About Jean ‘Jan’ de Lannoy



Not the son of Gysbert "The Huguenot" de Lannoy & Martine de Ligne, dame de Barbançon; disproved,


Jean de Lanoy, son of Guilbert de Lanoy and his wife Jeanne du Bos, was baptized on 9 May 1575 at the church of St. Christophe in Tourcoing, Spanish Netherlands.

"The records containing this entry start with the year 1573. Most of the pages for 1573 and some for 1574 are so severely damaged that names cannot be read... That the records are preserved is purely due to good fortune. The volume was discovered stuffed into a wall in the tower...[in] 1897 when the tower was being partly taken down to be replaced by the present neo-gothic tower."[1]

Thus far, incontrovertible documentation substantiates that Philippe de Lanoy was the son of Jan de Lanoy (from Tourcoing) and Marie le Mahieu (from Lille) who moved from Flanders, in the Spanish Netherlands, to England and then to Leyden, Holland.

Despite his Catholic baptism, Jean / Jan's family were French-speaking Walloon Protestant Christians. Therefore, when he was a small child, Jean's family fled ant-Huguenot religious persecution to Canterbury in England, where many other Walloon Huguenot Protestant refugies had settled. The family of his future wife, Marie Mahieu, also lived in Canterbury, before moving to London and then to Leiden, Holland, Dutch Republic, in 1590. Jean was 16 years old when his own family left Canterbury for Leiden the following year, in 1591.[2]

NOTE (added Nov 14, 2011) - The marriage record (Nov 13, 1596) for "Jan Lano" and "Mary Mahieu" states "Gysbert Lano" as his father, and "Jane Mahieu" as her mother. The place of birth of Jan Lano is spelled "Torckangie" (it is safe to assume that this a phonetic transcription).

    • [The supposed disinherited son of Jean]
  • 12-A GYSBERT de LANNOY [Gilbert] [La Noye or Lannoi]. He was born at Tourcoing in 1545 of the Roman Catholic faith, but became a Protestant, probably just after the time of the siege of Tourcoing 1556 by the Protestants [commonly & at first, 1560, called in derision "Huguenots" — confederates]. To become such was quite sufficient to cause his being disinherited at the time of Jean's death in 1560 — He may have resided at Tournay in Hainaut for his son Jean was there 1599. [This city was captured in 1581 by the duke of Parma.] It is certain that he must have been Philippe's (10-A) grandson. (Gysbert or Gyselbert is the Dutch or Nederlandisch for Gilbert— a fam. name.) Gysbert's sons were: Jean de Lannoy born about 1570 — & Jacques de Lannoy who married a young girl of Courtrai, May 1601. Recorded in the Walloon Church. Armes of Gysbert: A curious discovery was made when a coat-of-arms used by Dr Barna Delano was sent me — proving to be those of Barbancon — this and Gysberts birth at Tourcoing placed the line without question in that house. Dr Barna Delano while in Paris, early in 1870, applied to the "College Heraldique" college of Heraldry then in official existence under the 2d empire — Napoleon III: the armes given him as his by right of inheritance were BARBANCON: Argent, 3 lions gules— Crest: the unicorn used by the TOURCOING house of Lannoy. On his return to America he had a die made and used on note-paper, a sheet of which is water-marked 1873. Why the college should have granted to him this coat instead of Lannoy plain is a mystery! unless the reason was that "Gysbert the disinherited son had these by right from his mother? Jeanne de Ligne, dame de Barbancon. Note: Philippe d. 1543 & 2d wife Franchise de Barbenqon left B -armes to their son Baudouin d. 1559 see Tourcoing branch armes. In this case there would have been no reason for separating the Lannoy & Barbencon armes for Gysbert. He could have used them or the mothers armes of Hornes. But not Barbencon alone, except that were his mothers name. Had he used Lannoy & Barbencon then the Tourcoing house would have been meant, or his father's ? coat-armor of Lannoy Manuel & Burgundy: then he would have been the heir — Could this have been known in 1870? The armes are therefore Barbancon borne through Gysbert's supposed mother Jeanne de Ligne. Who used the same coat as Francoise de Barbancon, [their fathers were doubtless kinsmen]. From "Heraldry: Woodward & Burnett" Vol 2, 492. "The princes of Arenberg . . . bear en surtout the arms of Ligne: Or, a bend gules, quartered with those of Barbancon Arg. 3 lions rampant gules, crowned or. . . . for Margaret, sis & heir, of the last count of Arenberg married Jean baron of Ligne & Barbancon . . .

