Hello Donna,

I assume the record you are interested in is the first one on this page (Archives départementales du Calvados, registres d'état-civil de Balleroy, NMD 1829-1843, image 292/326, n° 13). It is the death record of Jacques Labreque on 23 Feb 1842 in Balleroy, Calvados, France. Jacques was 77, born in Villiers, a beggar ("mendiant"), son of Jean Labreque and Jeanne Masson, both deceased, and widower of Margueritte Le Moigne.

Here (last record on the right) is his baptism (Archives départementales du Calvados, registres paroissiaux de Villiers-le-Sec, BMS 1615-1792, image 342/448) on 17 Jun 1765 in Villiers-le-Sec, Normandie, France. He is called Jean de la Breque there, so his LNAB should be "de la Breque".

Tell me if you need complete transcriptions (with the names of witnesses and such details).
