Bourlémont
[edit]- ... that hill Bourlémont gets its name from its mention on the Cassini map in the 18th century?

No, not at all. Not only is the hook claim not clearly sourced, it is also completely wrong. The hill may have been first mentioned by name on the Cassini maps, but that doesn't mean that the map gave it its name of course. Normally, maps record the existing names, they don't invent names, and lacking evidence to the contrary, on has to assume that this happened here as well. "Bourlémont" is derived or evolved from "Notre-Dame-de-Bourg-les-monts", that's all. Fram (talk) 11:04, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
