Excerpt from War Letters of Edmond Genet: The First American Aviator Killed Flying the Stars and Stripes The Genets are descended from Edme Charles Genet, who was secretary and interpreter to the Comte de Provence (subsequently Louis XVIII) and who died in 1780. Edme Charles, having lived long in England, became in France an author ity on English affairs and was a publicist of some importance. His numerous works consist of his torical essays, memoirs, and letters about the British constitution, British politics, and current events in England. Two of his children became dis tinguished, the first, Edmond C., was the famous, not to say notorious, Citizen Genet, whom the Revel utionary government in France sent as am bassador to the United States m 1792, and whose ln discretions led to his recall. He never returned to France, but settled at Albany, and subsequently married the daughter of Governor Clinton.
