I am also a descendant of the Dubocks (and various spelling variants!) - my 6x gt grandmother was Ann Dubock, daughter of Isaac Dubock (b c. 1721), who was the son of Isaac Dubock (b c. 1696) who was the son of Charles Dubock (b c. 1657 - think this was the chap who came over from Normandy to England). I think Charles Dubock's parents might have been Abraham Dubock and Jeanne Martin.
Not sure that this gives me huge amounts of kinship with Julia Sawalha though! (I must check again where her Dubocks link in)
My interest in Dubock relates to the descendants of Edward Dubock and Susannah Briggs who married 20 Feb 1792 at St Botolph Bishopsgate. Susannah's father Thomas was the half brother of one of my ancestors (although a number of online trees list her with different parents, her father's Will confirms her identity). According to the records of the French Hospital Edward was the son of George Dubock and grandson of an Isaac Dubock born in France. Where or which Isaac that is I don't know as its not my directline so haven't followed it backwards.
