There are lots of hits on "names" that lead to genealogical sites, but the genealogical sites then tell you that all the information is on ancestrydotcom. A membership there costs more than buying back the old homestead and diggin' holes in the old root cellar, which might tell you just about as much. It seems like none of my ancestors left me enough of a fortune to be able to use ancestrydotcom to find my ancestors.

To find a "Mougfot/Moudfot who made fiddles in France around 1900" one would probably need to find a place to consult French census records of the era - if there are such things.
