Hi list, I received this from another mailing list! :) Happy hunting, Helen (DCGS) Message Boards - Huguenots http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/board/an/topics.immigration.us.hugenot [Note the spelling in the link; "hugenot" is not the correct spelling, but that's how they've spelled it at Ancestry. com.] While looking for information on several of my Huguenot [i.e., French Protestants] ancestors who emigrated from Europe to New York and Pennsylvania, the only message board I found regarding Huguenots appears to be limited to research on Huguenots in Europe. As a result, I requested a message board for research on Huguenots who settled in the American colonies in the 17th and 18th centuries; and happily, Ancestry.com approved the request. There were Huguenot settlements all along the eastern seaboard -- New England, New York, Pennsylvania (Lancaster, Berks, and Montgomery counties, especially), Virginia, and South Carolina -- and these are the ones of which I'm aware. If you have information or questions about your Huguenot ancestors, please post your questions to this message board, so we can all learn together. I am not -- repeat NOT -- the board administrator, nor am I an expert in this area. It is my hope that researchers with much more expertise in this area will share their knowledge via this new Huguenot Message Board. If you don't happen to have Huguenots in your background, please share this message with other lists to which you might subscribe. I currently subscribe only to Chester County and Delaware County, PA genealogy lists, and your passing this information along is appreciated. There is also a Huguenots listserv; but since I subscribed for the digest and this is a holiday weekend, I don't know yet how active the list is. Again, thanks for your patience with this non-Chester County/Delaware County related message. Karen (the other one in Delaware County!)
