imprisoned at La Rochelle, where he was solemnly tried and sentenced to be interdicted from exercising the pastorate, and to be banished from the province. He took refuge in England, and was naturalized during the last days of James II. (see List XVI.) William and Mary presented him in December 1690 to the Rectory of Holdenby in Northamptonshire. On 21st November 1718 he was collated a Canon of Peterborough Cathedral; in the lists he is styled, “Daniel Amyand, Rector of Holdenby in this diocese, a French refugee.” He described himself as " passed four score " when he wrote his Will on 12th December 1729; he died in 1730. An oak screen in the parish church is a visible memento of the Rev. Canon Amiand at Holdenby. He lived unmarried, but his brother Isaac founded an English family.
5. Monsieur L’Alouel, pasteur of La Moussaye, became a refugee in England in 1686. Before he could embark at Dieppe, he was arrested as a fugitive, and imprisoned until it should be proved that he was a pasteur; and during the process of examination and investigation all his money was lost. Some of the refugees were too infirm to endure the voyage to England; Monsieur Faget, pasteur of Sauveterre, in Beam, died in the passage; he was buried in the country which he had sought as a refuge. — (Benoist, tome 5, pp. 934-5-6.) But though I have had to chronicle the death of the last-named pasteur, I can record the marriage of L’Alouel, “Pierre Lalouel, ministre” on 22nd October 1691 married Marthe Du Rouillé, in London, within the French Church in the Savoy.
6. The Rev. Anthoine Ligonler de Bonneval was pasteur of Sablayrolles until 1681, in which year he was appointed to the pastorate of Pont de Camarès. In 1685 his public worship being interdicted, and being himself apprehensive of personal arrest, he received a consistorial certificate, dated 12th September, and quitted France. He became a military chaplain in Britain, and retired with a pension of 3s. 4d. a-day to Portarlington in 1702, where he accepted the incumbency of the French church under episcopal jurisdiction, and its endowment of £40 per annum; he resided there till his death, 16th September 1733. His sister Anne Marie was married in 1737 to Jacques Louis de Vignoles. He himself married Judith Julie de Bostaquet (see Chapter II.), and left a daughter, Ann Mary, who died young. He left £20 to the poor of his church.
7. Antoine Pérès was a native of Montauban, who in 1649 began to study theology in Geneva. In 1661 he was made Professor of the Oriental Languages in the Protestant University of his native town, and afterwards was transferred to the chair of Systematic Theology. In 1684 the University of Montauban was suppressed; the professors were imprisoned, and were not set at liberty until October 1685, when they were banished. Pérès shared their vicissitudes. Quick says of him, “This very learned and godly divine died in my neighbourhood in 1686 here, in King Street, near Bunhil-fields,” [London]. One of his daughters, Marie, was married to Jeremie Vialas, lieutenant of infantry, nephew of the pasteur Noe Vialas. Feeling herself, after the death of her father, “a stranger in a strange land,” she named her first child Marie Gershomith; the baptism was in Threadneedle Street on 1st June 1687, Rev. John Quick being one of the witnesses. Two of her children were baptised in Le Temple — viz., Pauline, born 1690, and Noe, born 1692. Elizabeth Pérès, another daughter of the refugee, was married in 1692 to Joseph Lamotte. Perhaps Denys Pérès was the refugee professor’s son; his child Olivier, named after Olivier Migault, was baptised on 22nd April 1705.
8. César Pégorier, a theological student at Geneva in 1666, was a native of Roujan in Languedoc. He became pasteur of Senitot in Normandy. Through the pressure of persecution he left his charge and came to England, with a certificate of honour from the Synod of Quevilly. He was the minister of the French churches, styled the Artillery and the Tabernacle in London, and was the author of three publications: — (1.) “Exposition de la Religion Chrétienne” [in dialogues], Utrecht, 1714. (2.) “Systeme de la Religion Protestante,” containing 700 quarto pages, London, 1718. (3.) “Maximes de la Religion Chrétienne” [a controversial work], London, 1722. In 1728 his daughter, Madelaine, was married to Jean Sauvage in Rider’s Court French Church. The Rev. Daniel Caisar Pégorier, who was born in 1696, was probably this good refugee’s son.
9. The Rev. James Sartre (naturalised in 1685 as James Sartres, clerk, and called by Anthony-a-Wood Jacobus Sartroeus), was a native of Montpellier, and M.A. of Puylaurens. He was ordained by the Bishop of London on 1st August 1684, incorporated as M.A. at Oxford on 14th May 1688, and installed a Prebendary of Westminster on the 17th; he carried St. Edward’s staff in the procession at the Coronation of William and Mary, 11th April 1689. On the 5th July 1704, at Bromley in Kent, he married Dorothy, daughter of the Rev. Lancelot Addison,
