Section VII.
NATURALIZATION alias DENIZATION, WITH LISTS OF NATURALIZED DENIZENS.
There was a reluctance on the part of our country to pass a general Act of Parliament for the naturalization of Protestant strangers. Charles II. undertook to suggest the step to Parliament in 1681, but legislators were deaf to the hint for a quarter of a century. Any Englishman proposing such an act, was upbraided as an Esau, guilty of flinging away precious means of provision for himself and his family, the restrictions for foreigners being providential blessings for Englishmen. Any Bill to give foreigners a share of the Englishman’s right was unpopular with the City of London, and with all boroughs and corporations. The debates of 1694 ended in the House of Commons allowing a Bill of that sort to fall aside before the necessary number of readings had been permitted. And so Naturalization had to be doled out to individuals by letters-patent from the king, and by private Acts of Parliament.
The only proviso expressed in 1681 was in these terms:— “Provided they live and continue with their families (such as have any) in this our kingdom of England, or elsewhere within our dominions.” Yet a certificate, “that they have received the Holy Communion” crept into the warrants of denization, — and, at a later date, a command “to take the oaths of allegiance and supremacy at some Quarter-Sessions within a year after the date hereof.” James II. not only specified “the Holy Communion,” but used the more stringent definition, “the Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper according to the usage of the Church of England.” But after his Declaration for Liberty of Conscience, he withdrew the clauses, both as to the oaths and as to the Sacrament.
In order to naturalization, the King’s Letter was addressed to the Attorney-General or to the Solicitor-General containing a name or names, warranting the law-officer to draw out a Grant of Naturalization. The Grant, which was recorded on a Patent-Roll, was in the Latin language. Its contents may be described as a repetition of the privileges already expressed in His Majesty’s name in the English language, and therefore I copy one of the Warrants, or King’s Letters, from the Camden Society Volume of Lists:—
“Charles, R. — In pursuance of our Order of Council, made the 28th day of July last past [1681], in favour and for the relief and support of poore distressed protestants, who by reason of the rigours and severities which are used towards them upon the account of their Religion shall be forced to quitt their native country and shall desire to shelter themselves under our Royall protection and free exercise of their religion, of whom Peter de Lainé Esq., French Tutor to our dearest brother James Duke of York his children, is one, as appears by sufficient certificate produced to one of our principall Secretarys of State, and that he hath received the Holy Communion. Our will and pleasure is that you prepare a Bill for our royall signature, to pass our Greate Seale, containing our grant for the making him the sayd Peter de Lainé, being an Alien borne, a free denizen of this oure kingdome of England, and that he have and enjoy all rights, priviledges and immunities as other free Denizens do. Provided he, the said Peter de Lainé, live and continue with his family in this our kingdome of England, or elsewhere within our Dominions; the said denization to be forthwith past under our great Seale without any fees or other charges whatsoever to be paid by him. For which this shall be your warrant. Dated at Whitehall, the 14th day of October, 1681.
“To our Attorney or Sollicitor Generall.”
The Camden Society Lists intended to reproduce the Warrants of Charles II. and James II., but having been printed from amateur transcripts, they are inaccurate and unreliable. For a complete and correct extract of those Warrants see “Denization to Foreign Protestants, 1681-8. Domestic Entry Books, 67. State Paper Office.” The lists, which are printed by me, are the actual Grants of Denization by Royal Letters Patent as engrossed in the Patent-Rolls. The date of the Grant is two or three weeks later than the date of the Warrant. My lists include the Grants of William and Mary, and William III. As to the spelling of surnames, I can only reproduce what the law-officers' clerks have written.
Most of the refugees were naturalised in groups, a number being together in one grant. Some of the individual grants I have united in a list, for the sake of reference hereafter.

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.

