# Protestant Exiles from France/Volume 2 - Book Third - Chapter 20 - La Trobe-Bateman

Layout 2
​La Trobe-Bateman. — The family of La Trobe early joined the Protestant Reformers of France; it ranked among the noblesse of Languedoc, and was settled in the neighbourhood of Montauban. They joined the loyal army against the League in the reign of Henri III., and adhered steadfastly to Henri IV. One of the family earned distinction by his defence of the fortress of Verlhac near Montauban. In the reign of Louis XIV. the head of the family was Henri de La Trobe, Comte Boneval, whose wife’s maiden name was Adelaide Montmorencie. Their son, Jean Henri Boneval de La Trobe, became a refugee in Holland in 1685, and came to England with the Prince of Orange. This noble refugee is the ancestor of families in England, Holland, and America. His son, James La Trobe, married Miss Thornton, and had a son, Benjamin, born in Dublin in 1728. This was the Rev. Benjamin La Trobe, who was educated at the University of Glasgow, and formed an Independent Congregation in Dublin. In course of time he joined the Unitas Fratrum or Moravian Church, and became minister of the Brethren’s Church at Fulneck in Yorkshire. Mr. La Trobe next removed to London as superintendent of the Brethren’s congregations in England, and there he died on 29th November 1786. The Moravian Missions, so justly admired, were under his chief management; in this charge he was succeeded by his son, Rev. Christian Ignatius La Trobe, who also was succeeded by his son.
The Rev. Benjamin La Trobe had married Anna Margaret, daughter of Colonel ​John Henry Antes, of Fredericks county, Pennsylvania, and by her had, besides his three sons, a daughter, Mary-Agnes. (As the La Trobes were ministers and authors, I shall return to them.)
Mary Agnes La Trobe was married to John Bateman, Esq. (born 1772, died 1851), of Wyke in Yorkshire, afterwards of Ockbrook, Derbyshire. Her eldest son, John Frederic, born in 1810, is now of Moor Park in Surrey, F.R.S.S., L. and E.; he married, in 1841, Anne, the only daughter of the late Sir William Fairbairn, baronet, LL.D., F.R.S., corresponding member of the Institute of France. By baptismal names both father and son shewed their regard for the memory of the La Trobes; and the latter, at the earnest request of the family, assumed, in 1883, by Royal License, the surname and arms of La Trobe, and is now John Frederic La Trobe-Bateman, Esq., F.R.S.; his eldest son, is Rev. William Fairbairn La Trobe-Bateman, M.A., Incumbent of St. John’s, Upper Norwood, Surrey.

Layout 2
​Martin-Atkins. — A French Protestant, named Martin, came to Kngland after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes. One of his descendants married Miss Atkins; she had a brother Abraham Atkins, Esq., who, in 1746, purchased the manor of Kingston Lisle, near Wantage, Berkshire. He left this estate to his nephew, Mr. Martin, on condition of his assuming the additional surname of Atkins. There are no dates on record regarding this Mr. Martin-Atkins, but his widow, née Ellen Frances Halhed, died in 1831, aged seventy-nine. Her son, Atkins Edwin Martin-Atkins, Esq., was the father of Edwin Martin-Atkins, Esq., of Kingston Lisle, born 1808, and of William Hastings Martin-Atkins, Esq. of Farley Castle (also in Berkshire), born 1811. The squires of Kingston Lisle have since borne the name of Edwin; the present proprietor is a minor, born 1870, whose father was born in 1838, and died in 1875.
# Protestant Exiles from France/Volume 2 - Book Third - Chapter 20 - Luard

Layout 2
​Luard. — Robert Abraham Luard, of Caen in Normandy, was a Huguenot refugee in London. In the ancient province of Maine, and near to the town of Le Mans, there is a Chateau de Luart, and probably his family was originally cradled there. He married Miss Verbeck, and their son, Peter Abraham Luard (born 1703, died 1768), became a great Hamburgh merchant. The senior line of the family derives from his only son, by his first wife, Peter Robert Luard (born 1727, died 1802), who married Jane, daughter of Zachariah Bouryan, Esq.; his heir was Captain Peter John Luard, of Blyborough, who married Louisa, daughter of Charles Dalbiac, Esq., and dying in 1836 was succeeded by Charles Bouryan Luard (born 1785, died 1855), father of the present George Augustus Luard, Esq. of Blyborough Hall, Lincolnshire. His next brother, John Godfrey Luard (born 1829, died 1862), is represented by another John-Godfrey. Returning to Peter Abraham, we find that he had, by his second marriage, one son, William, whose second son, William, founded or resuscitated the family of Wright of Hatfield Priory, and the third son was the ancestor of Admiral William Garnham Luard, C.B., of the Lodge, Witham. Reverting to Captain Peter John Luard, we observe that he had eight sons, the seventh being Major Robert Luard of the Mote, Tonbridge.

