Europe / Re: Name Latue - country of origin.

My husband won't hear of DNA I'm afraid. Not sure if either of our sons would as they are not interested in Family History at all , yet. We do have a photograph of Elizabeth Ann Booth  and her sister who lived with Lizzie as she was known

Europe / Re: Name Latue - country of origin.

You are right of course, Robert was father of Margaret not Andrew!. Margaret's son Joseph Latue Booth married Margaret Jane Outterside in 1869. Their daughter Elizabeth Ann was born 1873, she married Benjamin Parkins Heron in 1894, then Thomas Edward Riddell in 1897. Thomas and Margaret had three sons, Harry Latue Riddell was my husband's father. The Latue name Margaret Latue insisted was to be carried on to remember the French Huguenot connection. I believe all her sons had Latue as a middle name.

We live in Yorkshire now but I was born and brought up in Co.Durham, my husband was brought up in Durham from age 3 so we are both very familiar with the places the Latues lived in.  We are going into Durham tomorrow and will be very near Pittington in fact.

Hi there

My husband is descended from Andrew Latue's daughter Margaret who married a Joseph Booth. It's true that many Huguenots went to the Netherlands to live but I believe the Family story that this branch began in France.

Hi, I have been researching the Latue name for my husband for some years. The Latue name was given as a middle name for many years and the story was that it was in memory of a French Huguenot connection. Be happy to hear from anyone and to share information

Kind regards

May be just a coincidence but there is a Pecks House Farm in Macklesfield Cheshire....not too far from Crewe. The address is Pecks House farm, Rushton Spencer, Macclesfield and the owner appears to be a W.Wood now.

That is good news but are there any more clues on Rose Peck? No more names? Her father, husband  or siblings? Even a mention such as Rose was a young girl would help. Seems strange only Roses name has been remembered down through time , but you are a good few steps nearer now.
