Most people don’t think they have a Huguenot ancestor. I often find that the ancestor is hiding right in front of their face. You just have to know where to look and how to look. The National Huguenot Society is doing a good job of helping people find their ancestors. There are some good resources out there, but most people don’t know what they are. Let me tell you a little bit about the Huguenots and how to find your Huguenot ancestor.
