Hi, So I have just joined the Rootschat and trying to navigate around. I am in Australia and trying too find further information on my Huguenot ancestors. On the maternal side I have identified that Antoine DEVERDUN and Judith BACHELIER are my earliest links, and on the paternal side Samuel HALEY married Mary ALLIAUME who is the child of Abraham Pierre ALLIAUME and Marie AUSSAU. I see Richard1979 posts on this site and he is also decended from these people but I can not work out how to send messages directly to people. The site is a little confusing on how to get around. Is there a way to send a message to someone through the previous posts?

Hi BjHaley1972, I'm also descended from Bachelier and de Verdun. I'm also in Australia and have met both Eilean and Kevin from your side of the family. I'm on the Huguenot Society committee and have recently been looking up mentions of the family members in the UK Quarto Series volumes. Not sure if you will see this as it's now several years since you posted. I'm also a Rootschat beginner and don't tend to log on very often. Anyway, happy to compare notes some time. Best regards, Pamela in Sydney

Hi, I have spoken with Kevin recently and am headed to London in May so might catch up with some family who are also related and see what they have. I am trying to get some of their info relating to addresses the families resided in post France, ie The Netherlands and then in London. Are you local to Queensland?

No, I'm in Sydney. I'm off to France myself in April and hoping to visit Meaux en Brie near Paris where Judith Bachelier came from and also going to the West to Mouchamps in Vendee where the Cordons came from (Marie Bentley, daughter of Judith Deverdun, brother of your Timothee Deverdun, married Francis Cordon). Re London addresses, I have Anthoine Deverdun living in Silver St, Stepney at the time of his daughter, Susanne's baptism in 1709.

I will have to get back into my records and see what I have. Its been a while since I started plotting my tree in Ancestry.com. I recall Timothee Deverdun and fam fled France and were in Rotterdam for about 18 months before heading to London, (from memory). I will probably head to Spitalsfield in London in May for a look around and see where the families moved to.
