Scotland / Re: QUESTION: Did 'Huguenots' settle in Scotland?
« on: Sunday 20 November 16 13:09 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to establish a link for my family name of Pagon or Pagan in Scotland (or elsewhere). They came to settle in the Eastern Shore of Maryland, USA in about 1700, and settled in a community which had some Huguenot refugees (Antoine LeCompte from Picardy). I wondered whether there was any Huguenot connection for the Pagans which would incline them to settle in that area of the USA. Does anyone know of any sources I could look into? The first Pagan I have is a Harbott (or possibly Herbert) Pagan who must have been born around 1675.
Any suggestions about how to go about researching his origins would be most gratefully received.
