G'Day List I am new to this list and am seeking info and descendants of Antione Hanchard and Marie Dupont 1700+. Marie's parents Abraham Dupont and Jeanne Beaudemont had another daughter Jeanne. This family in London at least as early as 1683. Antione was an elder of St.Jean's Spitalfield, London. How can I find out more about this. He died in the huguenot hospital. Can anyone tell me the name of it and where it was. Family earlier at St Quentin and lived at Beauvais in Picardy both in France. Soon after Antione's father died in 1685 the family went to Holland where one family member married at the Walloon Church in Haarlem then the family members went to London, England circa 1691-1701 There are Jamacians and Americans named Hanchard and am wondering how they connect. What can people tell me about the Huguenot's and Wallons. Where they Calvanists? protestants. What was the reason they moved to Holland and England. Was it for trade or work? Is this right - (Huegenot churches are supposed to have provided money and men for the hanoverians against the 1715 and 1745 stuart rebellions. Walloons and huegenots helped found bank of england ) What or where in London was la providence ? My people were Silk Weavers and lived near Churches at Holborn, Stepney, Spitfields and Bethnal Green. Can I find out where they worked and Lived? Are sources available online. Have lots of BDB Parish entry data but would like to put flesh on the bones. I live in Australia so a bit hard to visit the London Archives for it. Look forward to finding out more about this new found branch of my family. regards Mike.
