Harold (or any other interested person), I don't personally have any information on this line, but you can check out the following website and contact the person connected with it for more information. http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~lpproots/Fountaine/ You can also visit the web page I have created for links to other FONTAINE sites of interest. www.geocities.com/heartland/farm/5233/ I'm hoping this will help answer your questions since I can not help you. My main interest is in the Canadian FONTAINE lineages, but I know of some of the people researching the Huguenot lines.
