Notes for Elmer Emmitt Parker:Elmer Emitt Parker was the fifth child of William A. Parker Jr. and Eva Louisa Landers Parker. Elmer was bornin Parker Canyon, which had been settled by his grandfather W.A. Parker Sr. in 1882. Having been born into theranch country of southern Arizona on April 28, 1895, horses, cows, brush-popping and roping were second natureto the happy go lucky and hard working youngster. Big for his age, he left ranch work at 16 for a muleskinner'sjob with an Army pack train that carried supplies to remote army camps. In those days, all civilian packers andteamsters were assigned to one troop, Parker reminisced. I was with Troop G of the Fourth Cavalry. "The armywas scattered up and down the border for hundreds of miles. The Hadero revolt was under way and the borderwas a hot spot."Driving a supply wagon wasn't quite as adventurous or as filled with excitement as some TV or movie scriptswould make it seem, but boredom never bothered anyone. Elmer recalls one incident on a short trip of 50 milesacross the Arizona trails. "It took us three days. It was the rainy season and as fast as we cleared one mud hole,the team and wagon would sink into another. We made only 12 miles the first day-from 4 a.m. to 10 p.m. Wewould go clear up to the axle in mud and there wasn't anything to do but unload, pull out load back up and then,about 30 yards down the trail, down we'd go again.""I remember another time when the rain caused a lot of misery. The troop was bedded down in a canyon when itbegan to rain. In no time, a wall of water about three feet deep came roaring down the mountain. They losteverything, we were all soaking wet. Their bedding was wet or gone and they were a miserable bunch."Elmer said he was camped in his wagon and stayed high and dry. The soldiers asked if they could join him andsoon about 15 troopers were huddled in the wagon.In 1913, the family moved to Los Angeles and he went back to cowboying in 1915 on Santa Rosa Island where asmany as 9000 head of cattle roamed at one time.A year later, he returned to Arizona and the Army again, this time as a truck driver on one of the first notarizedsupply caravans in the army.Then he began a new career-back in California at Terminal Island-he joined the Los Angles Fire Department.Firefighting back in those days was an uphill battle and all by hand, Elmer recalls. "All we had were hand reelsand 500 feet of hose. We had to drag it with us to every fire. And off the main street, the roads were nothing butsand. The reel would get stuck in the sand nearly every time. It's a good thing we had other reels, all stationed atdifferent points around town."Cow country called again and Elmer went back to ranching in Arizona, but he returned to San Pedro in 1918 towed Alice Harriman, whom he had met while a fireman on Terminal Island.After several years as a shipyard worker, dockhand, tank builder and dairyman, he rejoined the fire departmentwhere he spent 31 and a half years, all in the harbor area.Among the mementoes of his younger days are a number of guns-rifles, one of which was a Winchester 30.06,one of a few made especially for the Texas Rangers. It belonged to his father. Elmer also had other rifles,shotguns and revolvers of ail sizes and descriptions and a belt from the bell mare of the last pack train the Armyused. He also had kept some old stirrups, wild steer horns, a horse hair lariat and old spurs, and of course, his

cowboy boots and a 10-gallon hat.Elmer and Alice raised two daughters Malvina and Helen. He bought houses and apartments and repaired them.He rented them during the family's many years in San Pedro.Elmer lived at 230 W. Ninth St. San Pedro California. Elmer died in San Pedro on June 14, 1971.

Notes for Alice Josephine Harriman:Born on the corner of 5th and Wall Street, Los Angeles, California.Married 6/4/1918, 3:20 PM, at the home of Father P. McGrath, Center Street, San Pedro, California

