Thank you for this information. Apparently if they were not Catholic perhaps that is why the records were not kept on them. That is why they were fleeing from Palatinate and perhaps only when they reached England via Holland did they make records of the refugees. ...Or perhaps their info is in Holland records? Don't know only guessing. The site Sue posted was very interesting... Seems their was upheaval in France and Western Germany from mid 1500s til late 1600s. The French Huegunots were fleeing too...Gayle L. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, May 23, 2001 5:30 PM Subject: Re: [KORNEGAY-L] A question to Ponder > Hi Shelia, > Good question!
