New to huguenot records - connecting families - help sought

Joboy,

Just seen your posting about Tutchins.  My Tutchins come from Bridport in Dorset, which might be a lead worth following.

Happy hunting,
Emma.

Hi everyone,
Hope you don't mind me crashing in on your discussions regarding the above subject, but I have been tracing my French family of GOULLEE (wood carvers/cabinet makers/weavers) for some time now.  My ancestor Timothy Goullee came over around the late 1600's and settled in the Spitalfields/Bethnal Green and surrounding parishes.  I too have mention of a Marie VASSEUR who married Pierre Finet, had daughter Marie Magdelaine 1720 who married Paul Bachellier 1742, had daughter Elisabeth 1754 who married Gilbert Goullee, the family I am researching.  I have heaps of records on Gilbert's side but the one thing that eludes me is a baptism for him, and therefore parents (I have an idea but need confirmation).  I have a record of his marriage, in 1837 there is a mention of him at the French Hospital age 82, in 1841 census at 85, and death in 1846 at 92, making his birth between 1754 and 1756.  I can't get to the London records in person and would really appreciate any help there is out there.  I have trawled online as many records as possible.
Thanks guys,
Val

How does one determine between which are Huguenot and those who were Norman?.
I find ancestral names in both camps which is a worry considering the timeline was many hundreds of years apart.

Hi, I also have a similar help request. My Huguenot surname is Gruzelier & they settled in Cornwall in the latter part of the 1600's. Anne Gruzelier was born in Madron, Cornwall in 1701 to parents Jean Gruzelier (b1670) & Magdalene Bilbau (b1680). That is the only information I have & researching Huguenot genealogy is a new venture for me, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think it was you, Richard, that made such a difference to my research when I gave you the name Denoa and you said you thought it should be Deniord
Can you tell me if there are any recordson the death of William Deniord born around 1848. He was living in Bethnal Green at the time and on the death cert it states he died from a violent injury. But was accidently. I think it said to " wrist"
He died in London hospital on 21feb 1873.Coroners report 22feb 1873

I have tried to find out from the records office also newspaper offices, but I dont have any subscriptions to them.
Also I cant find anything on his son, William, born 1868c , only on the 1871 census in bethnal green.

Thank you again.

Hi

My Huguenot ancestors came to London inbetween 1685 and 1752. The last one was a Francois Fradin who came to England in 1752, wed in 1759 and died in 1803. I have Auber ancestors who also used the name variant of Obey.

Hi Ben, I'm even newer to rootschat (today).  I too am looking for huguenot links to my family.  I think it is Wallis  from Haverhill (who were baptised in Canterbury (non-conformist) but also have Fairweather in Suffolk (Saxtead mainly).