​Metge. — Pierre Metgé, a Huguenot refugee of the Revocation period, settled at Athlumney in the county of Meath. His son, Peter, was M.P., in 1776, for Ardce, and in 1783 for Boyle in the Irish House of Commons. A third Peter, his son, was a barrister-at-law, and was elevated to the bench as an additional Baron of Exchequer in Dublin in 1784; he died without surviving issue in 1801, and the next head of the family was his brother John, M.P. for Tallagh in 1798, and Auditor-General of the Irish Treasury. His eldest son succeeded him as chief of the Metge family, namely, Peter Ponsonby Metge, Esq., of Athlumney; he died 10th November 1873, the representatives of his deceased brother, John Charles Metge of Sion, succeeding him in the representation of the family, namely —
(1). Francis Burton Metge, of Ladywell, County Westmeath.
(2). Peter Ponsonby Metge, of Rathlca, County Tipperary.
(3). Robert Henry Metge, of Athlumney, LL.B., barrister-at-law.
# Protestant Exiles from France/Volume 2 - Book Third - Chapter 20 - Petit

Layout 2
​Petit. — From the ancient Norman family of Petit des Etans descended Louis Petit, lieutenant in La Caillemotte’s (afterwards Belcastel’s) Foot, who rose to be a Brigadier in our army, and died in 1720. His son was John Petit, Esq., who, with his family, and with a brother, Captain Peter Petit, an officer in the army, inhabited the mansion of Little Aston, in the parish of Shenstone, Staffordshire, from 1743 to 1762. This family’s munificence is glowingly described by Rev. Henry Sanders in his History of Shenstone. John Petit married Mary, daughter of Mr. John Hayes of Wolverhampton, and had a daughter, Mary-Anne, and a son. The son was John Lewis Petit, B.A. of Cambridge, and M.D., Physician of St. Bartholomew’s Hospital, London, who died 27th May 1780, leaving by his wife (Katherine Letitia, daughter of Rev. James Serces of Hounslow) three sons: (1st) Rev. John Hayes Petit, M.A. of Cambridge, Perpetual Curate of Shareshill, Staffordshire, who died at Coton Hall, parish of Aveley, Shropshire, 26th July 1822; (2nd) Lieut.-Colonel Peter Hayes Petit of the 35th Foot, who died in 1809 (aged thirty-six) of a wound he received before Flushing, and was interred in the burial ground at Deal, with military honours, “a brave and much-lamented officer;” (3rd) Louis Hayes Petit, barrister of Lincoln’s Inn, M.P. for Ripon (born 1774, died 1849). Neither the second nor the third left descendants; but the first was the father of the (1) Rev. John Louis Petit, M.A., F.S.A., member of the British Archaeological Institute, &c, author and illustrator of “Remarks on Church Architecture,” 2 vols., 1841; “Architectural Studies in France,” 1854; “Notes on Circular Churches,” 1861; “Sketches made during a Tour in the East and on the Nile,” 1864-65, &c, &c, &c, born 1801,died 1869. (2) Lieut.-Colonel Peter John Petit, C.B., of the 59th Foot, died 1852. (3) Louis Peter Petit, Esq., barrister-at-law, died 1848. The Rev. J.L. Petit was the last male representative of his family. — (Gentleman’s Magazine [1822], and The Register for 1869, vol. i., pp. 220 and 525.)
# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Chhinpur

CHHINPUR.
At Chhinpur is a solitary laterite temple, but of no ancient date.
# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Dalmi and Barâ Bâzâr

DALMI.
Opposite Suissá, on the other side of the river, is Dulmi or Dalmi, said to possess a few fragments of sculpture; and further west, on the Kânchi river, close to Sonahátú, the villages of Jamdi, Burhadi, and Badla are also known as containing ancient remains. Ruins are also said to exist at and near the foot of Chanchalu hill.
BARÂ BÂZÂR.
Barâ Bâzâr or Barâbhum is said to possess one small old temple. I conjecture the name to be a contraction for Varahabhume, but I have nothing to offer for or against my conjecture, beyond the evident similarity of sound.
Six miles south-east of this place is the small village of Bangurda, said to contain ancient remains.
# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Chandimau

