THE HUGUENOTS

The exodus of Huguenots (Protestants) from France to Geneva, Amsterdam, London, and other places started in 1572 after the "St. Bartholemew's Day Massacre" on 24 August.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Bartholomew%27s_Day_massacre

The revocation of the "Edict of Nantes" in 1685, eliminating Protestant religious freedom in France, led to a mass exodus totally about 400,000.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edict_of_Nantes

In 1699/1700 there were five embarkations from England to Virginia and South Carolina. The names of 3 of the 5 ships which trasported Huguenots were 'Peter and Anthony,' 'Nassau' and 'Mary Ann.' The 'Mary Ann' was the first ship to arrive in Virginia (at the mouth of the James River).

Huguenots began arriving in South Carolina in 1669. About five hundred Huguenots settled in South Carolina by 1700. Many of these were artisans, following trades in the New World that they had learned in the Old: blacksmiths, coopers, gunsmiths, and clockmakers. And many were young and newly married, a younger population being more willing to undertake the long and dangerous ocean voyage. These French-speaking settlers quickly moved into the political life of the young colony, also quickly organized their own church in Charlestown. Source "A Religious History of America", Gaustad, Edwin Scott. p. 100. HarperSanFrancisco, 1990.

In 1700-1701 over three hundred French Huguenot refugees were settled by the colonial authorities in Virginia on the south bank of the James River in King William Parish (ten thousand acres donated by King William III), and Manakin, Goochland County, Virginia. Manakin is about 15 miles west of Richmond, Henrico County, Virginia on Rt 6 (Patterson Ave.) & River Road. A bridge across the James River on River Road in the West-End of Richmond, VA. is called the Huguenot Bridge.

Some Huguenots later moved to Colonial Williamsburg, James City County, Virginia; Essex County, Virginia; and Hanover County, Virginia.

Issac Du Bose married Suzanne Couillandeau date unknown. Suzanne was born circa 1670 in La Tremblade, Saintonge, France. She was the daughter of Pierre Couillandeau Jr. and Suzanne [Couillandeau]. Suzanne died circa 1742 at age unknown. Pierre, Jr. was the son of Pierre Couillandeau, Sr., and wife Marie Fougeraut. Marie married four times, her last husband being Moyse Brigaud, who came to SC with her. He bought lots #28, and #33 in Jamestown. He came to a place later called Jamestown on the Santee River, SC. A large number of the refugees settled on the south side of the river, including the Dubose. This area became known as "French Santee": All being in the parish of St. James. Isaac, the son of Louis DuBose and his wife Anne of Dieppe, Normandy, France, was born in Dieppe ca. 1665, and died in SC ca. 1718. Isaac's lineage can be traced back to the 1300's; some say even farther.

THE ISAAC DUBOSC FAMILY OF SOUTH CAROLINA

by Mrs. Leola W. Konopa

The family of Isaac DuBosc is found among the earliest families in the Province of Carolina. Isaac DuBosc came to Charles Towne ca. 1685/87 and settled along the Santee River. The "List of French and Swiss Refugees in the Province of Carolina who wished to be Naturalized English" was prepared 1695/96 and included Isaac DuBosc, son of Louis DuBosc, and Anne DuBosc, of Dieppe in Normandy, France; Suzanne DuBosc, his wife, daughter of Pierre and Susane Couillandeau, native of "La Tramblade" in Xaintonge. The mother of Suzanne DuBosc was Marie (not Susane) Fougeraut Coullandeau, who married 2nd Moise Brigaud and who sold Lot #90 in Charles Towne that she had purchased in 1688 from Henry Hughes. This was in the Plat and Draught of the said Charles Towne.

Henry Hughes was granted the lot in 1680. This would have been the original Draught of Charles Towne. In the deed she refers to her daughter Suzanne Dubose and her son-in-law Isaac Dubose. On this document, Isaac Dubose signed his name as "--Dubos".

"The Royal Land Grants" books in the Dept. of Archives, Columbia, S.C., show Grants of land for Isaac DuBosek, Dubose etc. and also for Isaac (2nd), Andrew, Daniel, John, Peter, Stephen, Joseph, Samuel, Benjamin, William, and many others. The name is spelled different ways and the Dubose family had many grants and plats.

Isaac Dubose, the emigrant, made a Will dated 6-19-1714 which cannot now be located but is referred to in a Document of his widow in 1733 in Memorial Vol. 8, p. 245, Archives, Columbia, S.C., .....

Isaac Dubose is known as a French Huguenot. He and his wife were born in Normandy, France and immigrated to South Carolina in the 1600s to escape religious and other oppression in their homeland. My great aunt, Marjorie Irene Howell Zidlick was an active member of the chapter in Charleston, SC. I contacted them to find that her file was completely empty. Thus, the paperwork must be regenerated to establish this line. If any family are interested in joining me in the Huguenot Society, please let me know.

He was a French Huguenot who immigrated to the US. 1685 Charles Towne, Carolina, British America

   About 500 years ago in France, during the Protestant Reformation, a gro wing group of independent clergy, scholars and laymen believed that spi ritual seekers should interpret the gospel for themselves. Salvation, t hey said, came not from doctrine or works, but from faith alone.
   These French Protestants became known as Huguenots. What began as a rel igious debate became a story of war, persecution and exile as the Hugue nots challenged both the monarchy and the Roman Catholic Church for the r ight to worship as they chose. In 1685, by order of the French king, th ese religionnaires were forbidden to leave France and ordered to conver t. If they refused, men were condemned to the galleys, women were impri soned and children were taken from their families.
   Rather than forsake their faith, many Huguenots left their homes, famil ies, jobs and the life they knew in search of a place where they could w orship and live freely. They endured a treacherous journey across the A tlantic and arrived seeking freedom in an unknown country whose languag e they did not speak. They had to begin again, suffering through illnes s, famine, poverty and discrimination.
   Over time, they built new lives. They gained the right to vote, sought r epresentation in government and played vital roles in the shaping of th eir new home and country. Many of the Huguenots and their descendants a re some of the most influential people in American history.

Isaac DuBosc emigrated to South Carolina and settled in Jamestown on th e Santee River ca. 1690. Isaac was one of the founders of Jamestown, S. C., having purchased lot no. 12 in 1705. Isaac & Susanne DuBose were na turalized in 1689
