Hello Listers, It is with some degree of excitement that write. We are hot on the trail of researching yet another family that may as yet prove to be genetically related to our clan. Does anyone have any information regarding the BASNAGE family prior to 1580 or even after ? We can begin with this fellow as his bigraphy indicates that he was indeed of the Huguenot faith. Nicolas BASNAGE seems to have been a Huguenot minister (Pastor)in the Manche region of France. His wife was Esther de Messy if that is of any assistance. Kind Regards, Peter Leroy
Dear Lesley, Well, I'm out here!! I gather that there have been problems with the rootsweb server - perhaps that's why you haven't heard from anyone.

Dear Fellow Listers, I have been enjoying listening. Tired to make my first contribution a fortnight ago and since then -Silence I am receiving nothing and get my messages rejected. I miss your company!! If anyone receives this could you please make contact.?Lesley.
Lesley: I check out each message, but at this point have focused on only one Huguenot name: REVELEE, and its many spellings. So, I have admittedly not been active with questions and answers, and otherwise involved. My frustration in finding when the actual first Revelee, Reville, etc. came here is such, that I quit looking for a while. One gentleman with a small dedicated group has done a fine job and thank him and the others so much. No doubt I have other ancestors who were Huguenots and I don't recognize the name as such. Would it be possible to have a few names inserted in the list? Just those known to have entered the country by the early 1700s? This would eliminate a lot for ME. I guess this is selfish. But I do feel this family came very early for us. Any help is gratefully accepted and most appreciated. If I can be of any help, please ask, although with Huguenots I am probably blank. Tie a knot and hang on. Marlene

Hi folks Many thanks to everybody that replied to my request for feedback on the possibility of Hug Soc material being made available on CDRom. All the 20 or more replies that I received indicated a strong interest in obtaining material on CDRom and I'll feed that back to the meeting this evening. When it's appropriate to do so, I'll let you all know the outcome of the discussion. Regards Tony Fuller
I am a member of the Society and would be willing to purchase the type of material on CD that you propose. Good luck with your effort, Len Cail. Newcastle pon Tyne.
Tony, I think those CDroms are necessary to reduce the direct consultation of old papers/docs who are in danger of overuse and of destruction because of their acid paper content. Thus I think your cd-rom would be welcomed by public or university libraries and genealogical organizations and individual historians or genealogists. Luc
Listers -- re: the latest thread begun by Tony regarding cost of CDs, etc. I'm not sure where the following info fits in here (or even if it does) but I just thought I'd mention -- so everyone is aware -- that Rootsweb has what is called their Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) which applies to both their mailing lists and message boards. A portion of the AUP concerns posts of a commercial or monetary nature -- which are a no-no. The exact quote from the AUP says -- "Content submitted for the purpose of commercial use, advertising or fee for service is prohibited." Now, obviously, this means a post saying, for example, something like -- "I have some CDs which I'm selling. They're a bargain at (fill in amount). Contact me at (address) to fill your order." I want to stress that I *don't* think that Tony's post (and the replies to it) fall into this category. For one thing, Tony is asking a question about a theoretical CD which does not, as yet, exist. On the other hand, though, there has been some discussion of money and costs. So, I thought it wise to mention this whole topic and request that everyone be sensitive to it. To be on the safe side, it might be best to mention no cost at all and instead ask that subscribers contact you personally for more info/details. In other words, keep all mention of money off the list. That way, there is no danger of treading onto AUP territory, even if inadvertently. Again, I stress that this is *not* a criticism of any messages which have been posted to the list. It's meant, instead, to alert you to the existence of this particular statement in the AUP and the fact that it applies not only to the HWE list and Board but to all mailing lists and message boards. If anyone is interested in reading the entire Rootsweb AUP, it's here at: http://www.rootsweb.com/rootsweb/aup.html. The quote from the AUP which I cited above can be found on that page under the heading User-provided Content. Andrea (as list concierge)
Hi As a new (prospective) member of the society I would love to purchase data on CD. I would go as far and say I much prefer to have my data in that format but I work on IT and that's what I am used to. As I have only just discovered my Huguenot ancestry I would be mortified if there was information that had been available and I'd missed it. I personally can't get to London much to any research so data on CD is my preferred method for starters. Can't comment on the price as I'm not sure how much you're intending to put on one CD. I don't have a problem paying the £40-£50 for a county's census or £5 for a parish register transcription. Does that give you a gauge as to where I'm coming from.

