    3. Ancestory.com has a new database that is free to look at for the next 10 days. I know there are quite a few on the list with French Huguenot ancestors. Thought you would enjoy viewing this database. Slan go foill, Margaret (Mairead) <<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>> Virginia Huguenot Refugees, 1700 Religious beliefs lead many European residents to seek new lives in British North America in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. This database contains the ship listings of a number of Huguenot refugees who traveled to Virginia in 1700. The two ships, the Mary and Ann and the Peter and Anthony, arrived in James City on the 12th of August and 20th of September respectively. Each record reveals the adult passenger's name and number of minors in their company. In some cases the person's previous occupation and residence is provided. To those seeking Virginian and Huguenot ancestors, this can be a useful collection. Bibliography: Anonymous. "Two Ships to Virginia." Orem, UT: Ancestry, Inc., 1999.
