Sherry, The initial family name appears to be DuPont or Dupont, but to find all index references to it you would need to check both that and Chambon, Du Chambon, and Duchambon, as the indexing methods vary, and the usage might vary from one generation to another. It is similar to George Gordon, Lord Byron, where family information might be found under Gordon or Byron. Écuyer is probably an indication of the occupation or position of the father, rather than part of the name. I don't think you would have a "dit" name for this one (nobility already had enough names to distinguish them). Cheers, Wayne Neily Peregrine Heritage Services, 562 Messenger Rd., Tremont, R.

When entering the name(s) you can add a prefix (such as Sieur) and a suffix (esquire), which will fall into place.....however I am unfamiliar with many of the French terms.
