FROM DAVID BALLANCE....
Henri Quatre of France and Navarre, ex-Huguenot and protector of protestants, was assassinated in 1610. The year before, at the Reform "Temple" of Lehaucourt, Saint Quentin, there was baptised in September a certain Pierre Descarri res. We do not know who his parents were, and there is no evidence that he was connected with Samson Descarri res, a Pursuivant of Arms to Louis XIII, however fervently John Ballance II may have sought to establish so romantic an ancestor. He seems to have been a cloth merchant. By his first marriage, at Rosi res in Picardy, 1634, he had only one son, who died as a child. Three years later, when he was apparently living at Nesle-en-Santerre. he married Anne Millot. Gradually he moved eastward, his first son, J r mie, being baptised in 1639 at Villers-Saint-Christophe, and his four later children at Saint Quentin, where he finally settled. He died there in 1675, the burial entry reading as follows:
"Aujourd'huy vingt sixi me de mars ....... a est enterr le corps de d funt Pierre Descarri res, marchand Saint Quentin qui, pendant douze ann es a exerc parmi nous la charge d'Ancien avec beaucoup de z le et d' dification, son enterrement ont assist Pierre Guichart et Jacques Le Serurier marchands Saint Quentin qui ont dit que led. d funt y est d c d cejourdhuy aag de soixante six ans...... ."
These details were recorded by Alfred Daulle-Le Cateau in La R forme Saint Quentin at aux environs du XVIe la fin du XVIIIe si cle (1902) and were given me by the Archives of the D partement of the Aisne at Laon. Unfortunately, many records were destroyed in 1944, but it may yet be possible to find out more about earlier Descarri res from printed sources. They are supposed to have come from Toulouse, and before that from Italy, but I know of no evidence for these origins. |

From David Ballance...
Jean Descarrieres was baptised at Saint Quentin in 1641 and became a "courtier de toiles", a cloth broker, there. By his marriage to Anne de Joncourt in 1666 he was the father of sixteen children. His eldest son, Jean, is the only one who much concerns us here; he was baptised on 5 February 1668. During his childhood, life was probably becoming increasingly difficult for Protestants in Saint Quentin, as elsewhere in France, and after 1685, when the Edict of Nantes was cancelled, almost impossible for those who wished to continue practising their faith in any public form. |
