1. [HWE] Huguenot Ancestors and Literacy [1]
Hello to you, Next time you happen to be staring at your collection of names associated with the dead, or as some may wish to refer such a collection.. you ancestorial history, give some thought as to just how did they record that history. Ah the writer of this post has been delving too far into Sartre or some other wally weirdo again, you may suggest. Actually it was not him, more Mr. Arouet and some of his writings. Seems he touched upon a small piece of history that many of us are not aware. It seems
2. Re: [HWE] Huguenot Society of GB and Ireland [1]
Hi folks The email address for the Hug Soc is one of the addresses within University College, London (UCL) where the Library is based as part of UCL's Special Collections. I do have some email addresses for various officers of the Society but as they were sent to me privately and they do not appear in the Members List for 2003, I'd rather not give them out. Markus, I suggest that you try the unis web site www.ucl.ac.uk and follow the links for the Library from there and then follow the links for the Spec

4. [HWE] Holiday in France [1]
Hi Guys Just been to Bergerac (in France on hols) and came across a large Protestante Temple in the town square. Have pics but not downloading them until I get back to the UK 12 Sept - if anybody wants a copy, available then. I'll also post the full story of the Temple at the same time. In the meantime, La Rochelle and Isle d'Re beckon Regards Tony Fuller
5. [HWE] Synod of Dordt [1]
I wonder if anyone knows of the 'Synod of Dort' ? 1618 and it seems that not everyone was all excited about this Calvinism. Especially is one were a follower of Jacob Arminius. Was anyone persecuted for being one of his followers ? The Arminiainists had much difficulty with Beza and Calvin, so much so that in 1610 a nifty little document was produced 'The Remonstrance'. Now all you folks who are of Dutch ancestry will most likely know of this document which was directly opposite the thoughts of Calvini
6. Re: [HWE] Synod of Dordt [1]
Ah memories of my highschool love Gerda van Tilbourg, tis odd how the human mind works at times, just seeing a similar can provoke all manner of delight. > I assume this synod has taken place in Dordrecht > (Netherlands) as Dordt was the old name of the town. Hmm an atlas, my computer desk for an atlas. Perhaps another Walloon descendent can advise if Dordrecht and Dordt are one and the same. Gerda assumes that this is so ? Hmm I have no idea now and so I shall ask. Ar the Arminsians also Walloon ? Ki
7. [HWE] Huguenots - Far East [1]
Hello Fellow Listers Now it has come to my mind that not all refugee Huguenots surely wandered off to far off North America, Wales, Ireland, Belgium, England, South Africa or Scotland. I wonder if any made the journey to the East Indies, afterall the Dutch did have a huge stake in that region. Perhaps some settled in India or even far off Cathay ? I know some did make it as far as Australia, although they were more likely the ancestors of Huguenots. Did Dirk Hartog have Walloon crew members ? For those
8. [HWE] help re books [1]
I need help from someone more familiar with London libraries than myself. (I have used PRO, SOG, and Guildhall on earlier visits) In my research into General William John ARABIN I have come across references to him taking part in plays- in one case 'before their majesties at Richmond' and in 'The Prince of Wales Company of Comedians' (c1788). He was known to have been a friend of the Prince until they fell out over an insult. Where would I find books please on that period, the Royal family etc. that I coul
9. Re: [HWE] How much ? [1]
#1 in 1530 had a purchasing power of #328.80 in Dec. 1998, according to a statistical table compiled by the Bank of England. It is based on the Retail Price Index based at Jan 1987 =100 which does not take into account the cost of real property or the level of wages. This means that your 1,300,000 livre bribe today might be worth approx. #42,770,000. Barbara Holt ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Monday, September 15, 2003 4:17 AM