From a two installment San Pedro Beacon newspaper article dated 9/2 and 9/3/1963

When They Were Very YoungAlice Parker Reminisces of Childhood on Terminal IslandBy MARY BRANDVIGTerminal Island, soon to be scene of the dedication of a modern achievement, the Vincent Thomas Bridge, oncewas the scene of an even more romantic event.The time was 45 years ago. The leading characters in the romance were Alice Harriman and Elmer Parker.The pretty doll faced girl and her Arizona cowboy husband boarded the ferryboat Real for their elopement acrossthe channel to San Pedro. They climbed the bluff and hurried up the hill to old Mary Star of the Sea Church.There, Fr. McGrath performed the marriage ceremony in his rectory.Today, the couple lives a half block from the scene of that elopement. Alice also was confirmed and received herfirst holy communion in the old church.Mr. and Mrs. Parker reside now on Ninth St.Their house is near neighbor to the old Dr. William Guidinger and Lucky Foote homes, and other residences ofwell-known old-timers.A descendant of the historic Machado family, related to the Sepulvedas, Alice Parker was the daughter ofJosephine Oden Harriman and Edgar F. Harriman.Mrs. Parker, 66, admits to being an old-timer, but emphatically states "I'm not old."Her mother, Mrs. Harriman, was daughter of George W. Oden. He came from West Virginia to Wilmington morethan a century ago and soon after the arrival here of Phineas T. Banning.Oden was a carpenter and wheelwright. He soon was making coaches and wagons and teaching his trade to others.Several vehicles he made are known to be still in existence. One is at the L.A. County Museum in Exposition Parkand one remains at Banning Manor in Wilmington. George had another distinction. He married sisters. First hemarried Maria, then Ellen, both widows, who were daughters of Antonio Machado.Alice's great grandmother was the widow of Dolores Sepulveda, who was killed in a fight with the Indians, as hewas returning south from the city of Monterey.Alice's earliest childhood memory goes back to the first home of her parents, in what was known as East SanPedro. Her mother and father were the third couple to move onto the island, that later became the home of many.They lived near the center of the island's west side, just south of the present ferry terminal.A few years later, in 1906, they moved nearer to her father's job with the Southern California Lumber Company.The firm later became Blinn, then Fatten Blinn Co. and their home and lumber yard was located across the tracksfrom the Crescent Wharf.An only child, surrounded by a quiet world of meadows, tule swans and the waters of San Pedro Bay, Alice hadfew playmates."My best pal was a dog named Snooky." she recalled.The fun came on weekends, when there was a family gathering. Sometimes the Odens would ride in somebody'swagon out to White Point for a picnic at Uncle Roman Sepulveda's park.Or a rowboat would be filled with happy relatives for a jaunt to Wilmington. There the grown-ups would dance inthe old white warehouse which still stands near the Catalina terminal complex.Later, as teen-agers, they'd row across or take Duffy's row- boat ferry to San Pedro. They'd dance at "old manSwinford's dance hall on Fifth St." Alice said the hall, built in 1881 by John C. Swinford, is still standing afterbeing moved from its original site.Little Alice enjoyed several boat trips with her mother including one on a lumber ship to visit San Franciscorelatives. "I was sick all the way," she said.She also traveled on the old Harvard and Yale coastal steamers, visiting along the coast.Boat watching was an everyday pastime of interest. Alice remembers seeing a few of the last of the sailing shipscome in with their cargo.She walked to the old Terminal Island School with another young islander, Mrs. George (Camille) Conant of

Wilmington, the Bartell girls, and others.Later, when the teen-age population of the island went to high school, they rowed across to Wilmington through"fog, rain, and sunshine." It took the little group more than an hour to hike to the boat. cross the bay, then walk tothe old Wilmington High School on Anaheim. Among the gang crossing with them was Wilder Hartley, later tobe a city councilman, and her friends, Myrtle and Verna Markey.Their grammar school still stands on the Island. "It was a one story building" Alice recalled, "Then it was raisedup and a story built beneath it. It's still there and I believe the Navy uses it for something."

She often was offered rides on the lumber wagons with her father, or friends among the drivers. Sheremembers riding the first load of lumber into the meadow where the construction of the lower reservation of FortMacArthur began.She rode another first load of lumber to Robal Inn, now Green Gables, on Beacon St. When the Inn was finished,she recalled, "It was The Place to go."The lumber wagons and teams of horses rode an early day ferry across the channel, inspiring its name, the TeamFerry. Later the Islander took its place. At other times, the lumber would be loaded on the train to cross the trestleto Long Beach.Parker, too, traces his ancestry to the early days. His grandfather. William A. Parker crossed through the SouthernRoute to California in 1848. He went back to Springfield, Missouri, for his family. They returned, crossing byDonner Pass in 1852. Parker's aunt was born in a wagon in Donner Pass during a three-foot snowfall. The wagontrain made it safely to Sacramento.Parker's father wandered through California and Arizona, taking his family along with him. Elmer Parker wasborn in Parker Canyon, Ariz., which like other landmarks in the area bore the name of his grandfather. Aftermoving so many times as a boy and young man, he has "stayed put" since 1913.As he says with a grin, "We've been out a long time, but mostly around home."Mrs. Parker remains active in community activities. She is a member of a number of groups including theWoman's Club of San Pedro and the San Pedro Community Hospital Auxiliary. Taking most of her time now isthe Community sing at Anderson Memorial Hall, where she has been chairman for nine years. Another favoritegroup is Rudecinda Parlor, 230, Native Daughters of the Golden West, in which she is a past president. BothParkers are members of the Thirty Year Club of which she is charter president.Their daughters, Mrs. Gordon (Malvina) Mumford and Mrs. Helen D. Armstrong, plus two granddaughters andtwo grandsons, all live nearby. The grandchildren are sixth generation Californians.

