Biographical information
Nicolas was described as a manufacturer of painted cotton fabrics on the marriage record of his daughter Anne Barbe (1812), and a manufacturer of Indienne cottons on the marriage record of his daughter Susanne (1807). It would appear that he did not have his own business, so he must have worked for one of the many printed fabric manufacturers in Mulhouse.
