    1. [DELAWARE] SYLVESTER DEPUTY descendants
    2. Gwen Coleman
    3. I would like to contact any one who is researching the descendants of Sylvester Deputy who received a warrant from William Penn of 350 acres of land in Milford District, Cedar Creek Hundred, April 8 1741. I have much information on this family but need to know what church they were affiliated with and where early family was buried. Would also like to know the original surname; was it perhaps DePuy? It is my understanding that the family were French Hugenots who fled to Wales to avoid religious persecution and there changed the name to Depaty, then changed spelling to Deputy when they arrived in America about 1650. Thanks for any help. Gwen
