The reader will observe the surname “Cigournai” — which is probably the name that has in modern times attained honourable celebrity under the spelling, Sigourney. As to the surname, Bon-amy, the Historical Register mentions, under the date February 1717, Rev. John Bonamy, Dean of Guernsey. Michael, son of Michael Metaire, is the learned Michael Maittaire; the name, Michael Maittaire, occurs again in List XXII. As to the name Bonouvrier, the Gentleman’s Magazine of 1738 announces the marriage of Mr. Peter Bonouvrier to “Widow Elgar with £30,000.” The Historical Register stated that the marriage took place in Essex — that the bridegroom was the only son of Isaac Bonouvrier, merchant — and that the bride was “Mrs. Elizabeth Elgar, a widow lady, with a fortune of upwards of £30,000.”

Notes. — List V. begins with Sir John Chardin, who was knighted before he was naturalized (see chapter xii.); Esther Chardin is the first name on List VI.; Esther was the Christian name of Lady Chardin; but whether she be the person named here I am not informed. Next to her is Philip Guide, probably a relative of Rev. Claude Groteste de la Mothe.
