Juliet Brédif in Classic Printed Textiles from France 1760-1843, Toiles de Jouy published by Thames & Hudson suggests that resist printing was thought to be a kind of dying process and therefore not subject to the strict surveillance of Jouy (page 20). She also notes that In the Loire region, at Tournemine near Angers, the Danton Brothers sold their firm in 1775 to Le-Sourd-de-Lisle, Gautier et Cie; two other factories were founded in 1779 with handkerchief printing as their main activity. However, there does not appear to be a record of Thorel Freres.Mention is made in the Archives de Nantes of Guillou, Orrillard et Metzener, rue Dos de l'Ane, toiles destines aux cargaisons de la traite des noirs in 1787.