  • (dues & princes) of Brabant, now extinct, bear: Arg., 3 lions gules, armed, lampasse & crowned or. Cry: Barbancon! The house Ligne seigneurs de Barbancon used the Barbancon armes. It was with considerable hesitation and doubt that I placed "Gysbert" as son of Jean — for more than a year I sifted and criticised the data, let others judge, while: For general proof we have — 1st The change of religious faith — often causing disinheritance & the removal of the name from all records, that future heirs might not herit (as Louis XIV did 1685). 2d The Barbancon armes & Lannoy crest given to Dr Delano 1870 by the College of Heraldry at Paris. 3d Gysbert names his son Jean & who names his Philippe 1621, Gysbert's supposed father being Jean & grandfather Philippe. 4th Marie de Lannoy not being designated "heiress." 5th The birthplace of Gysbert being Tourcoing (1545) . The births registered there do not begin until 1594 — 6th That there is certainly strong proof of Gysbert being a grand-son of 10-A Philippe de Lannoy. Finally : Gysbert was of the Tourcoing house and a descendant is given the armes of Barbancon, which would in Heraldic law place him as above.

  • Also in a museum here in Leiden called the Leidsche Lakenhal are still to be seen in oils two portraits of Jan Pesyn, two of Maria de Lanoy and one of her daughter by Jean de Lannoy. Photographs of these may be procured one of which is reproduced in this history. [On one of the Hospice buildings, where Robinson lived; a copper commemoration plate was placed by the pilgrim descendants in 1891 ?] Marie de Lannoy was apparently of some service to the Pilgrims at Leiden as she established there before 1609 twelve houses or a hospice for those who were driven from their native land [per inscription]. Pastor John Robinson 1575-1625 there took refuge and doubtless with him others of his congregation. This acquaintance with the pilgrims undoubtedly led the youth only 18 years old to join them later on. " In 1611 John Robinson & others bought a house in the Kloksteeg where the "Pesyn's Hof now stands (near St. Peters church) Leyden Holland." As there is no record of a building for Pilgrim worship it follows that they probably used the Pesyn-Lannoy hospice, they were also restricted to worship in private houses. "The will of Marie de la Noye concerning this foundation is now in Leiden— 1893." Dr W N du Rien— Sec. & Lib. of the Unity. Notice here that Philippe (1621) writes his surname both de Lanoy de Lanoie & de La Noye; also that Peter (1689) of New Amsterdam writes his surname both d'Lanoy, de Lannoy & de La Noy: & Jean of Eng. is de la Noy. This is sufficient evidence to definitely place the surname and the common origin of the emigres. The Lannoy's were never a French family, being of pure Norman & Flemish blood, much superior to the English, French German etc. in civilisation during the later middle ages (900 A.D. to 1453).
  • Philippe died in Bridgewater Mass. 1681. He was married first in 1634 & 2d 1657 & had five sons & four daughters. He used the names peculiar to this line; Thus Philippe — Jean — ? Gysbert — Jean — Philippe — (1621) — Philip Jr. & John (Jean). He appears on Hotten's List of Emigres to America as: "Philip De La Noye." He left Leiden to join the ship "Fortune " the first vessel to follow the "Mayflower." It came from London England bringing the Patent of Government, John Pierce & 35 colonists. They landed at Plymouth Massachusetts on November the eleventh 1621. It was at this time that the Narragansets sent the famous bundle of arrows tied with a snake skin to Gov. Bradford, who returned it stuffed with powder and bullets.