CHANDIMAU.
Chandimau is a small village on the west bank of the Panchâna river, and about 2 miles north-west of Giriyak; there are some few remains here. (See Broadley's paper, J. A. S., for 1872.)
Giriyak has been noticed by numerous writers and by General Cunningham in his report, to which I refer. The controversy between Mr. Broadley and General Cunningham regarding the mountain visited by Fa-hian ultimately resolves itself into the question, Is or is not Fa-hian's Siao-kou-shy-shan the same as Hwen Thsang's Indra-Sila mountain? Fa-hian's account of the legend attached to his rock is not only substantially the same as Hwen Thsang’s, but the existence of a cell facing the south is distinctly recorded by Fa-hian in his mountain. Now, although he places this cell on the top of the hill, I think there cannot be a doubt that the cave referred to is the Giddha-dwâr cave which faces south, and is at the top, not of the mountain, but of the pass, between the two ranges of hills which converge and meet at Giriyak.
In addition to the Giddhadwâr cave, there is a cave near the foot of the hill on the north side; it is a natural cavern of no interest, but is said by the people to communicate with the Giddhiadwâr cave; it is named the Shekbir cave. Close to it is a great boulder worshipped by the Musahars of the neighbourhood as Hathiya Deo.
# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Dhádki Tanr

DHÁDKI TANR.
Not far from this, at Dhádki Tanr, near Tulsi Garyá and Asanbani, was a large temple, in an enclosure 120 feet square; the temple faced east, and had a mahamandapa, and the other chambers usual in complete temples; the mahamandapa had windows in the projecting ends of the transept, as in the temples at Khajurâha and elsewhere, but, unlike them, the ​windows were not open but closed with plain stone lattices. The ornamentation externally consists entirely of plain, shallow recessed lines of mouldings, sparingly used; the temple had other subordinate temples round it, two to the north, two to the south, one in front, and probably there were two at the back, making seven small temples subordinate to the principal one in the middle. From the shallowness of the mouldings and the general appearance, especially of the subordinate temples and of their remains, I ascribe these temples to the period of Mân Singh; and in this opinion I am confirmed by noticing that some of the materials once clearly belonged to another temple, and being supplemented to the necessary extent with fresh materials, have been used in the present one; the difference between the older and the more recent material is quite plain, the latter being much more roughly cut. Odd fragments of mouldings are also seen in places where they have no business, clearly showing that the temple is built of materials from an older temple; the architrave of the outermost entrance lies on the ground, and has a lotus sculptured on its surface; the carving and scroll work of the doorway are all very shallow.
# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Chhorrá

CHHORRÁ.
About four miles before reaching Puralya, on the road from Barâkar, is the large village of Chhorrá; here are some ruins of old temples; two temples, partially ruined, still exist, and the stones of numerous others are to be seen used up in the huts of the village; some of the temples were Jain or Buddhist, as numerous votive chaityas with mutilated figures, either of Buddha or of one of the Jain hierarchs, lie in the village, but the greater number were, judging from the remains of sculpture lying about, Brahmanical, and principally Vaishnavic.
# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Deoli

DEOLI.
Close to it, about two miles north-east, is the small village of Deoli, so named from a group of temples still standing under a superb karan tree. The temples appear to have been Jain, as in the sanctum of the largest still exists, in situ, a fine Jain figure, now known as Áruánath, and to which offerings are made and pilgrimages performed by Brahmans and other Hindus of the neighbourhood; the deity is especially invoked by females wishing to have children, and offerings are chiefly made to it by them, the conditions of the success of their prayers being that the woman is to visit the spot and creep into the sanctum to make her offerings alone at night. The temple was once a very fine and large one, and had four subordinate temples near the four corners, of which two still exist; the main temple is too far buried in, and surrounded by, rubbish for its plan to be made out without excavation, but it consisted of a sanctum, an antarala, a mahamandapa, an arddhamandapa, and probably a portico; the ruins of the tower have now so shut up the entrance, that the only means of access is by crawling through, much in the manner of snakes; the ornamentation consisted of plain straight lines of mouldings, sparingly used, and the execution, as also the material, is coarse, the last being a coarse-grained sandstone. The statue in the sanctum is three feet high; it is, as usual, on a pedestal, on which ​the antelope is sculptured, thus clearly indicating the particular Jain hierarch the figure represents; over the trefoil ornament round the head are cut on each side two rows of three naked figures each.
Five hundred feet off are two tanks, touching each other, known as the Jorá-Pokhar; on the banks lies a mutilated bas-relief representing a man on an elephant, possibly meant for Indra on Airâvata; near it lies some stones and the amalaka of a temple, showing that the figure once belonged to a temple on the spot. This figure appears to point to the existence of Brahmanical temples also in the place. In the bed of the small tank to the south of the village lies the side part of a doorway adorned with plain lines.
Some other temples appear to have existed close to the Jain temple, noticed above; these were probably under a large bar tree close to the karan tree; nondescript fragments are collected at its roots and daubed with vermilion.
To south-east of this village at Atma are said to be two pieces of sculpture, one of a lion.
The village and the neighbourhood generally are said to have been covered with jangal till lately.
# Protestant Exiles from France/Volume 2 - Book Third - Chapter 26 - Lambert

