The Common Room / Re: My First visit to an ancestors town!!! Huguenots Phillipe Larcher La Mothe

Hi,

Thank you for that.

Yes my ancestor is from La Mothe-Saint-Heray-Deux-Sevres in Poitou Charente .
He was born in this town in 1679 and came over to the UK at around the time the Huguenots  were coming over.
He is on the list of Huguenots from the Huguenot Society.

It does look like a lovely place.

Hi all.

I wasnt sure where to put this so hope its ok to post here.
 
I am really excited as I have the chance over Easter to visit a town from my family history research!!!

My ancestors were Huguenots from Poitou Charentes and came from a town/village called Le Mothe.

The ancestor who can over in was Phillipe Larcher.

If anyone has any information on where to go to in this town I would really appreciate it.
I will be there for around 12 hours, from a Wednesday evening to a Thursday afternoon.

Thanks.
