    Notes

    Les Archives Nationales d'Outre-Mer, or ANOM (called Le Centre des Archives d'Outre-Mer prior to 2007), Aix-en-Provence, holds a major collection of archival material on leprosy in the former French colonial possessions. There is material on Indochina, including Laos and Cambodia and Hanoi and Saigon, from the late 1880s until the mid 1940s. For example, the Ministerial fonds, Series Geographiques and the series Services Sanitaires et Assistance Publique hold material on Guyana (1818-1942), Inde (Pondicherry) (1836-1861), Madagascar 1896-1920, Nouvelle Caledonie 1915, Oceanie 1912-1924, Reunion 1831 - 1908, Cameroun, and Guadeloupe 1823 - 1880.