Notes. — As to List X., Isaac Garnier’s family seems to have taken deep root in England. On Christmas day 1868 (the public prints inform us) “the Very Rev. Dr. Gamier, Dean of Winchester, who is blind and in his ninety-fourth year, recited to the congregation in the cathedral the whole of the prayers at the afternoon service.” Rev. Francis Lumeau Du Font became French minister of Edinburgh; his name is mentioned in the register of the city in connection with baptisms; in one entry he is called Mons. Francis de Pugn.
With regard to the Du Bourdieu family, named in this list, it is remarkable that neither Isaac nor John has the designation “clerk” added to his name. In my chapter xvi. it will be seen that a very aged minister, Isaac Du Bourdieu, a celebrated man, was a refugee along with his equally celebrated son, John. John had at his death in 1720 an eldest son, Peter, and another son, Armand, both mentioned in his will. It is possible that this may be a different family, although of the same clan and with coincidences as to Christian names.

Notes. — Until the last few names, this list is alphabetical. As to the great Dr Allix and the families descended from him, see my chapters xvi. and xviii. Apparently the names of three sons are given, but probably there were two only; the elder son is said to have been named John-Peter. I find the surname Yvonet in the Gentleman’s Magazine, which announces the marriage, on 13th September 1752, of Mr. Rushworth of Doctors’ Commons, to Miss Yvonet, daughter of John Paul Yvonet, Esq., of Isleworth. It appears from the Historical Register and Beatson’s Index, that this Mr. Yvonet was a Commissioner of Appeal in the Excise from 1725 to 1766.

With regard to the name “Bouteiller,” I observe in the New Annual Register for 1782 the marriage of “Sir Hyde Parker, captain of the Goliah man-of-war, of 74 guns, to Miss Boutilier, daughter of J. P. Boutilier, Esq., of Henley.” The surname Stahelun may have some connection with Stehelin.

Notes. — As to List XX., I am not informed whether there was a relationship between Rev. Abel Ligonier and the great Ligoniers; he must have been of an older generation; I have his autograph on the title-page of a copy of L’Estrange’s “Colloquies of Erasmus.” There are in this list several surnames which occur among the Memoirs in this volume: such as Garnault, Robethon, Fonnereau, and Motteux. The Gentleman’s Magazine (6th March 1750), announces the marriage of Peter Motteux of Spittle-fields, Esq., to Miss West of Bishop’s-gate Street.
The chronology of history requires me to interrupt these lists of adopted indigenae and ligei, in order to glance into the House of Commons of 1694. Until almost recent times the House sat with closed doors, and the reporting of its transactions and speeches was illegal. Even a member could not report his own speech; and if he experimented on the not quite impossible forbearance of the executive by printing his speech, the public had to take its accuracy upon trust. It was known that in 1694 a Bill for naturalising all Protestant strangers had come to a second reading, but had been dropped. But Sir John Knight, M.P. for Bristol, published an elaborate oration, which he represented as having been delivered by himself, off-hand, in his place in parliament, concluding with the amendment, “That the sergeant be commanded to open the doors, and let us first kick the Bill out of the House, and then Foreigners out of the kingdom.” The House, however, ordered the printed speech (or pamphlet) to be burnt by the common hangman.
This brochure also drew forth a reply, entitled:— “An Answer to the Pretended Speech, said to be spoken off-hand in the House of Commons, by one of the Members for B_____l, and afterwards burnt by the Common Hangman, according to the order of the House — London, printed in the year 1694.” “It’s very probable,” wrote the pamphleteer, “that if this speech had been spoken within as it was printed without doors, that the author had undergone the same fate to which he would have condemned the Bill for Naturalizing of Foreign Protestants. . . . Let him caw and bray and kick, and do what he pleases, it signifies nothing so long as he kicks against the pricks, whereof I hope that by this time he himself may be persuaded; especially if he consider the disgraceful exit which the Commons have given to his speech, and he may thank his stars for having escaped so well.”
The foreigners, pelted and btspattered by Sir John, were chiefly the Dutch, and by including even the king his words were seditious. There was only one paragraph as to the French, which I quote:—
"“A Fourth Pretence for this Bill is, a want of husbandmen to till the ground. I shall say, little on this head, but request the honourable person below me to tell me, Of the 40,000 French (which he confesseth are come into England) how many does he know, that at this time follow the plough-tail? For it’s my firm opinion, that not only the French, but any other nation this Bill shall let in upon us, will never transplant themselves for the benefit of going to plough. They will contentedly leave the English the sole monopoly of that slavery.”
True to its description [“The said pretended speech is faithfully repeated, paragraph by paragraph — the falsehood of its reasoning, and the malice and sedition couched in it, plainly demonstrated and confuted”] the pamphlet contains the following answer to that paragraph:—
“This worthy knight may please to consider, that abundance of those French would be glad to follow the plough-tail in England, if their language and other circumstances would hut admit it, rather than be in the starving condition that many of them labour under. Such of them as have been farmers are neither acquainted with our way of manuring, nor have they stock or credit to procure farms. Most of them have been brought up in another way of living; for it’s sufficiently known that the Protestants in France had the greatest part of the trade and manufactures in the nation. Many of them are gentlemen, officers, and scholars, and consequently unfit for such an employment: and our farmers have not commonly so much respect for the meaner sort of them, as to make use of their service either for plough or cart. And, for such as would come hither to reap the benefit of being naturalized, it’s probable that they may be persons of better condition than ordinary farmers, and their stocks might be more advantageously employed in the kingdom. While at the same time the increase of people will require an increase of provisions, and by consequence make farming and ploughing both more frequent and profitable than it is at present.”
We pass on to 1696, and discover in the Patent-Rolls five more lists of naturalized foreigners, dated from that year down to the last year of William III.