Views and InterviewsHanson R. SiskThe Parker FamilyIt was in 1849 and the cry of Gold came out of California. It echoed in the hills of Missouri and was answered bya group of young Missourians who headed toward the setting sun in search of wealth and adventure.In the party was William Parker, a sturdy young American, who looked to the new lands in the West. The party

4 03 Nov 2008

traveled over the old Butterfield stage route, which was through Southern Arizona. The trail led down the SanPedro River in Cochise County and though the little Mexican town of Santa Cruz in Sonora. Then followed theSanta Cruz River, a pause at Tubac, then down the Gila and on to California. Near Santa Cruz the party wasattacked by Indians, but fought them off.The Huachuca Mountains were covered with tall grass and watered by many springs. They appealed to WilliamParker but he continued his journey to California. At the time Southern Arizona was a part of Sonora althoughnegotiations were then underway for its purchase by the United States. Pete Kitchen had not arrived In the SantaCruz Valley and Colonel Charles Potion had not established headquarters in Tubac.Parker settled in San Luis Obispo, Calif. He mined for gold and farmed the rich California soil. He became thefather of a number of children and the youngest was W. A. Parker. Soon California lost its appeal to the elderParker and in 1868 he heard of the growing Territory of Arizona and moved with his family to Prescott. In 1880when the territorial capital was changed to Phoenix he moved again, this time to the growing small town ofPhoenix. That same year another move was made to the Huachuca Mountains of Southern Arizona which theelder Parker remembered when he crossed them in 1849 in the gold rush days.His children, now grown into adult life, all went along and settled in Southern Arizona among them, W. A.Parker. Other members of the original family were James Parker, John Parker, Mrs. Elizabeth Fenter, Mrs. NancyBennett, and Mrs. Melvina Sorrels, all of whom have passed, away.The elder Parker died in 1890 in the canyon, which became known, and is still known, as Parker Canyon. By thistime the family had increased in number and the Parker name was known far and wide in Southern Arizona.His youngest son also followed his father's life of ranching and as time grew on he became known as 'Uncle Billy'Parker. He also became the patriarch of a large family.'Uncle Billy' died in Nogales Thursday at the ripe old age of 86 years. He had been a resident of this area for 66years.He was first married in 1884, to Eva Landers and the ceremony was performed at Lochiel by the late JudgeHarrison, father of James A. Harrison of Nogales.He was in this area when singing railroad workers connected the rail line which connected Arizona and Sonora atNogales. He took part in the campaign against marauding Indians, defending his home and property on severaloccasions. He was almost 40 years of age when Santa Cruz County was carved out of Pima County in 1899. Inthat year his wife died. In 1905 he married again to Annie Musgrave.Among his children was Lon Parker, his youngest son, who joined the Border Patrol. Lon was ambushed and slainin 1926 near Nogales and buried with honors in the American Legion cemetery here.'Uncle Billy' will be buried tomorrow and wilt be laid to rest beside his son. He was the last surviving member ofthe original Parker family, which made history in Santa Cruz County.

Notes for William Llonzo Parker:LON PARKER.....April 26, 1892 - July 25, 1926by Ed Pyeat DCPA Tuscon Sector

The United States Border Patrol was created in May, 1924. Lon Parker was the 7th Border PatrolInspector slain in the line of duty. The first Patrol Inspectors were selected from a civil service register of

5 03 Nov 2008

prospective postal employees. Subsequent Border Patrolmen were local lawmen, cowboys, ranch handsand country boys recruited from border towns and ranches. The tough work of the young Border Patroldemanded a tough breed of man. Lon Parker fit the demand.

Born William Lonn Parker on April 26, 1892, at Parker Canyon, Arizona Territory, "Lon" was gradeschooled at Parker Canyon and attended high school at Tombstone. Lon's nickname of "Skinny"followed him when he joined the U.S. Army during World War I. Parker served on the front lines withthe 89th Infantry Division, 340th Field Artillery, Battery A. Lon Parker went to war in the same outfit asmany other southwest youths, including future Tucson Sector Border Patrol Chief Carson Morrow.

