HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.
Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.
We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.
Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..
We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.
As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.
We do not have ANY photos of this Nursery!

Please do not upload someone else's photos without their permission. Thanks!

Denis-Germain Dauvesse (1809-1870)
Paul Dauvesse
The nursery Etablissement Dauvesse in Orléans was established around 1820-1830. It was later taken over by Transon-Gombault, which in turn became D. Dauvesse under Denis-Germain Dauvesse. He was succeeded by his son Paul Dauvesse. The nursery was taken over in 1894 by Albert Barbier who worked there.
[From Roses et Rosiéristes de l'Orléanais, by François Joyaux, 2006, p. 17-18:] Dans la seconde m0itié du XIXe siècle, l'Etablissement Dauvesse fut également un de ceux qui, à Orléans, s'intéressèrent à l'obtention de variétés nouvelles. Cette pépinière, située rue Dauphine, à Orléans, était ancienne: elle existait déjà au début de la Restauration, vers 1820-1830, et produisait surtout des arbres fruitiers. Elle appartenait alors à Transon-Gombault, issue d'une nombreuse famille de jardiniers orléanais. ....De son coté, l'Etablissement Transon-Gombault accueillit un nouvel associé, D. Dauvesse...L'établissement, désormais connu suus le nom de D. Dauvesse, reprit alors une activité d'obtention, encore qu'assez réduite....Finalement, les Pépinères Transon Frères et D. Dauvesse passeront aux Barbier....
