I wonder whether you lovely people can help me with another bit of translation? The online IGI has Jaques TABOURDEUX Baptism details as follows: JAQUES TABOURDEUX Male Birth: 13 OCT 1710 Christening: 22 OCT 1710 La Patente French Huguenot, Spitalfields, London, England Parents: Father: JEAN TABOURDEUX Mother: MAGDELEINE COQUEL But the extract from the Huguenot records has the following information: 22/10/1710. Tabourdeux, Jaques, f. de Jean de la fonds, ouvrier en soye et de Rachel Brique, dem. En Monmouth St, Stepney. P Led. Pere M Marie Tabourdeux. Ne le 13e I am sure that both records are for the same person, but what is 'Jean de la fonds' and where does 'Rachel Brique' fit in the picture? Is it possible that Rachel was Jean's mistress, Jaques was illegitimate, but was baptised and bought up by Jean and Magdeleine? Also, is 'Led. Pere' really the name of the Godfather? I realise that I am inventing history here, so I hope you can help...
