    1. [HWE] DU BLES, DECAUFOUR and FOLLENFANT
    2. Bronwyn Stuckey
    3. I am a new subscriber to the list because I have suddenly found myself deep in Huguenot territory on my mother's side (Du Bles and Decaufour) as well as on my father's (Follenfant). My ggg grandfather Thomas Edward Hall, a musical instrument maker in London, was the son of James Hall and Mary Du Bles who married in 1797 in St Alphege in Canterbury. Mary Du Bles was the daughter of Eduard Francois Du Bles and Mary Cock, married 1774 in St Peter, Canterbury and Eduard Francois Du Bles was, I think the son of Charles Du Bles and Esther Decaufour, married in St Alphege 1741. I know that there was a Charles Du Bles who was a pastor of the French Protestant Church in Canterbury and I am wondering if it might be the same person. There always has been a family story of there being a French name Du Bles in the family but over the years the spelling has been corrupted to Dubeley and used as a middle name. I would be delighted to hear from anyone on this list with the same connections. Bronwyn Stuckey Australia
