I am descended from the Huguenot family who came to Barnstaple, Devon
when the Edict of nantes was revoked. The family name which connects
me is Rendell. My father and grandson both were given a christian
name of de la Roche.

I am interested to make any relevant connections.

The Huguenot De la roches came to Devon very early but My Descendents from Farnce in 1796 were Catholics and from the Royal Palace and from Belguim.if that is any help.
Kindest Regards Mavis

Dear Richard,

There seems to have been a sizeable Hugenot community in Barnstable: my
seventh great grandfather, Reverend James Fontaine, also fled to Barnstable
from La Rochell after the revocation of the Edict of Nante.



Best regards,


Bill

Dear Mavis
 
Thank you for your message.
 
We have slight other connections then that my wife's family were catholic and that we lived in Belgium in the 1970s!

I am in Italy but return home later this week.  I'll send you the specifics that I have.  The detail is pretty limited as the research was done by my great grandfather Rendell who was mor einterested in the family line than in the surrounding circumstances.
 
Regards

Dear Michael,

Thanks very much for getting in touch.

The Rendell connection as well suggests strongly that we are connected.

At the moment I am in Sicily but return next week when I shall be in touch again.

Best regards,

Richard Kenyon

I too am very interested in any Roches in Cornwall and Devon as I have several DNA close matches there (not named Roche.)
