TEVELEIN records in Canterbury Churches
These extracts are taken from Andrea's HWE mails on TEVELIN FAMILY GENEALOGY
Earlier in 2001, Andrea extracted many records from a number of Canterbury church archives. She posted these on Huguenots-Walloons-Europe-L@rootsweb.com. You may care to subscribe to this list on HUGUENOTS-WALLOONS-EUROPE-D-request@rootsweb.com
For those who do not subscribe I have extracted the relevant TEVELEIN and associated family records to save reading time for those interested. I have included some of her introductory words because they make good reading and the LDS film numbers where they are quoted. If in doubt I have left a name in. For this reason it may be some way down the list before you see the first TEVELEIN!
I quote her regular warning:
"Please verify any info posted in this series with your own personal search in the original records. Do not rely solely on these extracts; this is not a primary source. I have tried to be as accurate and complete as possible but errors/omissions could easily have happened. Also, I am not *absolutely certain* that all these names were Huguenot -- I merely made guesses and extracted the *possibles*."
Please check these extracts against her original postings in September and October 2000. - Clive
Parish of St. Peter's in Canterbury, Kent,
Here are some surnames which I extracted recently from the BT's (Bishop's Transcripts).. This was one of the Canterbury churches which was heavily attended by the refugees.
These records are on LDS film # 1736628. I began the extracts with year 1685/6--simply
because that's where the handwriting became readable to me -- and have ended with 1700 in this post.
I've left all the spelling just as I found it (and bear in mind that the handwriting was sometimes very hard to
decipher) but have also sometimes speculated on what the original spelling might have been. Notice that burials
far outnumber either marriages or baptisms. Notice also the very frequent occurrence of male names such as
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Peter, and to a lesser extent: Philip & Samuel. It's been my experience that these
names are not at all common in Kent parishes which did not have refugee settlement.
If anyone has a connection to any of the following names, I hope they will post about it. Andrea
Abbreviations are as follows:
Bapt=baptised, Bur=buried, Marr=married, otp=of this parish, botp=both of this parish, spr=spinster, lic.=(marriage by)licence.
1686 May 16 Bapt Peter, son of James & Joane HOOKE (ie. LE HOUCQ?)
1687 Jne 22 Bur Judith, dau of John LE HOOKE
1687 Aug 7 Bur John, son of John LE HOOKE
1687 Nov 29 Bur Abraham, son of Abraham LE HOOK

1689 Nov 5 Bur Elizabeth, wife of Peter DETREE (ie. DU TRY?)
1691 Sep 11 Bur Esther, dau of Abraham ?SACT?
Note: The above surname occurred a few times here but I could not make out the exactly spelling because of the handwriting. In later time periods, I started noticing the surnames SACK and SECK (none of which I extracted), but which may be connected. I feel that this may originally have been LE SECQ or similar.
1691 Oct 4 Bur Abraham HOOKE
1691/2 Mar 12 Bur Moses LAMA
1693 Dec 1 Bapt James, son of James & Johanna HOOKE
1693 Apr 2 Bur Mary ANTOW, widow

1694 Nov 11 Marr Mary GORDAINE & John CARPENTER
Question: Was CARPENTER (above) originally CHARPENTIER?

1697 Jne 9 Bur Mary, dau of Peter LEFEVER
1699 Oct 19 Bur Samuel, son of John HOOKE, silk weaver & Householder

1789 Nov 3 Bapt Samuel & John, sons of Samuel & Ann RUE "privately
baptised at Theyr father's House at Half past four In the Afternoon. Dead."
Comment: In spite of the word "dead" the above entry, these infants would
have been alive at the time of the baptism but they died less than two weeks
later, see entry below. Remember that these records (BT's) are a copy of the
originals (PR's) so the person doing the copying would have the knowledge
that these infants later died and noted that fact by writing the comment
"dead" in the baptism record. Also, re: infants baptised privately, usually
at the parents' home instead of in the church -- this was done shortly after
birth if the child was sickly and not expected to live very long. If the
child survived, then he/she would be "received into the congregation" at a
later date.

Malt-house Chapel in Canterbury
I know we have several subscribers who are researching TEVELIN and this name has been mentioned in previous posts. Consequently, I thought the following extracts from the records of the Malt-house Chapel in Canterbury would be of interest. I have left all spelling and punctuation "as is".
As I have mentioned before, these records begin in 1710 and end in 1745, mostly baptisms, only one or two marriages, no burials/deaths. They are to be found on microfilm # 1482451. This is a copy of original, contemporary records, which are hand-written and in French. Obviously, not indexed. These extracts were found between dates 1722 and 1738. Note that other surnames are also mentioned (as parrains/marraines), as well as a name mentioned in Jan's post a few days ago -- Minister Pierre LE SUEUR. I think that the surnames MARQUILLY, DANBRIAN and BLANCHAR will also be of interest to some listers. Also a comment re: surname ESLEVIN. I believe this is a variant of ELVIN, ELWIN, ELEVIN, etc., a name I just happen to have some additional info about because I know another researcher who is interested in this name (but not on this list). Enjoy and please post with your comments or connections. Andrea (Please verify original records yourself to recheck what I have listed below.)
1722 -- Elizabeth, fille de Jacob TEVELIN et d'Ester, sa femme, est née le
6e de Septembre 1722 et a eté batisée le 16 du meme mois. Jaques MARQUILLEY
et Jeanne BLANCHAR et Marie TEVELIN sont les Parrains et Marraines. Pierre

1729 a ete batissée le 29 et a eu pour parrain Isaac TEVELIN et pour
marraine Marie DU PON et Elizabeth TEVELIN. Pierre LE SUEUR.

DANBRIAN et pour Marraine Dina TEVELIN. Pierre LE SUEUR.
1715 -- Marie, fille de Jean CAILHEAU et de Anne LA PLACE est nee le 7
Septembre 1715 et a este baptisee par Mr. Jean CHARPENTIER, Ministre, le 18e
7bre (which means September) 1715, parin Jean BLANCHARD, Marines Marie
CAILLEAU et Elizabet TEUELIN.
Comment: I have found that the letters v/u are sometimes interchanged, eg. TEUELIN=TEVELIN. This entry (and the
one below) also seem to indicate that Jean CHARPENTIER (CHERPENTIER) was Minister up until sometime between
1715-1719.
1719 -- Isaac, fils de Jacob TEVELIN et d'Esther ELVEN est ne le 4e Juillet
1719 et a eté batisé le meme jour. Il a eu pour Parrains Isaac TEVELIN et
Isaac ELVEN et pour Marraine Elizabeth TEVELIN. Pierre LE SUEUR.
Comment: this entry confirms that the surname spelled ESLEVEN in later entries is a variant of ELVEN or ELVIN.
1720 -- Jacob, fils de Jacob TEVELIN et d'Esther ELVEN est né le 25 d'Oct.
1720 a eté baptise le 6e Nov: suivant. Il a eu pour Parrains Jean L'EPLUQUE
et Pierre LE GRAND, et pour Marraine Susanne L'EPLUQUE. Pierre LE SUEUR.
1721 -- Jaques, fils de Jean Francoise LE DUC et de Judith LE FEBURE, sa
femme, est né le 29 Juin 1721 et a ete presenté au bateme le 9 Juillet
suivant par Jaques SEGUIN, et Jaques MARQUILLER, ses parrains, et Marie
TEVELIN, sa Marraine, a Canterbury. Pierre LE SUEUR.
