Church Notes: church listed in Mérimée [ref.: PA00114923]
Listed by Enlart (1902) as a 14th-15th century font mounted on a square base, a development of the earlier five-support bases [NB: the church was badly damaged by bombings in WWI; photographs of the church interior taken in 1916 and 1917 show a modern font in good state in the interior of the church, in the midst of all the rubble and destruction; we have not been able to find the whereabouts of the font of the 12th-century (?) church here. The entry for this church in Eglises de l'Oise site [www.eglisesdeloise.com/monument/tracy-le-val-eglise-saint-eloi/] [accessed 1 July 2017 does not mention a font in it. A text in the Wikipedia entry https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Église_Saint-Éloi_de_Tracy-le-Val [accessed 1 July 2017] reads: "En quittant cette église, classée parmi les monuments historiques, nous voyons dans la chapelle des fonts une cuve baptismale, qui, probablement, est là depuis bien longtemps, car, ainsi que les principales parties de l'édifice, elle porte le cachet du XIIe siècle." The quote is referenced as: 'Les étapes d'un touriste en France : Promenades et excursions dans les environs de Paris. Région du Nord', par Alexis Martin (1893-1894).