Notes. — The beginning of this List gives us the ancestry of a refugee family, which has always been prosperous, and which, as long as it retained the surname of AMYAND, was distinguished. Here also are other surnames memorialized in this Volume, such as Gambier and Le Coq. There are high-sounding names, such as Bouillier de Beauregard and De St. Julien de Malacare — another member of the latter family was naturalized in List XX.

Notes. — As to the surname, Cabibel, I have often thought that the important modern name, Cabbel, was derived from it. As a beginning of changing French names into English equivalents, observe the entry “John Greene alias Vert.” Here we have several surnames afterwards noticed in Memoirs, as Rouquet, Garnault, Lequesne, Gaussen, and Aufrere. Anthony Aufrere is the wealthy and admirable father, and the Rev. Israel Anthony Aufrere, the no less excellent and most deservedly influential son.

Notes. — There was an Irish refugee family of Raboteau, now represented collaterally (see my chapter xxii.), and whose history proves that the right spelling of the name is Raboteau; yet a deceased lady of the old generation, still affectionately remembered by her descendants, always pronounced the name, “Robateau;” and such is the spelling in ihe above list. There are some noble names, as De la Tour, and De Roure des Bonneaux.
During the vigorous prosecution of the war with France, the refugees were recognised practically as British subjects. And at length it was felt that their warm and active devotion deserved a more open and formal recognition. Accordingly a Bill for the Naturalisation of Foreign Protestants was brought into the House of Commons on the 14th February 1709, by the Hon. Sydney Wortley Montague, M.P. for Peterborough, in concert with Lord William Powlett, M.P. for Winchester; Sir James Montague, M.P. for Carlisle; Robert Eyre, M.P. for Salisbury; Sir Joseph Jekyll, M.P. for Eye; Richard Nevil, M.P. for Berkshire; Sir Peter King, M.P. for Boralston; William Lowndes, M.P. for Seaford; and Roger Gale, M.P. for Northallerton. The Bill became an Act of Parliament on the 23d March 1709; — the qualification was the taking of the usual oaths, and there was also a Proviso, “that no person shall be naturalised, &c, unless he shall have received the Sacrament in some Protestant or Reformed congregation within this kingdom.”
The following is the Bishop of Sarum’s (Burnet) account of this honourable deed:—
“An Act passed in this Session, that was much desired, and had been often attempted, but had been laid aside in so many former Parliaments, that there was scarce any hope left to encourage a new attempt. It was for naturalising all Foreign Protestants, upon their taking the oaths to the government, and their receiving the Sacrament in any Protestant church. Those who were against the Act soon perceived that they could have no strength if they should set themselves directly to oppose it; so they studied to limit strangers in the receiving the sacrament to the way of the Church of England. This probably would not have hindered many who were otherwise disposed to come among us; for the much greater part of the French came into the way of our church. But it was thought best to cast the door as wide open as possible for encouraging of strangers. And therefore since, upon their first coming over, some might choose the way to which they had been accustomed beyond sea, it seemed the more inviting method to admit of all who were in any Protestant communion. This was carried in the House of Commons with a great majority. But all those who appeared for this large and comprehensive way were reproached for their coldness and indifference in the concerns of the Church. And in that I had a large share, as I spoke copiously for it when it was brought up to the Lords. The Bishop of Chester (Sir William Dawes) spoke as zealously against it, for he seemed resolved to distinguish himself as a zealot for that which was called High Church. The Bill passed with very little opposition.”
To leaven the British population with Protestantism of Huguenot intensity was always the policy of the Williamite or true English party. But the aim of the opposition was to drive this influence out of the kingdom. So that when the Opposition became the Queen’s ministry under the leadership of Harley and Bolingbroke, they assailed the authors and supporters of the Naturalization Act, proclaimed them to be “the Queen’s and the kingdom’s enemies,” on account of it, and lost no time in introducing a Bill to repeal it. This was in 1711.
The appeals made to English prejudices, and the probable success of such appeals in more quarters than one, may be illustrated by referring to a rhyming pamphlet of the period (without date), entitled: “Canary-Birds Naturaliz’d in Utopia — a Canto (Dulce est paternum solum). London, printed and sold by the Booksellers of London and Westminster, Price 2 Pence.” The preface appeals in prose “To the Free-born Reader:” — “Ought not I to prefer my old acquaintance, my old friends, or even my old shoes (that King James the 1st said were easiest for his feet), before strangers, sharpers and intruders — Hoghen Moghens, Hugonots, and Wooden-Shoe Makers? In a word, can any one of sense and reason be so barbarous to his own bowels as to undervalue, undermine, and undo his natural-fellow-free-born Subjects for any interloping Canary-Birds or naturaliz’d foreigners?” Here is a specimen of the poetry:—
