Chassereau immigrants to England

Posted by Rachel Payne <rach@rmapayne.demon.co.uk> on Mon, 26 Jan 2009, in response to Would like more Chassereau info, posted by Steven Elmore on Tue, 13 Jan 2009

Dear Steven,
I live in England and am interested in the Chassereau family coming from France around around 1700. My grandfather had the name Chassereau as part of his name and a family link (through female line) to an early refugee. I have a genealogy on Genesreunited. In particular I have details of one Francois Chasserreau who was born at Niort in France in 1698 and who escaped to England "secreted in a barrel on board ship" in 1712, when aged 14, as I have already posted. His father Jacques Chassereau of Niort also had another son Antoine who obviously also came to England as he married Esther Larcher in St Martin-in-the Fields in London in 1727. Francois married Anne Johannot of Eynsford, Kent on May 12th 1727 at St Benet's, Paul's Wharf, London. As far as I know they had 6 children: Francis (b.14.8.1729); Anne (b.12.4.1732); Esther (1734); Elizabeth Anne (b.10.7.1737); Jane (1739); and Marguerite (19.9.1738). Any who bear the name Chassereau in the US may well have descended from the youngest, Francis, who died in Marylebone, London, in 1767. I would dearly love to know more about the descendants of the other five I don't know about. My descent is from the 3rd, Esther. If you have any more details about descendants who went on to America, or any other Huguenot families, I would be very grateful to receive them. I hope to do research into the period of immigration and write of it.
Thanks,
Rachel Payne
