A RootsWeb "Huguenot Discussion List" was established in 1998. Below, I have extracted some information from the archived messages listing additional Huguenot publications and how to research Huguenot publications via LDS records and film. Andrea Vogel discusses how to access the LDS website for publications and films which they hold. These film can be rented through a local LDS Family History Center (FHC). The "Archive of Messages for Huguenot Mailing List" can be accessed by going to the following website: http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl Enter: huguenot Happy Huntin' Jim Young - --------------------------- Date: Tue, 31 Aug 1999 21:30:59 -0700 From: "Andrea Vogel" <andreav@island.net> To: Huguenot-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [Huguenot] Hug. Soc. Publications (UK) ---------snip---------------- Some of the Hug. Soc. publications are held by the LDS Church at Salt Lake and some of these have been filmed so that they can be ordered and viewed at FHC's worldwide. For example, the Index to the account of the French Church in the Lady Chapel of St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin, 1666-1816 has been filmed (LDS film # 992663, British film section). You can search the LDS website for other publications/films they hold. However, in my experience, it is not always easy to find what you want. For example, if you want to have a list of all their holdings about Huguenots, this is not possible because they do not have a Subject Search option. You can go through Place Search, specifically Dublin in your case, but I just tried this and was unsuccessful at finding out which sub-heading Huguenots were listed under. (If you do a Place Search for England, they are listed under England, Minorities.There wasn't a Dublin, Minorities subheading but you might try Ireland, Minorities.) You can also search by call numbers if you know them. All Hug. Soc. publications seem to have the call number 942.1/L1 B4. Books about Ireland generally (not specifically Huguenots) have the call numbers 941.5 K2kn. Yet another way to search is through Author Search. I have found this to be the most successful. Once you know one author of a Hug. Soc. publication, for example, you can access them all because they are cross-referenced. For example, try S.J. Knox who is the author of Ireland's Debt to the Huguenots. This should get you into other listings on Huguenots in Ireland. Here is an outline of how to access all this on-line. Go to the LDS site at www.familysearch.org. Click on Custom Search (top right of home page) > click on Family History Library Catalog > click on All Searches > then click on either Author Search, Place Search or Call Number Search. Good luck.

There may be nothing but it's worth a try to find out. You may be pleasantly surprised. Here's how to do it -- go to the website at www.familysearch.org. Click on Custom Search (top right). Click on Family History Library Catalog. Click on Surname Search. Type in your surname and voila!! Hopefully something nice will pop up (a publication, a film, a website, etc). By the way, this does not have to be a surname which is in an actual title of a book -- it can be a peripheral surname which merely appears in a book. So it seems to be a pretty comprehensive search. Bon chance!

I didn't write down the year of its original publication, but this series has been republished by the Genealogical Publishing Co. In the 5th edition, vol. II (pp. 478-497), there is a table of the names of Huguenot families naturalized in Great Britain and Ireland between 1681 and 1712. The name "DeCamp" is listed on page 484. I was unable to locate any place in the book that identified which records were consulted for this table, or where they might be found. From the discussion, I'm asuming that these might be from oaths taken before the Lord Chancellor in Ireland, or the Court of Queen's Bench, the Court of Common Pleas, or the the Court of Exchequer in Great Britain. These lists seem to have been referred to as "Lists of Naturalized Foreign Protestants." If any one knows of where these original sources might be consulted, I would appreciate it if you would let me know. Thanks.
