Chapter XXIII. (pp. 259-262.)

The Romilly Group of Families.

This group is named after its most distinguished member. Sir Samuel Romilly (died 1818), son of Peter, son of Stephen, son of Estienne Romilly of Montpelliér, a refugee in 1701.

Aimé Garnault, senior, a refugee of good family, from Picardy, had two brothers, John, and Michael of Enfield (died 1745). Aimé’s children (those with whom we are concerned) were:—

Aimé Garnault, jun., of Bull’s Cross, Enfield, married Sarah Arnold.

Daniel Garnault married Mary Sleet,

Margaret Garnault, wife of Peter Romiily,

Francisca, wife of Peter Ouvry.

Elizabeth, wife of Isaac Vautier.

Thomas (Sir) Samuel.

The Garnault family was thus a bond of union among the group of the families of Garnault, Ouvry, Vautier, and Romilly. The complete group appears in the will of Mr Philip Delahaize, who was connected with the Garnault family by some link not yet recovered.

Notes.

Under the heading La Haize, the Messieurs Haag have an article on a Jean de la Haize, appended to which there is this sentence:— “A Norman family of the same name also professed Protestantism; they passed to England at the Revocation.” The first of the name on record is in the Register of the Artillerie French Church in London, viz., Moyse Delahaize, and Marie Alavoine, his wife, anno 1715; he was the father of Philip Delahaize, Esq., whose will diffused so much happiness, and laid the foundation of so much prosperity. The former Mr Delahaize seems to have had three brothers, Thomas (died 1749), Charles (died 1750), and Peter (died 1768). Of these only Charles was married, and his daughter was Mrs Cook.

The name Alavoine appears earlier. In 1692 in the Register of La Patente, Spitalsfields,