11. Re: [HWE] Huguenot - Wales [1]
Many, many thanks Peter Leroy. Just knowing that there definitely were Huguenots in Wales who, from there could easily have gone to Ireland where known family have lived for three hundred years, has given me fresh heart. I suspect our name could have been Cappell. regards, Coral (Cupples) ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Saturday, September 20, 2003 1:59 PM Subject: [HWE] Huguenot - Wales > In one of the moments of pondering, t
12. [HWE] He Said What ? [1]
Hello Listers, And some suggest that my English is not so good. The following is a translation from Latin to English now imagine trying to figure this out if you are a relative of the aforesaid Robert Malet. The purpose of this minor post is to offer that you aren't necessarily seeing what you think you read. Once a document is translated try and doscover what it actually is telling you before you enter data to your computer. The land of Robert Malet. Fredrebruge Hundred and half Glorestorp. Godwin, a

hmmm the travelling Fuller is obviously enjoying life to the fullest. Why does jealousy rise in my blood. I for one am most interested in the temple story and associated pictures. I am sure we all await the return of the traveller to the little island of the mainland. Kind Regards, Peter Leroy

15. [HWE] Huguenots - England [1]
"About 1700 there were 35 French churches in London and suburbs, 11 of these in Spitalfields. The French church in Threadneedle Street was the oldest in London and the one to which refugees reported for recognition. Threadneedle Church received the Huguenot Calvinists while the French Episcopal Church in Savoy received Protestents of the Lutheran persuasion. New settlements required new churches such as Bristol, Exeter, Plymouth, Stonehouse, Dartmouth, Barnstable, and Thorpe-le-Soken. In many of these congr

Since LaTrobe has made an entry into the thread, in the probate records held by the Borthwick Institute of Historical Research (University of York, England) is: 1830 April 350 La Trobe, The Revd James Gottlieb of Fulneck, P.Calverley Vol 193 To unpack this a little, these are the English probate records that were processed by the Consistory Court of York, of the Archdiocese of York which covers most of Northern England. Probate records in England were dealt with by the Church of England until 1858. The

19. [HWE] La Trobe [1]
The following details about La Trobe appears in a site in the library named after him on the street named after him in Melbourne, Victoria. Charles Joseph La Trobe was the first Superintendent of the Port Phillip District from 1839 to 1850 and first Lieutenant-Governor of the new colony of Victoria, Australia from 1851 to 1854. Washington Irving describes him as "a man of a thousand occupations; a botanist, a geologist, a hunter of beetles and butterflies, a musical amateur, a sketcher of no mean pretens
20. Re: [HWE] SELLON [1]
Peter - Lydia Sellon was a daughter of the afore mentioned Rev. William Sellon. She married the Monrovian Benjamin Henry La Trobe, (his uncle being a Monrovian Bishop) who was educated in Germany. He penned a delightful series of extraordinarily scurrilous pen pictures of all his Sellon in-laws, inclusive of father, mother the many brothers and sisters and their spouses. After Lydia died in childbirth he crossed the Atlantic, it is said to get out of the clutches of Henry Dundas, (a relative of mine on an
21. [HWE] Re: Flight of the Vaudois to Piedmont [1]

22. Re: [HWE] Synod of Dordt [1]
Peter - One, William of Clerkenwell, most certainly. (I'm not proud of the fact that he was known amongst his fellow Clerics as 'Silver Tongue Sellon'). Walter, (slightly older but a contemporary of William, although the Victorians had him noted as William's father), more uncertainly. Although with that name the answer has, in my unsupported opinion, to be 'yes', I have yet to fit him, (who is a somewhat shadowy figure), in. Still searching for a connection with the Languedoc Sellons. Yours Aye

25. Re: [HWE] Surname Dupaty [1]
Peter - What a disappointment! I have to confess to a preliminary skim of your post during which I came across the word 'avocat'. I live in the land of the avocet, and knew the word avocation, but 'avocat'? Out with my dictionary, (regrettably only the Concise Oxford, I still can not prevail upon my OED disc to work with Windows XP), but no help. I then did what I should have been doing earlier and read your post with some greater care, only to find that it was no more than a turgid typo, of the type that
