Mark: 6-10-2000 I have read your message and will order your book as soon as I get the check I have to prepay to get it run. Yes, I believe you and my deceased husband would have been about 3rd cousins. Having a Warren in your lines I am sure you are interested in the Huguenot connection. John Warren, Sr.s
wife was Martha Dubose gr daughter of the immigrant Isaac Dubose. I don't get to libraries with good collections very often, as this was what my husband and I did together and I lost him Oct 29 1995. There is a book and if you locate it let me know so I can get one-- Dubose Genealogy by Dorothy Kelly MacDowell, compiler, Columbia, SC 1972.
It shows just how John Warren, Sr. fits in and it has to be good for The Huguenot Society out of New York, who sent me pages from one of their publications- used this as one of their references...I notice she has produced a supplement to this also, I believe the one we would need first would be the original volume.The supplement inform. is MacDowell, Mrs. M. Dubose,Dubose Genealogy, Supplement 1975(I have not seen the suppl.) I cannot locate one and if you do and will purchase it for me, I will send your money back promptly.Isaac Dubose was naturalized inS.C.1689.There is an active Huguenot Organ.in Charleston,SC now..but these pages I have came from the Huguenot library in New York. I will give you their address and I feel sure they would send you the same pages from their National Huguenot Society that they sent me. Isaac is in 1995 edition of the Register of Qualified Huguenot Ancestors of the National Huguenot Society, 4th edition, 1995 comp. Arthur LouisFinnell, Registrar General. p. 74 & 75.John Warren,Sr. was also with Francis Marion, you may already have this..There is an old out of print history of Louisiana Biographical and Historical Memoirs of La.,pp 384-385..a standard work in La. libraries, I have lost the author...writes of the
Dubose family and tells that John Warren m.
Martha Dubose..it begins" Isaac Dubose, the founder of the illustrious Du Bose family in the U.S. was born in Dieppe, Normandy, France but as early as 1689 came with his wife his
six sons and one daughter to S.C. Yours is
his grandaughter Martha whose father was John Dubose and whose mother was Mary Whidden. Isaac Dubose,immigrant, his wife was Suzanne Couillandeau b La Tremblade,Saintonge France, dau. of Pierre and Suzanne--Couillandeau,Jr.
There is a place now marked in SC by the name of Jamestown, just a flag station I think they said but a historical plaque was erected in the Huguenots' honor for this was where they first settled, gradually they moved further inland. I think I wrote you a portion of this already.
The address of Hug. Soc. NY is 122 East 58th St. New York, N.Y. 10022