Lon Parker took the Border Patrol examination in Los Angeles, California, and entered on duty with hislast outfit on September 26, 1924. Young Parker acquitted himself as well in the Border Patrol as he hadin the U.S. Army. His Chief Patrol Inspector, Walter Miller, once said of Lon Parker that he "was notafraid of the devil himself!"

"Too Late for the Fun!"Just two weeks into his Patrol career, Lon Parker took up the trail of three suspected liquor smugglersnear Wills Ranch, on the west side of the Huachuca Mountains of southern Arizona. After a short rideParker came under steady rifle fire from the mescal runners. Lon emptied his pistol, then charged one ofthe smugglers, threw him to the ground and took his rifle. With the smuggler's rifle, Parker shot both theothers through the "loin of the leg."

Several nearby Border Patrol officers were alerted by the sounds of the gunfire and hurried to assist.They found Lon Parker seated on a rock. Lon told them, "Sorry, but you're too late for the fun." parkerdiscovered the rifle he had wrested from the smuggler had been stolen from his Dad's ranch earlier thatsame day.

"Inspector Bill McKee Killed by Smugglers"A liquor smuggling ring was known by Border Patrol Inspectors to be operating near the AlambreRanch, northwest of Nogales, Arizona. On April 23, 1926, Inspectors Herbert Wood, Philip Raymond,Quince Leatherman, Billy Gates, Lon Parker and Bill McKee were lying in ambush to catch thetraffickers.

As the Arizona spring day was turning to dusk, the inspectors surprised three mounted "rum runners"driving six pack horses loaded with illicit alcohol. The bootleggers deserted the pack animals and fled.The officers unloaded the pack horses and loaded the alcohol into one of the two "machines" (autos) inwhich they had arrived, then lit out after the smugglers. The inspectors in the loaded automobile led thepack horses, while the others drove ahead after the smugglers.

Two miles away a brief but fierce gunfight occurred. The smugglers again fled. Lon Parker and QuinceLeatherman mounted two of the pack horses and followed, but were unable to overtake the better-mounted assailants. Bill McKee was found a short distance away from one of the inspectors' vehicles. Hehad been shot through the heart.

Two of the killers were arrested by Border Patrol Inspectors and local lawmen at the Perron Ranch, nearSan Javier, six days later. The third was arrested in Casa Grande that same day. Chief Patrol InspectorWalter Miller said Lon Parker's tireless investigative efforts were "largely responsible" for theidentification and arrest of McKee's killers.

"July 25, 1926"Lon Parker joined friends and family for a Sunday afternoon picnic at the McDaniel place on the northside of Korn Canyon, about seven miles southeast of Canille. On today's maps you'll have to look for"Canelo", not Canille. A nephew of Lon Parker blames the U.S. Forest Service for the "mongrelization"of the old community's name.

A rancher and tracker named John Merritt told Lon Parker at the picnic that he had seen sign of a rider orriders and a pack animal headed toward Fort Huachuca. Lon Parker left the gathering around 4:30 p.m.to head off the smuggling load. A Parker family member related that Parker asked Patrol InspectorHerbert Wood if he would ride to assist. Wood declined as he worried his wife and family would have toget themselves home to Patagonia in the face of a building summer storm. Lon Parker went alone.

When the Wills family returned to their ranch home at 6:00 p.m from the picnic, they found Lon Parkerlying mortally wounded against their wood pile. His horse and dog stood guard over their fallen partner.Parker died moments later without divulging any details of his ordeal.

Heavy summer rains on the night of July 25, 1926, challenged lawmen in their attempt to retrace Lon

6 03 Nov 2008

Parker's trail. It was a first unknown if Parker was killed in Santa Cruz or Cochise County. Officers fromboth counties took part in the search and investigation. On Monday afternoon, July 26, Patrol Inspectors,county lawmen and local ranchers found a dead man a dead packhorse 2 1/2 miles from the Wills Ranch.Both were shot once only. Newspaper accounts citing Chief Inspector Miller and the Sheriffs of Cochiseand Santa Cruz Counties agreed that Lon Parker had caught the liquor smuggler and was shot fromambush by a second smuggler. Lon Parker then shot and killed the liquor runner and the horse, whichwas carrying 20 gallons of mescal.

