About The Huguenot Ancestral Name Listings On This Site

The ancestral listing on our website is an "open listing" which means it is periodically updated as new information becomes available. The names displayed are those for which The National Huguenot Society has received documented evidence proving, according to normally accepted genealogical standards, that the individual listed was indeed a French Huguenot during the period of 1520-1787. If such proof and documentation has not been verified and placed on file with The National Huguenot Society, then the Huguenot name will not be listed on our site.

Thus, the ancestral listing on our site is not - and never will be - a complete and exhaustive list of all French Huguenots. It is instead a subset of the population of French Huguenots which identifies the Huguenot ancestors of our past and present members. Nevertheless the listing can be useful in genealogical research and for the purpose of establishing eligibility for membership in The National Huguenot Society.

The listings on this web site are periodically updated to reflect the addition of new names when such documentation has been submitted to our organization. Conversely, some times names are removed as evidence comes to light proving an individual once thought to be a Huguenot was not.
