Between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries, many thousands of
Protestants fled religious persecution in France and the Low
Countries. They became one of the most influential immigrant
communities in the countries where they settled, and many families
in modern-day Britain will find a Huguenot connection in their
past. Kathy Chater's authoritative handbook offers an accessible
introduction to Huguenot history and to the many sources that
researchers can use to uncover the Huguenot ancestry they may not
have realized they had. She traces the history of the Huguenots;
their experience of persecution, and their flight to Britain, North
America, the West Indies and South Africa, concentrating on the
Huguenot communities that settled in England, Ireland, Scotland and
the Channel Islands. Her work is also an invaluable guide to the
various sources researchers can turn to in order to track their
Huguenot ancestors, for she describes the wide range of records
that is available in local, regional and national archives, as well
as through the internet and overseas.Her expert overview is
essential reading for anyone studying their Huguenot ancestry or
immigrant history in Britain.
