H. Some Huguenots of Westfield 



A grant of 80 acres of land on the south side of the Fresh Kill was 

 made November i, 1675, to Francois Chartier, who on March 26, 1676, con- 

 veyed it to Me3mard Journee, from Mardyk in Flanders, (i Baird, 182, 

 188; Riker, 76.) Journee died; his widow, Elizabeth, married Francois 

 " Sewpine " and they sold the land to Jacob Larzelere, of Flatbush, whose 

 family name was originally La Resilier. 



Bankers and Sluyter mention Pierre Le Gardenier and Le Chaudron- 

 nier (or the tinker.) Mr. Riker identified the former as Pierre Cresson 

 from Picardy, who had been a gardener to the Prince of Orange (Riker, 

 55, 76) and thought that the latter was Jean Belleville (i Baird, 305; 

 Riker, 220), who, on April 12, 1698, conveyed a lot of land to the French 

 Congregation, (i Morris, 50.) 



A grant in the name of Queen Anne was made in 1702 to Francis Vin- 

 cent, a Fleming, who, with Paul Droilhet', conveyed a part thereof in 

 1709 to Albert Johnson, (i Baird, 182, 232, 306, 309; 2 id., 131, 17, 29, 

 38, 205.) 



Marc du Sauchoy came from Picardy. (Riker, no.) 



" Usleton " may have been a corruption of Uzille. (Riker, 54.) David 

 Uzille was a brother-in-law of Jacques Guyon. (Riker, 71.)