Ah! Well young Fuller, I would be one of those 'For' such a proposal. However! It would surely depend on what was actually on the CD's that would be of personal interest. I have always assumed that I have many of the tendencies attributed to the normal humanoid. Ergo, "what's in it for me?" As for the price suggested. I would consider the suggestion of 17 quid to be reasonable 'IF' there was something "in it for me" Mathematics is not a strong point, but I counted on my extremities and discovered that 17 is approximate to $30 of the U.S. type. And that to some, who wish something for nothing, may be on the high side. In short! I agree with the price and proposal Kind Regards, Peter Leroy
Have you ever wondered who were the first Huguenot or Walloon folks ? I wonder if anyone knows or is there simply no record of who that actual first person was to stand up and say they were ? Kind Regards, Peter Leroy
Well Helloooooo Bosslady Andrea.. now that I have adjusted my glasses and recovered from eyestrain at reading your note for being away from school.. what can be said in conclusion ? Nil / Nada ? Nought? Andrea is all things to us subscribers and her (your) diligence in keeping us in control and keeping the HWE list maintained in such a high degree of friendliness is appreciated by all. It is my hope that, as Mr. Arouet would say, all is for the best in the best of all possible worlds.. he said, that well Dr. Pongloss did, but I doubt he was a Huguenot ok ok so this topic (Note!) was really a genuine enquiry as to the well being and all that of our wonderful concierge, Andrea. Who said sucking up to the boss ? Hmm now what a great idea . The answer to many of our questions are quite often to be found within the archives or the webpage for HWE. So! Welcome home bosslady and now down to the nitty gritty of all things Huguenot and Walloon. Kind Regards, Peter Leroy

Hello, all -- thanks for the welcome-back wishes a few days ago, Peter & Andrew and others. It's nice to know that I was missed. At the same time, I realize that my absence was so long that some of you may have completely forgotten me. And, of course, I'm a complete stranger to those who are new to the list. (We still number about 350 subscribers in total, by the way.) Peter, I'm relieved to know that a note explaining my long absence from the list isn't required. But perhaps the right thing to do would be to provide at least some explanation, however inadequate. First of all, sorry to have left HWE in the lurch, as it were. And with no notification or explanation, either. But, as I said a day or so ago, you were all getting along quite well without me. I knew that because I was keeping an eye on HWE. There are many Rootsweb lists, you know, where the list admin seldom or never makes an appearance and most of the list subscribers are completely ignorant as to who the list admin is (or even if there is one). Anyway, things other than HWE have been keeping me occupied these past several months -- but it was nothing earth-shattering or cataclysmic. Just the stuff of life that sometimes carries us along. Ordinary events like -- there were ongoing computer problems as well as responsiblities of home and family, visits from friends and relatives, a couple of little holidays, the need to complete some projects that I had put off for too long, etc. I'm sure you all know what I mean. "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans." (John Lennon) And, lastly, I must confess that a deep and despairing melancholy came over me in the first few months of the year. I needed time to withdraw into a little shell for while, so that I could ponder the state of humanity on this planet at this particular time in history. I didn't come to any happy conclusions. So, there you have it. And now, as I suggested in one of my messages a couple of days ago, I'd like to get back to the business of this list. Therefore, in order to keep this post at least a bit on-topic..... A few days ago, on 28 Sept, Peter asked "why a Walloon is so called". Hmmmm, well.....I wonder if there are answers to be found on our HWE website at: http://www.island.net/~andreav/hugswalls.htm? See what do you think. Andrea (list concierge)
Dear Herman I can only give you general impressions of the Dauphine and then try to relate them to journies that would have been undertaken in the 16th and 17th centuries. The Dauphine commences at Grenoble, its original capital. The region is mountainous with peaks between 2 and 3000 metres, some are higher. It extends eastwards to the French Alps that border Switzerland and Italy. It always surprises me that Turin in the Piedmont region of Italy is relatively close to Grenoble, only about 100 miles in a straight line. Indeed people from Lyons and Grenoble travel on day excursions by coach to shop in Turin. Of course this is made easy by the modern tunnels. To have made this journey in earlier times would have meant following the main river valleys, probably the Isere and the Arc and then crossing the Col du Mont-Cenis at an altitude of 2083 metres, a journey twice as long. I doubt if routes were any more than tracks even along the rivers. Modern roads along the same route are winding and have frequent barriers to prevent the fall of rock on to the road. There are concrete snow and ice shelters to allow avalanches to pass over. One can imagine tracks that were rock strewn in the summer and impassible in winter because of snow or melt water. I received the following commentary from Ken Baldry who is personally familiar with the crossing from the Vaud to Piedmont. "The only way from Vaud to Piedmont would be over the Great St Bernard Pass(2470metres), which would have been impassible in Winter for ordinary refugees but ok in Summer, as it was a well-maintained pack-horse track (now a road - I thumbed a lift over it in 1999). Summer, however, means July to September, as this was the period of the Little Ice Age. " This is the journey that would have been made by the Vaudois prior to 1536. The Vaud, as you may know, is a small region on the NE shore of Lake Geneva, so their route across similar terrain would have been to the southeast. Nowadays there are routes into the mountains to well known ski resorts. The rivers are fast flowing and inundated with fallen rock, some appeal to white water canoists. I believe that tracks would have petered out and are unlikely to have offered ways from one country to another. The route that your ancestors followed from the Luberon in Provence would have been over similar terrain, they were obviously travelling northwards to Switzerland. The mountains and the terrain south of Grenoble are much less rugged but they would have encountered just the same difficulties further north. People were travelling with children and the remnants of their possessions so timing would have been crucial. I hope that at least some of this is useful. It is very beautiful country which belies the difficulties that fleeing peoples would have experienced at the time.