Layout 2
​Lambert, Baronet. — Jean Lambert, an advocate, settled in the Island of Rhè, was a naturalized Frenchman, but a native of Devonshire. He had a son, Jean, a merchant, who, through the friendship of the Governor of the Island, was unmolested by the Romish persecutors, but sent his children to England to prevent their perversion to Popery. He continued to live at St. Martin, in the island of Rhè, till his death in 1702. His eldest son, John (who was born in 1666), thus received his education at Camberwell from 1680 to 1684, and returned to France, but came back to England in 1685 among the Huguenot refugees. We find the following notice of him:— “January 18, 1710, John Lambert, Esq., an eminent French refugee merchant in the city of London, was created a baronet of Great Britain, in consideration of his great services to the government.” — (Pointer’s “Chronological History,” Oxford, 1714.) The above is the date of his receiving the honour of knighthood; it was on the 16th February 1711 (n.s.) that he was made a baronet; his services were the giving of loans to the Queen’s government to the extent of £400,000. Sir John married Madeline, daughter of Benjamin Beuzelin of Rouen, and died in 1723. The title has descended regularly from father to son. Sir Henry Foley Lambert is the present and seventh baronet.
# Protestant Exiles from France/Volume 2 - Book Third - Chapter 26 - Baron Romilly

Layout 2
​Baron Romilly. — John, eldest surviving son of Sir Samuel Romilly, was born in 1802. He was called to the bar in 1827, and rose to be Solicitor-General in 1848, when he was knighted. Sir John Romilly became Attorney-General in 1850, and in 1851 was elevated to the Judicial Bench as Master of the Rolls. He presided over the great national act of opening up the Public Records for the researches of historical students and enquirers, a boon, the value of which is widely and gratefully felt to be incalculable. Sir John was for many years a member of the House of Commons. On 3rd January 1866 he was called to the Upper House as Baron Romilly of Barry in the county of Glamorgan. His Huguenot surname had already earned a world-wide and most honourable fame, and no title in the British peerage has a more noble sound than Lord Romilly. His Lordship had four sons and four daughters, and dying on 23rd December 1874, he was succeeded by his eldest son, William, second Lord Romilly. A bust of the first Lord was placed during his life in the principal search-room of the Public Record and State Paper Office, with the following inscription on the pedestal:—
Johanni Baroni Romilly Rot: Mag: Qui Historian Britannicae Fontes Aperuit Necnon Scripta Pervetusta Publici Juris Fieri Fecit Hunc Imaginem Grati Animi Ergo Et Observantiae Patriae Annalium Studiosi PP. A.D. mdccclxvii.
# Protestant Exiles from France/Volume 2 - Book Third - Chapter 26 - Borough

Layout 2
​Borough, Baronet. — The very learned Elie Bouhéreau (see chap, xii.) had a son, John, a clergyman, and another son, a Mayor of Dublin. The son of the latter, Richard, transmuted the surname into Borough. He had a son, Lieutenant-Colonel William Blakeney Borough, and a younger son, Sir Richard Borough, Bart, (so created 12th November 1813). Sir Richard (born 1756, died 1837), had married in 1799 Anna Maria, eldest daughter of Gerard, Viscount Lake, and was succeeded by his son, Sir Edward Richard Borough, Bart., D.C.L. (born 1800), who married Lady Elizabeth St. Lawrence, daughter of the Earl of Howth. Deep sympathy was felt for Sir Edward on the death of his two sons, Edward (before Sebastopol in 1855), and William (accidentally drowned in 1856). Thus he was the last baronet of ​Glenaveena, and died on 3rd December 1879. He is represented by his daughter, Margaret Anne Maria, Lady Campbell, widow of Sir George Campbell, Hart., of Succoth and Garscube.
# Protestant Exiles from France/Volume 2 - Book Third - Chapter 26 - De Crespigny

