Here's another forwarded Board post, listers. Since it mentions the Channel Islands, I've already replied to it, giving info about two pages on our website which outline resources for the Channel Islands. In case you're interested in this too, those two pages are here: http://www.island.net/~andreav/hugschi.htm and here: http://www.island.net/~andreav/orgsaddschi.htm. And if you want to add a reply yourself, see end of message for instructions on how to do that. Andrea (as list concierge) -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] Date Posted on HWE Board : July 10, 2003 Message Board Post as follows: According to Agnew's Third Volume of the French Protestant Exiles from France (London: Reeves and Turner, 1874), the family FERDANT settled in UK and Ireland during the reign of Louis XIV (1643-1714). My 5XGreat-grandmother was a Marie FERDANT married in Guernsey, channel islands c.1740. Guernsey could easily have been a stopping-off place between France and England. Perhaps the family stayed? Does anyone know of any good resources where I can track the history of the family? I have so far come up completely blank. I know her father was born in France and his name was Jean. There seem to be FEUARDENTs in Grosville, but that is as much as I know. Any help hugely appreciated!