Pat Patterson, undersheriff of Santa Cruz County, said Parker was covered with mud on one side as hewas unhorsed by the mortal wound. Chief Miller surmised from empty shells and sign found somedistance from the dead man that Parker had reloaded his weapon before remounting his horse. LonParker's guns were loaded when he died at Wills' Ranch.

A report in a Tucson newspaper identified the dead man as a Mexican liquor smuggler named Cruz.Immigration and Naturalization Service documents identify him as Artilio Espinosa, a well knownMexican smuggler. Another news article from Tucson claimed Cochise County Sheriff J.F. McDonaldput officers on lookout for Manuel Reyes, a 19 year old Mexican whom he believed to be Lon Parker'skiller. McDonald said two of his deputies fired rounds at Reyes on Monday, July 26, in a canyon nearwhere Parker was slain. Reyes escaped in a heavy rain. There is no evidence to indicate that Parker'skiller was brought to justice.

"Epilogue"Lon Parker was, by all accounts, a brave man. His courage and modest approach to life on the borderwere best reflected in a story told by a fellow Arizonan and, finally, in a simple entry from his dailyBorder Patrol work log.

Fred D'Albini was also born a southern Arizonan. He recalled a day when he was riding across CampiniMesa, on the south side of the Huachuca Mountains, with a "half-breed" Mexican boy who was workingthe trapping trade with him. D'Albini said he carried a .22 pistol to kill game. On this day the boy hadasked to carry the gun. Fred said he thought it made the boy "feel big."

D'Albini and the youth met Lon Parker and his partner Albert Gatlin, "horseback, going the in theopposite direction." The boy jerked the gun out of his chaps pocket, pointed it directly at the two andsaid, "hands up!" Fred said Lon Parker and Albert Gatlin did nothing but sit their horses calmly andParker said, "You better put that gun away before somebody gets hurt." He said the kid did soimmediately, realizing he'd made a big mistake. D'Albini said it scared "hell" out of him as he knew theywere Border Patrolmen and armed with pistols and rifles.

Fred D'Albini swore his great respect for Lon Parker and Albert Gatlin. He later joined the Border Patrolhimself and served with distinction.

Patrol Inspectors kept a daily log of their activity, time worked and miles traveled by horseback or by"machine". Lon Parker's entry for the eventful day he mounted a pack horse and chased Bill McKee'skillers simply read,

"Apr 23 - '26"Scouted to Sierra Prieta Mts9 AM - 1 AM 80 miles"

William Lonn Parker was laid to rest on Tuesday, July 27, 1926, in the Nogales, Arizona, Cemetery.

The men were busy building a house up Coal River. John McElhaney was sick inthe fort. About four o'clock that afternoon, some of the children were out on the bank of the Kanawha Riverplaying ball and Christian Tackett was with them. Some Indians who had approached them under the cover of theriver bank, showed themselves but a few yards from the boys and raised the terrible cry of their nation. Tackettand the boys fled. He reached the gate, but waited for the children to get in before he made it fast. The Indiansrushed upon the gate and forced it open. He then started for the house where he had left his gun but was shotdown and tomahawked in the yard, as were the children. John McElhaney hearing the cry without, closed thedoor, but in doing it had three of his fingers shot off. Unable to defend themselves and the Indians promisingprotection if they would surrender, Mrs. McElhaney prevailed with her son to open the door and admit them.There were in the Fort at that time John McElhaney, his mother, his wife, Hannah Tackett (wife of Christopher),Betsy Tackett, Mary Townsend, two boys, Samuel Tackett and Samuel McElhaney, who were taken by theIndians.

Notes for Jose'F Manuel Orchaga Y Machado:[Brøderbund WFT Vol. 3, Ed. 1, Tree #5532, Date of Import: Jan 22, 2002]Jose's full name = JOSE MANUEL MACHADO y YANEZBirth year is well documented for Jose and Maria, but actual date is not known.Jose and Maria had 66 grandchildren.