Layout 2
​De Crespigny, Baronet — The knightly Norman family of Champion, Sieurs dc la Fleurière, acquired, by marriage with an heiress, the estate of Crespigny. Its representative at the epoch of the Revocation was Claude Champion, Sieur de Crespigny, an officer of the French army. His wife was Marie, Comtesse de Vierville, and he had eight children. He fled to England along with his wife and children, two of whom were concealed in baskets, and they were hospitably received by the Pierpoints, to whom his family was allied by marriage. He was enrolled in the British army as a Colonel. He died in 1695 (aged seventy-five), his wife in 1708 (aged eighty); thus, after escaping from Gallic persecutions (to use the elegant words of their epitaph), tandem in caelum veram patriam transntigrârunt. His sons, Peter (who died in 1739, member of the committee of the London French Churches), Gabriel (an officer in the Guards), and Thomas (Captain in Sir Charles Hotham’s Dragoons), were naturalized in 1690. In 1691 it was certified by the London College of Arms that “we have seen and perused an old book of the pedigree of the said Champions, from Messire Mahens Champion, knight, who lived in the year of our Lord 1350, down to the said Claude de Champion, their father, deceased, in the city of London, 10th April 1695, and buried in Maribone.” Captain Thomas Champion alias Champion de Crespigny, married Magdelaine (who survived him), daughter of Israel Granger, escuyer, of Alencon, and dying in 1715, left a daughter, Jane, afterwards married to Gilbert Allix, Esq., and two sons, Philip and Claude (the latter died in 1782, unmarried). Philip Crespigny, Esq., King’s Proctor in Doctors Commons, died on 11th February 1765; he was the husband of Anne Fonnereau, and the father of Philip Champion de Crespigny, for some time King’s Proctor, M.P. for Aldborough, who died on 1st January 1803, and of Sir Claude Champion de Crespigny, Baronet, so created on 31st October 1805. The first baronet, who was the elder brother, born 19th December 1734, was a Fellow of Trinity Hall, Cambridge, and his name was further adorned by his beautiful and accomplished wife, Mary Clarke, who was a considerable heiress, and who, as Mrs. Crespigny, is handed down to posterity in glowing terms in “Public Characters.” Their house and grounds, Champion Lodge, Camberwell, were much admired. The first Baronet’s names were borne by the third Baronet, who was the grandson of Sir William, the second Baronet, and son of Captain Augustus James De Crespigny, R.N., a heroic officer, who saved nine men from a watery grave at the risk of his life. Captain De Crespigny’s last feat was his “taking to a small boat, and pulling into the very muzzles of the enemy’s guns, whereby he saved five men who were near drowning through the Achilles barge being sunk;” he died off Port Royal, Jamaica, on board of H.M.S. Scylla, 24th October 1825. The third Baronet (born 1818, died 1868) was succeeded by Sir Claude De Crespigny, present Baronet, formerly styled of Wivenhoe Hall, Essex, now of Champion Lodge, near Maiden.

​Vicomte Henri de Vismes. — The Viscount was the next brother of William, Comte De Vismes (or, De Visme), who, by permission of the French government, succeeded to the titles appertaining at the epoch of the Edict of the Revocation to his refugee chief, Gerard De Vismes. Philippe, son of Gerard, married in 1716. His sons were Philippe, Andrew, Louis (British Ambassador at Stockholm), Stephen, Gerard, Leo, William, and Benjamin. William continued the family by his marriage with Elizabeth, daughter of Elisee Auriol. His daughter was Elizabeth, Mrs. Edward Auriol Hay Drummond. His eldest son was Elisee William De Vismes (born 1758, died 1840) of the Coldstream Guards, who formally proved his nobility, and resumed his title and residence in France, where he died, and was succeeded by his eldest son, whose brother, Henry (entitled in France to the courtesy title of Viscount) represented the refugees, as an Englishman, till his death in 1874. His son, Captain Henry Auriol Douglas De Vismes, is now Baron De Vismes.
