My ancestor Marquis de la Calmes or Marquis Calmes was b. 1672 near
Trebes,Longuedoc, France. His parents Guillame de la Calmes & Marie
de Canton. Fled France and went to England circa 1685. He got a Kings
bounty & went to America circa 1687-9. He does not appear anywhere in
documents I can find until 1700/01 in Stafford Co, with wife Isabella
Eliche.
I have no idea when he left England, where he sailed to or what vessel
he
may have been on. He may have gone to Barbados & then to some other
place (South Carolina) during the intervening years between 1687 & 1700.

Any help will be appreciated.
