For example what time scale are we talking about and what location? Even the country would help. Likewise there is really no such thing as Huguenot names. Because one person or family with a particular name may have been Huguenots it does not follow that all people with that name are also Huguenots. In looking at the Huguenot Society Quatro Series Volume XVIII I do find that three people with the name Le Noir were denizised. Two, John and Martha his wife on 8 March 1631/2 and a Peter on 22 June 1694. There are also 30 references to the name Lenoir in the Bibliotheque Genealogique de Paris. I can find no references to the other names you mention in the above locations. Would be happy to look further on receipt of more information. Roy Day.
Has anyone found Maurans or Merans among the Walloon surnames? I was quoted in a family history as saying I'd been to Ile de Ré and La Rochelle to research the surname MAYRANT but the truth is I was in Geneva and went down to Montpelier. I never looked for Mayrant or variations of the name. Dolly I know from others' research that the ancestors of James Nicholas Mayrant's wife Susannah Gaillard were living in Languedoc during the 16th c ; has anyone found any French research on the MAYRANTs? What was the original spelling of the name? It certainly looks English to me... there was a Josephine Mauran mentioned in John Paul Jones' history in which John Mayrant was mentioned but I've never seen Josephine's parents' names... anyone?

Hello, Looking throuh my list of surnames, it may be possible that there are some Huquenots among them. I hope someone recognize the listed names. Hendrika (not really french) Affourtit Louis Lenoir Catharina Uriot Claude Joseph Uriot Leo de Groes Email : L.degroes@euronet.nl
Fellow listers -- here is another installment of surname extracts from the BT's of the parish of All Saints, Canterbury, Kent, ENG. Dates included here are 1701-1730. These records have been filmed by LDS and are on # 1736584. My caution of yesterday also applies here -- ie. by posting these extracts, I am not saying that the individuals mentioned are Huguent/Walloon. I am merely saying that the possibility exists and that more research is required in order to verify the information. If anyone is interesting in any of the following names, I hope they will post to share with the list. Regards to all, Andrea 1700/1 Feb 26 Bapt Ann & Susanna, twin daus of Charles & Susanna FORQUET 1701 Apr 10 Bur James SIX 1701 Apr 27 Bur Joyce, dau of Widow LEZORT 1701 May 14 Bur Susan DETHWOIT(?)

Listers -- Some time ago, I mentioned that I would be posting surname extracts from the BT's (Bishop's Transcripts) of All Saints parish in Canterbury, Kent, ENG. Finally, here are those extracts! . These records have been filmed by LDS and are on film # 1736584. The time period is 1662/3 to 1700. I also have extracts from later dates but will post those separately, another time By extracting and posting the following names, I am not implying that this provides proof that all were Huguenot or Walloon. I think there is a possibility but further research is needed. Also, if you find a name here which interests you, please conduct your own personal search of the records in order to verify the information. Do not rely on these extracts solely. Hope this is of help to others on the list.

Fellow listers -- Please check out a new link which is now on our list website at http://www.island.net/~andreav/index.html. The new link is headed H-W-E Surnames List and it's is in the section titled Beyond the Basics. If you've submitted surnames in the past, please check to see that information listed is accurate. Corrections should be sent to me privately, off-list. If you have new names to submit, please post them to the list. I am currently working on another link which is an important part of the Surnames List -- the one headed Which surnames are Huguenot names? from The Basics section -- and hope to have that functioning soon. I will post with that info when it's done. Then I think the website will have to stay as it is until the New Year. All for now. Let me know what you think of the H-W-E Surnames List. Andrea

Dear John and other Huguenot listers, As mentioned below in my last message, I ordered the Friedrichstal church records book from Heritage Books. It came today. It is wonderful! It has a short introduction about the town and founding, transcriptions of the baptisms, marriages and a few deaths in the community from 1698 to 1812. Also, it has a very helpful index of names and a great translation glossary in the back of words in the records. The earlier records are in French and later are in German. Here is the information on the book: Friedrichstal Church Records 1698 - 1812, by Cathryn S. Dippo 1999, Heritage Books, Inc. 1540E Pointer Ridge Place, Bowie, Maryland, 20716, USA Phone: 1-800-398-7709 www.heritagebooks.com I just found the book listed in their catalog as I was searching or another book. The cost to me (I live in USA) was $61.00 + $4.00 shipping The surnames that I am most interested in are: FUESSLER/FUSSLER/FUSSELER GORENFLO HORNUNG I'll be glad to check the index for surnames for anyone and if there are entries you need, I'll look them up. Some names have many, many entries, so in that case, you'd probably do better to get your own copy.

