Du Quesne.

In my memoir of the family of Du Quesne (now Du Cane), I called attention to the fact that at one time there had been a confusion in its attempted pedigree through the introduction into it of individuals with the same surname but of different parentage. A foreign correspondent of Sir Edmund Du Cane furnished him with information regarding a second Pierre Du Quesne and his family, of which the following is a summary:—

Jean Du Quesne of Valenciennes, died 1646.
Jean, b. 28th Oct. 1606, d. 1666. Jeanne, b. 3d Oct. 1603, died 15 th Nov. 1645. = Philippe de Rentre, died in Sept. 1648. Marie, b. 28th July 1610, married in England. = Isaac de Lillers, of London, merchant. Pierre, b. 28th Oct. 1617, died in England in 1671.

Marie de Lillers, wife of Nathaniel de Neu, no children. Isaac de Lillers, unmarried. Jacob de Lillers, unmarried.
