I just read your posting.My wife and I visited Sonceboz in 2010 and met Madame Genevieve Bourquin who still owned property there. She lives in Neuchatel now. She resumed her Bourquin surname after her divorce.She had donated back to the town the old lumber mill site on the little river which runs through the valley and it is being restored as a water driven mill/museum.This is the same property received as a fief in the 1500's.
