Prunelay; his surviving family consisted of three daughters; his only son had died of an accident in hunting, and had predeceased the gallant and talented veteran. Of the daughters, Susanne Albertine (born 1697), was the wife of Daniel Dupont; Mary, or Marianne (born 1702), was the wife of Hon. Henry Wolverton, second son of the first Viscount Longueville; Anne, was the wife of the second son of the sixth Earl of Lincoln, Admiral the Hon. George Clinton, C.B., M.P. for Saltash, Governor of Newfoundland in 1732, Governor of New York in 1741. Collins’ Peerage says that Mrs. Clinton had three sons and three daughters, but that two only, Henry and Mary, were surviving in 1756.
19. Colonel Dubourgay was the officer sent to King Charles III. (so-called in 1706) to announce the arrival of the allied army at Madrid; he had a four days’ ride by a rather circuitous route to Saragossa. His baptismal name is not mentioned, but I conjecture that Colonel Charles Dubourgay was not the same man. Our colonel had a regiment which was named after him, which was disbanded on 25th October 1718. It was announced on 9th September 1721 that Colonel Charles Dubourgay was appointed Lieut-Governor of Jamaica. On 28th June 1723, Colonel Dubourgay was made colonel of a regiment of foot, late Brigadier Borr’s [this was the 32nd regiment, and the colonel’s Christian name was Charles]. On 3rd March 1724, Colonel Charles Dubourgay was appointed Envoy-Extraordinary to the King of Prussia; he was recalled in 1726, and succeeded by Brigadier-General Richard Sutton on the 1st of April. He re-appears in 1736, as Brigadier Charles Dubourgay, serving in Scotland under General Wade, having been promoted to that rank on 11th March 1727, according to Beatson’s Political Index.
20. Many gentlemen served as privates in our Huguenot refugee regiments. In Schomberg’s (afterwards Galway’s) cavalry regiment, some of these were honoured with employment as non-commissioned officers, and, according to French nomenclature, were called brigadiers,[1] being next in rank to quartermasters (Mareschaux-des-logis). One of these brave and zealous gentlemen was Pierre Malié. His father was Le Sieur Pierre Malié of Cernis near Nismes, of whom there is a portrait dated 1676, and an impression of whose seal with coat-of-arms is preserved; his mother’s maiden name was Françoise Sabollie; it is said that they were refugees, and that the father was killed at the Boyne. The younger Pierre Malié was born in 1660; he served under Schomberg and Galway as a brigadier, and was promoted to be a quartermaster in 1694. In 1699 he had, owing to the disbandment, to retire on half-pay. He went to London, where he married, in 1700, Anne, daughter of Thomas Devaux Michel of Caen, and Judith le Coq, his wife. He settled in Dublin in 1708-9, and died there in 1740, aged eighty. The following is copied from his own statement of his services, half-pay, &c.:—
Suivant l'ordre du gouvernement du 26e Decembre dernier le soubsiné declare quil a servy Sa Majesté depuis lannée 1689, dans le regiment du Duc de Schomberg et ensuite de Millord Galloway en qualité de Brigadier pendant toute la guerre d’Irlande et jusques en 1693.

Pierre Malié.
His family consisted of eight sons and three daughters; one of whom, Andre Malié, became an attorney in Dublin, and died in 1779, aged seventy, leaving a daughter, Anne, who died unmarried in 1781. The eldest son was an M.D., of No. 2 New Pye Street, Westminster; had been Surgeon of the 1st Dragoon Guards, Surgeon-General to the Forces in the West Indies, and of the Army in Flanders,. Thomas Malié, M.D., died in March 1789, in his eighty-ninth year, and was buried at Paddington. He is represented collaterally.
*⁎* I bring up the rear of this group with an array of officers’ names, which are or seem to be Huguenots.
In 1704, at the Battle of Schellenberg, were wounded Ensign Denys Pujolas of the Foot Guards, Ensign Bezier of Webb’s, Ensign Pensant of Hamilton’s, Lieut Jeverau of Ingoldsby’s, Lieut. Tettefolle of the Cavalry. At the Battle of Blenheim, Major Chenevix of Windham’s Horse was killed, and the following were wounded : — Captain La Coude of Marlborough’s, Capt Pennetiere of Hamilton’s, Captain Villebonne of How’s, Lieut Boyblanc of North and Grey’s,- ↑ “Ils sont subalternes,” says Father Daniel, under the heading Des brigadiers d’une campagnie de cavalerie, in the Second Volume (p. 72) of his Histoire de la Milice Françoise. Paris, 1721. “Les brigadiers dans une compagnie de cavalerie vont poser les vedettes; ils tiennent un registre des ordres qu’ ils recoivent des mareschaux-des-logis pour les distribuer ensuite aux cavaliers. Il y en a deux en chaque compagnie, et ils marchent a la droite du premier rang en l’escadron.”