Hi, fellow listers -- A bulletin for your information. Due to upgrading which is being done on some mailing lists, Rootsweb has informed me that there will be a slow-down in any postings sent to *some lists* -- and H-W-E is one of them -- starting Friday, 8 December 2000 at 7:00 A.M. Pacific Standard Time (GMT -08:00). The entire upgrade is expected to take 10 hours (ie. lasting until 5:00 P.M. PST). During that time, Rootsweb has stated that they "will not process mail for most of that time." What does this mean for you as a subscriber? Does it mean that you will still be able to post to the list, as usual? Yes, but your messages will not reach the list until *after* the upgrade is completed. So, messages will not be lost but they will be delayed. Therefore, if you send a post to the list, it may be a few hours before you see your copy come back to you as it normally does and for it to appear in the archives. Similarly, for anyone who unsubscribes during that time, the request will not take effect immediately (as it normally does) but it will be saved and then processed by Rootsweb when the upgrade is done. What's the reason for the upgrade? I'm not sure. However, Rootsweb has says that it is "desperately needed". I'm guessing it's to beef up the lists' ability to handle increased demand as more and more people subscribe and send posts to all Rootsweb lists. We've already seen, in the last year, the mess that can happen when list archives reach their capacity. We wouldn't want anything similar to happen to the lists. Andrea
Having hovered in the background fro a few weeks to pick up the ethos of this list I now venture to ask my questions. My wife's family name is BUGLASS and they come from Berwickshire in the Borders. The name is often spelt BOOKLESS and you can see where the two spellings come from when you listen to Scottish border dialect - either could transcribe what you hear. We have traced the family to 1690 (maybe 1660 if you are prepared to take a few risks) and always assumed that it was a Scottish border name. But the other day we were assured that the name was Hugeunot. Since then I have been reading the hsitory of the Hugeunots and noticing the names but there seems to be none that could have been converted into BUGLASS. My questions are: 1. What connections do the Hugeunots have with the Scottish border country ? 2. Has anyone come across the BUGLASS family as a Huguenot family ? Thanks Cyril
Listers -- Here's a website I've newly discovered and one which you may also want to have a look at. It's called the French Migration Resource and it's at: http://www.frenchmigration.com/default.asp. The site is not about Huguenot migration -- it's about any ancestors, of any kind, leaving France during any time period for other shores (which seem to be predominantly US shores, judging from the quick look I had) -- but still well worth a visit for anyone with French ancestry. You can submit a query on this site about your family, also read the queries of others. Many appear to be asking about migration of French ancestors in later time periods (1800's) but some do mention Huguenot connections in earlier time frames. There are also links to book lists (some about Huguenots) and also links to lots of French sites. You can also connect here to two other pages, ie. German Migration Resources and Ireland Migration Resources. Three other links to similar pages for England, Italy and Spain are not working but I would keep checking them (they're probably "under construction"). Hope some of you out there find this info interesting/useful. Andrea
Hello, listers -- Re: 1874 book by Samuel SMILES: "The Huguenots in France: After the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes' which was mentioned by Jim <jamesr@sprint.ca> today (5 Dec). If anyone is interested in a copy of their own, there are two used ones listed for purchase online at www.bookradar.com. Both are available from US book dealers (one in NY, the other in VA) and the price is in US dollars (one at $24 and the other at $50). I have no explanation for the vast difference in these two prices. The condition of both books is described and, obviously, for books that are c130 years old, they are not in pristine shape. By posting this message, I am not advertising for Bookradar or recommending them. And I do not have any financial interest in this company. I am merely letting you know that this resource is one to check if you are looking for out-of-print or hard-to-find books. Often, copies of books are located in the UK as well as North America. In these cases, prices are quoted in pounds sterling. I haven't seen any books listed through book dealers in Australia/New Zealand but I suppose it's possible. Andrea
Hi list, An excellent, very descriptive, book was written by a Samuel Smiles about 1874. It is titled `The Huguenots in France: After the Revocation of the edict of Nantes'. There is also a subtitle which makes reference to the Vaudois. It was published in 1874 by W. Ibister & Co., London, England. This book is out of print, but must be available for on-site reading at some libraries. About 5 years ago I read a copy which a late friend had inherited. He would not part with it, and now his widow has said I could have it, but it is not to be found among his possessions. I suspect it is hidden in a safety-deposit box somewhere, which may never be found. Good Luck in trying to find a copy. Jim, in Canada.

My message for 12/5/00 indicated a date of 1710 it should be 1170.
In an earlier mail I mentioned the above and refereed to the information they contain. The current issue, for example, contains the following articles. Huguenots in the Electorate of Hanover and their British links by Andreas Flick Foreigners and freedom: the Huguenot refuge in Dublin City, 1660 - 1700 by Mary Clark. Huguenot storytellers in London in the 18th century by Georgia Cosmos There are many more articles, the above is just a sample. They all make reference to Huguenot names and for anybody with interests in the above are well worth a look. Roy Day.
Hi Pinky, If you look in the HWE web site archives you will find some messages from Patrick Malan for example 21 Jan 2000. Where he describes Waldensians (Waldensers). Waldensians were protestants from Lyon, I think, led by a man named Vaudes ~ 1710. Vaudes group became "Waldes" > Waldensians. They migrated to Duaphin in France then to Savoy, then the Piedmont in what is now Italy, then Switzerland, then up into Germany. ----- Original Message ----- From: Pinkynorm@aol.com To: johnandcarolyn@dellnet.com Sent: Monday, December 04, 2000 8:52 PM Subject: Re: [HWE] Huguenot towns in south west Germany I see my town, Annweiler, listed as a Waldenser town. I know there were many Huguenot families there, but what does Waldenser mean? Thanks, Pinky Palladino