    • GYSBERT THE HUGUENOT, born 1535, at Tourcoing in Flanders, was baptised in the Roman Catholic Church, but became a Protestant after the Siege of Tourcoing by the Huguenots, commonly so-called in derision after 1560, the word Huguenot signifying Confederate. Gysbert married, in 1558, the Protestant Heiress, Lady Marguerite de Ligne, and removed to Tournai in Hainault, where the public records show that he and his son Jean were residing in 1599. Gysbert's sister, Marie, married Jean de Glymes, Marquis de Berghes, Count of Valhain and Knight of the Order of the Golden Fleece, a nobleman of Brabant. He was created Marquis de Berghes, 23d May, 1533, by Charles V., German-Roman Emperor (H.R.E.) - Gysbert's marriage with the Protestant Heiress and subsequent complete alliance with the Huguenots caused a serious family feud, he being the first Protestant in any branch of his family, and he was disinherited by his father. The estates passed at the death of the latter, to his sister Marie, in 1560, and upon her death, 22d May, 1567, without issue, to her aunt Marie, who, in turn, left them to another niece. Gysbert used the coat-armor of Barbancon, inherited from his mother, and the Lannoy armes of his paternal ancestors. His son ;

After the death of her first husband, Jean de Lannoy in 1604, by whom she had three children, two sons and a daughter, Marie married in 1605, her second husband, Jean Pesyn of Tournai. There were no children by this second marriage. In the History of the Town of Leiden, by Frans van Mieris, in Part I., page 323, is a most interesting account, illustrated by a map of the locality, of a home for the Congregation of the French Church, erected on the Pieters Kernhoff, by Jean Pesyn and his wife Marie de Lannoy who died 1650. Also in the Leidsche Lakenhall, a museum in Leiden, are still preserved two oil portraits of Jean Pesyn, two of his wife, Marie de Lannoy and one of her daughter by Jean de Lannoy. Marie established before 1609 a hospice, composed of twelve houses, for the persecuted Huguenots.

They landed at Plymouth, Mass., 11th November, 1621. Philippe married 19th December, 1634, at Duxborough (now called Duxbury), Mass., Hester Duxborough (also spelled Dewsbury), whose family gave name to the town. His estate (See Winsor's History of Duxbury) was a little north or northwest of that of John Alden, on the north side of Mill Brook, consisting of forty acres, and extending to the sea on the east. Winsor says he was "a man of much nobilitie' ' and that he often served on the "Grand Inquest". ( See Records Plymouth Colony, Vol I, p. 32 et seq.). He served on jury 2d May, 1637; he volunteered for the Pequot War, 7th June 1637, and fitted out fifty-six men at his own expense for service in that war; was granted forty acres in Duxbury, 2d October, 1637. He was one of the original proprietors of Middleborough, Mass. (See History of Middleborough, Mass. , in Vol, 3, New England Historical and General Register). In 1645, he was one of the original grantees of Bridgewater, Mass. On 7th March, 1652, he purchased 800 acres in Dartmouth, which were formally transferred to him 29th November, 1652. He died in Bridgewater, 1681, leaving a valuable estate and a large collection of books. For full account, see "The Genealogical History and Alliances of the American House of Delano 1621-1899".

They have established the full right to bear the arms of the Delano family, which could be of no better stock and which embraces a host of distinguished men in its numbers.
  • The name is drived from the town of Lannoy, a few miles from Isla, now Lille, France. Away back in A. D., 863, this town was called Alnetum, later L'Annois and Lannoy. The meaning of the word is unknown. It has been spelled L'Annois, L'Annoe, L'Aulmais, L'Aulnoy, but more often Alnetum. Today Lannoy is a small manugacturing town, seven miles from Lille, with a population at the last census 1,904. The first Lord of Lannoy, progenitor of the family, was Hugues de Lannoy, mentioned as a knight of Tournai d'Auclin in 1096. On the same list was Simon do Alneto. A charte des Chanoines (cannons) de St. Pierre a Lille mentions Gilbert de Lannoy in 1171 and Hugues de Lannoy is mentioned in 1186. It is impossible to present in this place an extended history of the family in its early days in France. That has been done with remarkable care and apparent accuracy in the genealogy, which is authority for all said here about the origin and early history of the family. There seems to be no flaw in the following pedigree in the direct male line of the American emigrant, Philip Delano or Delanoy.

