Hi Tony, Yes, I would like a copy of the pamphlet you are talking about. I have seen references to this lecture but do not have the contents. I also ran across a booklet on eBay of all places "The London Apothecaries" first printed in 1932 (reprinted in 1955) by Cecil Wall, Senior Warden, Archivist to the Society with 3 drawings by Edward Swann and an engraving by Tho. H. Shepherd, 1830. Would you like for me to copy this for you also? I believe the Irish Huguenot Society Delaune listed on the Portarlington site is the son or grandson of Apothecary Delaune but I cannot obtain any other information from that Society other than that name is listed with others on the website. This booklet says the "Masters" arms are hanging in the society and Delaune was one of the earliest Masters but a source at the Hall told another newly found relative of mine that they were not there. I'm very interested in uncovering more Huguenot information but am having a hard time doing so. Gideon's father born in 1500s would have had to be one of the first of the group that started and it makes sense that he and family fled from France to England in 1585 or thereabouts and Gideon was established in King James Court as apothecary to the Queen. Any information you may have on the Huguenot connections of this family would be very important to me. His arms were issued March 7, 1612 apparently by King James order or parliamentary orders (can't find original source). I'm thinking that his entry into the King's court was eased by the fact that they were a noble family in France but who were Huguenots. The father William (Guillaume) was said to be a well known Pastor, Doctor and apothecary. Hope I haven't taken up too much space with the story but the man, his story and the Huguenots are inseparable to me.
