From The New Langwill Index:
Cabart WWI fl Paris 1842-c1869, a1893-p1950, fl Ezy 1869-p1950.
1842 established in Paris; 1869 re-located as THIBOUVILLE-CABART at Ezy as successors to THIBOUVILLE-BERANGER (according to Jansen, it was `Cabart' that was successor to `Thibouville-Beranger' while, according to Rendall, `Cabart' was successor to `Thibouville-Cabart'); according to Pierre, from a1893 certain artist-quality instruments made by `Thibouville-Cabart' were marked `Cabart'; in the 1930s `Cabart a Paris (Thiberville succr.), Ezy' (see THIBERVILLE) was reported; from c1946 used as trade-name by a French WWI maker/ dealer. The employment of this name by different persons at different times in different places has led to confusion and error.

I just sold a vintage Normandy clarinet to a gentleman in France who is restoring the old Thibouville factory and making a museum out of it. He is collecting older French clarinets of various makes, including Cabart. He is also collecting other woodwinds as well. His name is Francois Cambouville and his address is:
Francois Cambouville
Ancien Etablissmement Thibouville
21, rue Henri IV
27540 Ivy La Bataille
France
His email address is: thibou@club-internet.fr
He seems to be a very nice gentlemen. Although his English is not too good he is understandable. He does have a web site about his venture, but I've lost the address. Perhaps if you wanted to email him he could give you more information on Cabart.
