My grandmother's maiden name was Maynard, which is both an English and French surname. Is it a likely Huguenot surname?

Hi,
I have just been reading your post and am a little curious.... my grandfather once wrote a little note on his family and added a note to say the Wilson's came from the Hugeenots and were thought to have brought lace making here.  Could anyone confirm the link?  It would be interesting to find more info.  At present I am only back to John Wilson around 1725 in Folkestone and his wife Catherine Minter and am now totally stuck!

Does anyone know if any Huguenots settled in Lanarkshire? I have found an ancestor called Isobell Muter and I believe the Muters came over from France sometime before the 1750s and 4 brothers settled in the Stonehouse area of Lanarkshire, 3 on farms, and 1 to Edinburgh where I think he went into textiles.
        Just wondering if anyone has come across Huguenots living in that part of the country.
                     Many thanks  Linda.

I am currently researching ny family tree and have info about Muters(Mutters) in Scotland which was collected by my maternal grandmother. An Isobel Lahoar appears on that tree. Will send the info if you like.There is also a Lanrkshire connection(Larkhall) Do get in touch. Morag Thomson
