I have information on a Mareen Duvall who was of French Nobility and was a Huguenot who fled religious prosecution in his own land and sought solace in America. He stayed a short time in England which provided temporary sanctuary and arrived in America about 1659. He settled in Maryland Prince George County. By helping colonize Maryland he received several tracts of land on the south side of the South River. It was called LaVal or Duvall and was resurveyed September 9, 1765. This and other lands were devised to his 12 children by a will dated August 2, 1694. He was married three times but no children from third wife. His first son from his first wife was named Mareen as was the first son from second wife, an English lady. He is buried in what is now the garden of Gabriel Duvall's home.
He had a son, Benjamin Duvall who with Sophie Griffith had a son, Charles Duvall. This Charles Duvall with Rebecca Becket had a son, Charles Duvall. They had a daughter, Susanna Duvall.
I was wondering if this Mareen Duvall of the French nobility was possibly the same Mareen in message 1385, who was born to Nicola Stagard.
If anyone had any information, that would be greatly appreciated.
