    A guide to French orders?

    Hello,

    Recently I inherited an old French order. Very nice, but mysterious. It certainly was not awarded to my uncle, and I have no information, box, or any means of determining the maker, date, etc.? Is there a good guide in print or on-line, in English, French, or German? Thank you.

    I think it may be a society order - the French are fond of such things - for the Ligue Républicaine du Bien Public (Universal League of Public Welfare) which has quite a long history of working for the public good and has NGO status with the UN.

    I've seen a breast badge with the same design as that mounted on the star, suspended from a red ribbon with a central narrow black stripe, attributed to this League.
