I am the descendant of SYLVESTER DEPUTY and would appreciate any help or advice in tracing the whereabouts of this family in Wales. The research of many persons agree that Sylvester was born in Wales, some saying that there was also an elder Sylvester born in Wales in the year 1637 and a son, also named Sylvester born in Wales about 1685 to 1697. Family legend also state that this family were French Huguenots who fled their homeland and settled in Wales where they adopted the name DUPATY then changed the name to DEPUTY after immigrating to the USA about 1695 to 1710. Name might have originally been DuPuy. To my knowledge no one on this side of the Atlantic has ever found a passenger record or other document to verify the exact date of their arrival. Would like to know of records in Wales that might be of help and wonder if there are volunteers who might have access to these records and be willing to help. By the way, I had occasion to visit briefly in your beautiful country and hope to someday be able to return for a more extensive visit. Gwen Coleman Texas, USA
