Monique | Spelling of 'Pontchartrain' ? (16) | RE: Spelling of 'Pontchartrain' ? | 13 May 12 |
Pontchartrain comes from the Latin "Pontem carnotensem" ancient place name corresponding to a bridge (pont) on the Mauldre river on the road that used to go from Lutetia (Paris) to Chartres, the Carnutes' capital in the Antiquity. |
