According to Agnew's Third Volume of the French Protestant Exiles from France (London: Reeves and Turner, 1874), the Foreign Refugees and their descendants, who settled in Great Britain and Ireland, are divided into three Tables:

TABLE I contains the names of those who settled in these countries before the reign of Louis XIV., of France. (1643)

TABLE II contains the names of those who settled in these countries during the reign of Louis XIV. (1643-1714) GIVE IT TIME TO LOAD large table.

TABLE III contains the names of the Refugees who were Naturalized by Letters Patent. The reader, who desires full information under each of these headings will find it in Agnew's elaborate works on the subject. GIVE IT TIME TO LOAD large table.

NOTES TO TABLE 11

Note 1 Abbadie: James Abbadie, D.D., was a native of Nay, in Bearn; born in London in 1727; was Dean of Killaloe in Ireland.

Note 2 Barre: A Protestant family of Pont-Gibau, near Rochell, members of which settled in Ireland. Peter Barre married Miss Raboteau, a refugee; he was an Alderman of Dublin, and carried on a large business as a linen-draper. his son Isaac was Adjutant- General of the British Forces, under Wolfe, at Quebec. In 1776 Colonel Barre was made Vice- Treasurer of Ireland and Privy Councillor: he died in 1802.

Note 3 Bayley: This Huguenot name is derived from Philippe de Bailleux, a French refugee, who settled in the neighbourhood of Thorney Abbey, circa. 1656. Since then the name has assumed the following forms:Balieu, Balieul, Bayly, Bailly, and Bayley.

Note 4 Belcastel: Pierre Belcastel de Montvaillant was a refugee officer from Languedoc, who entered the service of William of Orange. After the death of La Caillemotte at the Boyne, he was made Colonel of the Regiment; he took a prominent part in the Irish campaigns of 1690 and 1691.

Note 5 Beranger: A branch of the Huguenot family of this name settled in Ireland, and another in Holland, but both dwindled in numbers until, in 1750, they became reduced to two-one the only surviving son of the Dutch refugee, and the other the only surviving daughter of the Irish refugee. The Dutchman, Gabriel Beranger, then came over to Dublin and married his Irish cousin, but, she dying without issue, the widower next married a Miss Stayer, also of french descent.Beranger was employed by an Antiquarian Society, in Dublin, under Burton, Conyngham, and Vallancy, to travel through Ireland, in company with the celebrated Italian architect, Signor Bigari and describe and draw the various antiquities of Ireland. He died in St. Stephen's Green, Dublin, in 1817, and was interred in the French burying-ground there.

Note 6 Blaquiere: John de Blaquiere took refuge in England in 1685. He m. Mary Elizabeth de Varennes, the daughter of of a refugee, by whom he had issue. One of his sons settles at Lisburn, where his sister m. John Crommelin, son of Louis. The fifth son John held various public offices; he was made A Baronet in 1784, and in 1800 raised to the Peerage as Lord de Blaquiere, of Ardkill, in Ireland.

Note 7 Boileau: Charles, son of Jacques Boileau(fifth Baron, Councillor of Nismes born in 1657), served in the English Army as captain of infantry, afterwards settled as a wine merchant in Dublin, where he died. his son Simeon, was succeeded by Solomon Boileau, who had sons, from the eldest of whom who was names Simeon Peter, was descended Major General Boileau, and from the fifth son John Peter was descended Sir John Boileau, Bart.

Note 8 Bouherau: Elias Bouherau, M.D.,D.D., settled in Dublin, where he was appointed librarian to Marsh's (now known as St. Patrick's) Library. One of his sons, John, entered into Holy Orders, and another became "Town-Major" of Dublin; This Town-Major, Bouherau, changed his name to Borough, from him the late sir Edward Borough, Bart., of Coolock, County Dublin, was descended.

Note 9 Brocas: The Very Rev. Theophilus Brocas, D.D., was a scion of this family, which held numerous lordships in the South of France, mostly in the neighbourhood Bordeaux. He escaped from France at the Revocation, and having taken Holy Orders, was appointed by the Crown to the Deanery of Killala, and the Vicarage of St. Anne's, Dublin. For his valuable services in promoting the arts and manufactures of Ireland, he was presented with the freedom of the city of Dublin; he died in 1766, and was interred in St. Anne's Churchyard, Dublin. His only son and heir was the Rev. John Brocas. D.D., Dean of St. Anne's , Rector of Monkstown, and Chaplain of the military at Irishtown, Ringsend. He died in 1806, and left issue, the Rev. Theophilus Brocas, rector of Strabane, in the diocese of Derry, and an only sister georgina, who, in 1804, married Robert Lindesay, Esq., captain of the Louth Militia. The Rev. Theophilus Brocas dying without issue, this family became extinct in the male line, but survives in the female line, in the Lindesay family of Glenview county Wicklow.

Note 10 Burges: A member of this family, Valery, or Valerien de Burgeois, came to England with one of the earliest bodies of immigrants, and settled at Canterbury and births, deaths, and marriages of members of this family appear in the registers of the Huguenot church there, from the year 1592 downwards. In the middle of the last century, the name, from successive intermarriages, became almost unrecognizable as of Huguenot orign and was then changed to Burgess; but the pedigree of the family has since then been clearly traced back to the Burgeois family of Picardy, who were seigneurs of Gamache and d'Oye, and of de la Fosse.

Note 11 Cambon: A refugee French officer, who commanded one of the Huguenot regiments raised in London in 1689, fought at the Boyne and at Athlone, and died in 1693.
