Comment
The Société Libre d'Agriculture et de Commerce was founded in 1797. With little activity, it was taken over by M. Delaitre in 1822. The revolution of 1830 brought it to a definitive halt. In 1832, it became the "Société libre d'agriculture, sciences, arts et belles-lettres de l'Eure".Interesting fact