1781Los Angeles is founded and, while the pueblo is still young, its citizens discover that the Culver City valley isgood pasture ground for cattle.Within the decade after the eleven families from Sonora and Sinaloa started building Los Angeles' first houses,the names of Machado, Higuera, Talamantes and Lopez were established in the community.Members of these families were to become the first white settlers along Ballona Creek, the first white occupantsof the valley land that stretches from Culver City to the sea.One of the soldier-guard who came from Sonora to Los Angeles as a member of the Rivera-Moncada expeditionof 1781 was 25-year-old Jose' Manuel Machado. He brought with him a 17-year-old wife, Maria. It was thisMachado whose sons Augustin and Ygnacio were to settle Rancho La Ballona.A few years after the founding of the Pueblo, Felipe Talamantes and his brother Tomas became Los Angelescitizens. Later they shared with the young Machado men in their ranch venture.The alcalde of the pueblo in the year 1800 was Joaquin Higuera. His son, Bernardo, was to settle the land thatadjoined the Rancho La Ballona on the northeast - Rancho Rincon de los Bueyes.Meanwhile the people of the pueblo, with vague ideas about the boundaries of their own four square leagues ofland, needed more good pasturage for their cattle. The Rincon and the Ballona, lying to the southwest, couldqualify and in addition were so far from San Gabriel and San Fernando as to be unclaimed by the Missions.At a very early period, then, cattle owners from the pueblo were visiting the Culver City valley.

Notes for Maria Del Carmen De La Luz Valenzuela:Maria's full name = MARIA de la LUZ del CARMEN VALENZUELAS y AVILLASMaria may have been born in Spain but El Real de los Alamos, Sonora Mexico is far more likely..

In Sister Wittenburg's biography of the Machados she uses Jose Agustin Antonio Machado y Valenzuelain some places.

At one time Agustin owned 5 pieces of property in the Pueblo, sold a house on Main Street to JoseChapman, owned a 2 acre tract in the vicinity of 2nd and Main Streets, Owned a 21 1/2 acre tract of landin the Pueblo adjacent to his town house on which he had 5,000 vines and 50 fruit trees undercultivation, located between 4th and 5th Streets on Main. a second vineyard was on West WashingtonBlvd., Site of Polytechnic High School.

Angeles an 18 gallon barrell sold for $10.00 and in northern California it sold for $25.00.

It is believed that Agustin moved from the Pueblo to the La Ballona Rancho with his family soon after1836 census.On August 17, 1855 Agustin purchased 3 leagues (approx., 13,000 acres) of Rancho SantaRosa in San Diego County from Juian Moreno for cash and $500.00 in stock. Rancho Santa Rosa, whichcontained approx., 11 leagues or 47,815.10 acres, had been granted to J Moreno on January 30 1864.

On July 21, 1858 Agustin purchased La Laguna Rancho, 1,3338 acres which adjoined Rancho SantaRosa, from Abel Stearns for $6,000. Agustin and son Juan Bautista constructed an adobe house on it,north east corner of La Laguna (now Lake Elsinore) at Machado and Grand Avenue. The adobe housebecame a designated relay station on the long Butterfield Mail and Passenger line. The war between theStates put and end to mail service in 1861.

Judging from tax assessments of the period 1858 both Rancho Rosa and La Laguna Rancho wereregarded as on unit and were the management of his oldest son Juan Bautista.

The entire La Laguna Rancho, with the exception of about 500 acres was sold in 1873 to Charles ASumner for $29,000 in gold. Bautista held on to the remaining acreage until 1883 to subdividers from themidwest.

Notes for Sr. Lewis Tacquett:[Tackett.ged]

The Immigrant Ancestor of most with the Tackett surname in the U.S. are descendents of the French Huguenot(Protestant) Lewis Tacquett. Lewis was born in France, moved to England as a youngster and shortly after 1686migrated to the Colony of Virginia. By 1711 he had settled on a small land grant on Cedar Run in present PrinceWilliam County, VA (then Stafford Co) along with another French Huguenot Lewis Reno.

http://awtc.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=snowbeard54&id=I317@NI317@ Lewis Tacquett (ca 1675 - ca 1744) was born about 1675 to a Huguenot (Protestant) family in France.His immigration to America was a direct result of religious persecution in France. The Edict of Nantes, a decreeof King Henry IV in 1598, ended a series of religious wars between Catholics and Protestants that began in 1562.The Edict provided some measure of religious freedom to the Huguenots but its provisions were never fullyimplemented. Persecution of Protestants continued especially after 1681. Then, in 1685 the Edict was revolked byLouis XIV and hundreds of thousands of Huguenots were forced to flee France and take refuge in ProtestantCountries.<br> That the family of Louis Tacquett fled to England is shown by his name being found on a 1686-87list of Huguenots for whom passage to Virginia was paid by an Englishman, Nicholas Hayward. Also included onthis list was Louis Reynaud (Reno) who came to Virginia at the same time and whose family was very close to theTacketts there.
