I know Mermoz flew in South America, and I kind of remember another
french aviator, don't recall now. May be Bellonte, or Coste?
Their company at that time was called Lat�co�re.
May be search under that name.
Otherwise, there is a "mother" site for aviation:
http://search.totavia.com/
with many sections, including "History", and that should lead you there.
