Hi Elsie, I have copied this reply to the list as it may be of interest to others. Could I ask you if you know the area of France your GUERIN line was based. I ask as it is a name that is often occurring in my research and is usually associated with the La Tremoille family at Thouars which is in the Deux-Sevre department and the Poitou-Charentes Region. If so I can give you several leads to follow. The name GUERIN is also on the list of prisoners that were sent to the colonies. There is a Marie and a Philippe GUERIN. Again they could be associated with LERPINIERE, the name I research, as there was one in the same list. If they were connected then there is a fair chance your GUERINS sailed from Marseilles and were shipwrecked off the coast of Martinique. This would have been in 1687. No record of the other names. There is information regarding the above together with other information concerning Protestants that left France for other parts. These records are at the Archives nationale, Centre des archives d'outre-mer at Aix-en-Provence. Unfortunately, unlike most other French archives they refuse to provide any information and insist it be done through a professional researcher, which so far I have been unable to find. Has anybody any ideas? If all else fails I will make a holiday out of it during the summer and pay them a visit. Roy. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Elsie H.

Dear Roy, Our GUERIN family came from St. Nazaire, Saintonge, France. Mathurin, Peter (Pierre) Jr. , Vincent and Thomas and possibly some sisters, were the children of Pierre GUERIN and Jeanne BILLIBEAU of St. Nazaire, Saintonge. The parents did not come to America and were probably killed in France. The four brothers came to Charleston, SC about 1680 or a couple years after. Other family members, Daniel GUERIN/GUERRANT came to Manankin, Virginia and Etienne GUERIN came to New Rochelle, NY. They could have been cousins to the Charleston, SC group and both were from St. Nazaire, Saintonge, too. My ancestor, Thomas GUERIN, married Mary FAURE/FORD in Charleston, SC and went to Morris Co. NJ in 1713.