Here they grew fat and liv’d at ease,
And bigger look’d than Refugees,
Kindly protected from the stroke
Of swift pursuing Gallick hawk.
Them we so well did entertain
They would not choose go home again,
But now at last so saucy grew
That to aspiring heights they flew;
They must be topping Masters made,
And, as our free-born Subjects, trade.
On this account assembled were
The native Birds of all the air,
And having laid their heads together,
Advising and debating whether
Those bold Canary-Birds should stay,
And nat’ralized be this clay
Through all disturb’d Utopia.
******
Then honest Robin silence brake,
And to the matter boldly spake —
“Is not our property so dear
That we those foreigners may fear?
Or shall Mich interlopers come
And turn me out of house and home?
Besides, they’re not of our religion
No more than any Holland widgeon.
They never go to church, as I,
Anthems to hear or sing, for why?
They hate our decent liturgy.”
******
The charming Linnet then besought
His brother birds to weigh this thought,
He wisely said and sweetly sung,
And with a pop’lar air it rung —
Whether they could believe it reason
To nat’ralize them at this season,
When our own traders hardly live,
And scarce industrious workers thrive;
For though they sing a merry note,
They arc perhaps not worth a groat.
And why should we infranchise those
That strangers come — and whence, God knows
Or give such rights to foreign breasts
Till we have feather’d our own nests?
They’ll underlive and sell us too,
And thus the native poor undo,
Or bring us to their wooden shoe.
******
Taking our houses o’er our heads,
The Free-born turning out of beds;
At easy rates their pockets filling
For small expense of one poor shilling.
Great numbers of the French refugees had been content with simple toleration, because they did not wish to cast off their French citizenship. They had lived in hope that a good time was coming when their native country would receive them, — a time when the victories of Britain and of the Anti-Bourbon Alliance would, by a satisfactory treaty of peace, purchase their restoration to their homes and estates. But the tone of the debates of 1711 alarmed them, and drove above two thousand to take advantage of the Act, and to enrol themselves as British subjects. [It should therefore be observed that the date of the naturalization of a Huguenot refugee is not necessarily the same, or even almost the same, as the date of his arrival on British soil.] Although the first attempt to repeal the Act failed; yet the second assault, renewed with the utmost possible haste, put an end to its existence. And on the 9th February 17 12 the royal assent was given to “An Act to repeal the Act of the seventh year of Her Majesty’s reign, entitled an Act for Naturalizing Foreign Protestants except what relates to the children of Her Majesty’s natural born subjects, born out of Her Majesty’s allegiance.”
With regard to attestations of naturalisation, the denizen, whose name had been duly recorded on the patent roll, received a printed certificate, of which the following is a specimen: — It is endorsed, “Certificate of denization for James Barbot and Mary his wife, 16th July 1696,” and is stamped with a “vi pence” impressed-stamp. The names and the day of the month are inserted in writing; also the plural verb “are.”
“I, Nicholas Hayward, Notary and Tabellion Publick, dwelling in London, Admitted and Sworn, Do hereby Certifie and Attest unto all whom it may concern, That I have Seen and Perused certain Fetters Patent of Denization granted by our Sovereign Lord King William the Third under the Broad Seal of England, Dated the tenth of July in the Eighth year of His Majesties Reign, wherein among others is inserted the name of James Barbot and Mary his wile, who, though Born beyond seas are made His Majesties Leige Subject[s?] and to be Held, Reputed, and Taken as Subject[s?] Born in this Kingdom of England, and may, as Such, Purchase, Buy, Sell, and Dispose of Lands, Tenements and Hereditaments in this Kingdom or any other of His Majesties Dominions as freely, peaceably and entirely, as any Subject Born in this Kingdom, and that the said James Barbot and Mary his wife, by Virtue of the said Letters Patent, are to enjoy all Liberties, Priviledges and Franchises of Subject Born in this Kingdom, without any Disturbance, Impediment or Molestation as by the said Patent, relation being thereunto had, may more at large appear. Of all which act being Required of me the said Notary, I have Granted these Presents to serve and avail the said James Barbot and Mary his wile, in Time and Place convenient, London, the 20th of July 1696, and in the Eighth year of His Majesties reign.

