A copy of the baptismal record from the parish church of Versailles of the child Jean Amilcar from Senegal who was adopted by Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette. From
Louis de Bourbon et la famille Royale de France: "Louis XVI has always felt great compassion for his people. With
Marie-Antoinette, they even collected and adopted several children
including Jean Amilcar, born in 1782 in Senegal and mentioned on 20
August 1787 on the register of baptisms of Versailles."
