Other Hermitage
It is possible that there were other chapels in Aouze, Aroffe, Aulnois, Autrey, Auzainvilliers, Bettegney St. Brice, Bussang Coussey, Dambain, Docelles, Domjulien , Dogneville, Epinal (Fountain Guéry) Gerardmer, Lamarche (St Etienne), Maxey-sur-Meuse (Beauregard), Norris, Offroicourt, Pompierre, Rambervillers (Saint Pantaleon), San Nabord, Saint Oyen-lès-Parey (Heinchemin ), San Prancher, Urville Uzemain, VIOCOURT, Vittel. But the documents are missing. There is a certainty for Bazoilles-sur-Meuse, Saint-Brice-Bettegney, Docelles. Topographical Dictionary indicates fifteen Lieudits "hermitage". Moreover, the name "chapel" or "hermitage" may have been given to isolated chapels, where there probably never had a hermit (Our Lady of the Goldfinch to Uzemain). It are also four lieuxdits called "The Hermit" in Bussang, Domjulien, St. Prancher and VIOCOURT.