Under the short-lived Naturalization Act of Queen Anne, printed forms were used. I give below the copy of a form duly filled up. The blanks, which in the original are inserted in writing, are here represented by italic types. The reason for the words Queen’s Bench, &c., having been written, and not having been printed, was that the applicant might select any one of the three courts of law, and might appear before either the Court of Queen’s Bench, or the Court of Common Pleas, or the Court of Exchequer.
“Queen’s Bench, Westminster. These are to satisfie all persons whom it may concern that Sarah Aufrere wife of Israel Anthony Aufrere of St. James, Westminster, within the county of Middlesex, born out of the allegiance of Her Most Excellent Majesty Anne, by the Grace of God Queen of Great Britain &c: Did on Monday the fourteenth day of November Anno Domini 1709, personally appear before the Justices of Her said Majesties Queen’s Bench at Westminster, and then and there, in term time, between the hours of nine and twelve in the forenoon of the same day, produce and deliver in open court a certificate in writing of her receiving the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper in a Protestant or Reformed Congregation in this kingdom of Great Britain within three months past, next before the exhibiting such certificate, signed by the person administering such sacrament, and attested by two credible witnesses in pursuance of an Act of Parliament made in the seventh year of her said Majesties reign, entitled, an Act for Naturalizing Foreign Protestants, and then and there took and subscribed the oaths, and made, repeated and subscribed the declaration appointed by Act of Parliament, made in the sixth year of her said Majesties reign, entitled, an act to make further provision for electing and summoning sixteen Peers of Scotland to sit in the House of Peers in the Parliament of Great Britain, and for trying Peers for offences committed in Scotland, and for the further regulating of voters in elections of Members to serve in Parliament.
“Dated the 14th day of November in the year of our Lord 1709 and in the eighth year of her said Majesties reign.
“Officii in Cuo Dnae Rnae coram ipsa Rua.
“Taken out of the several offices and delivered by Messrs Laymerie and Brissac, as also certificate for the sacrament ready filled up.”
In Ireland, naturalization, on taking the oaths before the Lord Chancellor, was granted without difficulty. The following are all the names I find in my note-book:—
Dublin Patent Rolls. Adam Billon (1 Aug. 1699). The following merchants being “Protestant strangers,” — (29th Nov. 1704).— Henry Maynard, Anthony Guizot, Stephen Peridier, David Dupont, James Bournac, Clenet Clancherie, Peter Bigot, Daniel Guion, John Clamouse, James Soignon, Samuel Offre, Mark Le Blanc, Andrew Le Blanc, William Boncoiron, Peter Dumas.
Naturalization by a private Act of Parliament could be attested either by reference to the Rolls of Parliament or by the possession of a copy of the Act, signed by the Clerk of the Parliaments, or by his deputy. I transcribe a specimen of a Naturalization Act.
An Act for naturalizing Peter Langlois and others. Anno 6° Annae Reginae [1707], No. 75.

