So nice to hear from you... Yes, I know its the same family, and I have a great deal of information on this line. The Julian's were Huegonot, from Vitre, France. Rene' De st Julian fought in the Battle of the Boyne in Ireland, and was paid for his services in land. He and one brother, possibly more, set out for America sometime between 1690 and 1695. I have no proof, but I have reason to believe that Rene was a widower with at least two adult sons at the time. They reached Bermuda, where Rene met Mary Margaret Bullock, a Scottish sea captain's daughter. Rene and Mary Margaret were married there, and they arrived in America between 1695 to 1700. After seeing the wilderness where he'd been given land, he chose to buy it instead, on the coast of the Carolinas, somewhere near the Savannah River, in a Huegont settlement. After two of their children died in an outbreak of yellow fever, they moved north to the shores of the Chesapeake Bay, settling in Bohemia Manor, in Cecil County, Maryland until 1737 when they moved to Frederick County, Virginia. It is believed by most, that both Rene and Mary are buried in the Old Opequion Cemetery, near Winchester, VA, as this land was given to Isaac Julien, who'd married the daughter of William Hoge, who held claim to the land.
