A New Tapestry

 NEW TAPESTRY:
AUSTRALIAN HUGUENOT FAMILIES

Convicts, goldminers, wealthy squatters, Governors of colonies, farmers, teachers and clergymen: their ancestors were religious refugees, but they came to Australia as migrants. Our society's second book, 'A New Tapestry: Australian Huguenot Families' tells the stories of 30 Huguenot (French Protestant) families and covers the full range of history, from the 17th to the 21st centuries, concentrating on the lives of Huguenot-descended men & women in Australia, the challenges they faced and how they overcame them. They range from well-known Australians (Cazaly, Perdriau) to many lesser-known pioneers.

The price is: $40 + $10 p&p for NSW ($50 per book) $40 + $14 p&p rest of Australia. ($54 per book)

You can pay by cheque or money order, or by credit card, using our society's paypal account. If you wish to use this last method you don't need a paypal account, just email us at ozhug@optushome.com.au and we can arrange this.

HUGUENOT SURNAME INDEX CD-ROM
A Master-Index to the Quarto Series of the Huguenot Society of Great Britain and Ireland.

How often have you wondered, 'Is that name a Huguenot name?' Now the answer is easier to find. This new CD-ROM is a name-index to all 61 volumes of primary records (the Quarto Series) of Huguenots in England and Ireland, published by the Huguenot Society of Great Britain and Ireland.

These volumes include all the surviving Huguenot church registers for England and Ireland, as well as a host of other material, including some wills, apprenticeship records for the Weavers' Company, church records, and charity records. This master index has over 200,000 entries.

It can be used on its own to identify Huguenot names, or as a companion to the volumes of the Quarto Series (primary records) which are held in many libraries and family history society collections.

It costs $30 + $5 postage and packing to anywhere in Australia. If you would like to purchase a copy, just print off the order form.