A very large number of refugees were often naturalized in company in one Act of Parliament. In former editions of this work I printed the lists of naturalizations in the Patent Rolls only, not knowing of any others. But in the Parliamentary Rolls in the House of Lords there are other long lists. With these my learned correspondent Mr Wagner is familiar, and to him I am indebted for the following names. These lists are the most interesting of all to genealogists.

In the introduction to this volume I have had to note generally the good-will and kind feeling of the British people towards the refugees. The grotesque rhymes, which I have quoted in this section, show that there was an under-current of jealousy, while they contain suggestions explanatory of this exceptional bad humour. The cause was trade. In 1702 there was published in London a “History of Trade in England,” which complained of the “great herd of French tradesmen,” and declared that “the English have now so great an esteem for the workmanship of the French refugees, that hardly anything vends without a Gallic name.” Professor Weiss admits that “some classes of the indigenous population momentarily suffered.” On his showing it cannot be denied that perfect equanimity and self-forgetful sympathy could not be expected from the sufferers or their friends. The following is his able and interesting statement:—
“The refugees’ manufactures were so much preferred, that the native manufacturers more than once testified their vexation. French stuffs in particular were so sought after, that an English manufacturer, named Thomas Smith, established in Spitalfields, having had precisely similar ones made by his workmen, in vain offered them for sale in Covent Garden market. In order to dispose of them he was obliged to avail himself of the services of a refugee manufacturer, who easily sold them as of his own make. The same was the case with a number of other articles : they would go down only with French names. A refugee opened successively in Eeadenhall Street four shops for the sale of ready-made clothes, stuffs, silks, and other articles of French manufacture; he made an immense fortune. Others followed his example in Smock Alley, in Bishopgate, and succeeded in like manner. It was calculated that if the number of French merchants and manufacturers continued to augment in the same ratio as during the past twenty years, more than a half of the trade and manufactures of England would be in their hands within ten years.”
