Lecouteulx de Canteleu in D35

There is a large mausoleum in D35 along chemin des Anglais between Distel (D41) and Couet (D35) that is unmarked except for a large letter "C" above the bricked up doorway. 

 It is located at Salomon 1855 map Ss45.

Salomon 1855 places a Champbel next to "C" at Ss46 in D35. I believe this is George Washington Campbell ((1799-1834), an American reportedly buried in D41 but the Registres journaliers d'inhumation list his grave behind Couet (D35) and just left of a Couteaux de Canteleux. 

It appears that the mystery "C" mausoleum is in fact the gravesite of Barthélemy-Alphonse Lecouteulx de Canteleu (1786-1840), Lecouteulx de Canteleu vicomtesse de Bizemont (died 1828), Mathilde Calhouet madame Lecouteulx de Canteleu (died and/or buried 1850), and Augustine-Mathilde Lecouteulx de Canteleu comtesse d’Anglesqueville (1814-1856).

DLocated in ivision 41, Avenue des Anglais, close to D35. The DBR places the graves together in the vicinity of Tonniges in D41, near Duhamel. Permanent.