  • Philippe de Lannoy was born in Leiden on December 7, 1602, of religious refugee parents Jan Lano, born Jean de Lannoy in 1575 at Tourcoing, and Marie Mahieu of Lille, Spanish Netherlands, both now in northern France. [2] His parents were betrothed in the Leiden Walloon Church on January 13, 1596. His father died in 1604 at Leiden. Philippe's grandfather, Guilbert de Lannoy of Tourcoing, was born Roman Catholic but apparently became an early Protestant. He left the mainland with his family for England probably in the late 1570s and then, in 1591, moved to Leiden, a safe harbor for religious dissidents. The Mahieu family arrived in Leiden around the same time, having earlier been at Armentières, near Lille. The family name de Lannoy probably derives from the town of Lannoy (a name derived from the Latin alnetum and French “l’aulnaie” meaning “alder plantation”), also near Lille. .... etc. From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delano_family __________________________

  • In the search for ancestors, attention might be given to changes in the spelling of the name back in the Middle Ages, when reading and writing were confined to a handful of the population. For example, in Holland, shortly after 1604, Marie le Mahieu, of a Brabant family, widow of Jean de Lannoy, married a Jean Pesyn.1 As s, in the south of France, has an sh sound, this Pesyn may be found to belong to the branch of the Pechin family, which is known to have settled in Holland.

  • Pesyn and his wife (Marie le Mahieu 1578-1650) built a place of worship. The inscription reads "Here you can see the ruins of a cabin in ruins by a childless couple, well built structure for poor foreigners who were expelled from their homeland and lived in peace here." The couple was married in 1605. Marie was the widow of Jean de Lannoy - a distinguished family of Flemish Brabant Tourcoing 1570-1604 - of whom he had two sons and a daughter, Jean Pesyn of Tournai and had no children. The house corresponds to the Congregation of the Church of France - and it is located in the Kernhoff Pieters area. They were the founders of a hospice, which they opened in 1609, and its aim was to house persecuted Huguenots in its grounds consisting of twelve houses. In America, their younger son was the founder of the noble house of the Lannoys.

  • The name Delano is a French one, for the ancient town of Lannoye, a few miles from Lille, where the family lived, hence "de Lannoy." The family was of such importance in France, in 1310, that when a daughter, Mahienne de Lannoye, was married, her children took her name instead of their father's. One of her descendants, Badouin de Lannoye, was one of those who founded the "Order of the Golden Fleece," in 1429. Gilbert de Lannoye, of the fourth generation from Badouin, became a Huguenot and was disinherited by his father.

Philippe De La Noye (1602 - 1681), son of Jean de Lannoy and Marie le Mahieu, arrives at Plymouth aboard the Fortune. The Fortune was the second pilgrim ship to sail to America. There he lives with his uncle, Francis Cooke, and his cousin, John Cooke, who had arrived in America a year earlier aboard the Mayflower.


Jean de Lanoy, son of Guilbert de Lanoy, was baptized on 9 May 1575 at the church of St. Christophe in Tourcoing, Spanish Netherlands. "The records containing this entry start with the year 1573. Most of the pages for 1573 and some for 1574 are so severely damaged that names cannot be read... That the records are preserved is purely due to good fortune. The volume was discovered stuffed into a wall in the tower...[in] 1897 when the tower was being partly taken down to be replaced by the present neo-gothic tower."[1]

When he was a small child, Jean's family fled religious persecution to Canterbury in England, where many other Walloon refugies had settled. The family of his future wife Marie Mahieu also lived in Canterbury, before moving to London and then Leiden, Holland in 1590. Jean was 16 years old when his own family left Canterbury for Leiden the following year, in 1591.[2]

Jean de Lannoy became a member of the Walloon church through a confession of faith on 14 Oct. 1595, the same day that Marie Mahieu also joined the church. Marriage banns for the couple were published three months later, on January 13, 1596. (English, p. 82)
