Are there any passenger lists for French refugees sailing to England around the time of the Revolution?

Hi, I am also descended from William Francis BOYER and Ann PITTS through their daughter Jane, who married Samuel PADDON (it looks as though you're descended from Jane's sister Hannah who married William Davis SOPER).
Have you any further with this query? I'd also heard the family came from France and would love to confirm the link.
Thanks!
