Miracle of GONESSE (95) in 1785 - Historical reminder: On June 30, 1785, young Geneviève Baffart, lame from birth and paralyzed for 3 years, was dragging herself on crutches to mass. She fell in prayer in front of the statue of Saint Peter adorning the portal of the Church of Saint-Pierre-Saint-Paul in Gonesse; 2 doctors attested to the cure, popular fervor was unleashed and Gonesse became a favored place of worship; Jean-François VAUVILLIERS, professor at the Collège de France and member of the Royal Institute, wrote to the Archbishop to support the veracity of the facts and to lend his respectability, but the Archbishop remained very measured, reluctant to initiate the long procedure in Rome; The Revolution swept all this away, the statue of Saint-Pierre was hidden and preserved, Geneviève married and had a son who became a priest and vicar of Gonesse / The document presented is an entirely autographed notebook by Jean-François VAUVILLIER, entitled "Miracle de Gonesse", in which he has preserved copies of his letter to the Archbishop of Paris dated August 29, 1785, Monseigneur's reply of September 1 and the second letter from the parish priest of Gonesse - 16-page notebook, small in-4, on laid paper bound with silk ribbon - Jean-François VAUVILLIER (1737-1801), a Hellenist and member of the Institut, embraced the new ideas and was a key figure in Paris during the Revolution, as President of the Commune, he saved Paris from famine through his fair management of supplies (a Paris street bears his name).
