The Du Moulins appear to have been among the noblesse of the Isle de France, our English dignitaries belonging to the younger or Lorme-Grenier branch, the learned jurist Charles Du Moulin to the elder or Mignaux branch. Of this family, it is said, was Charles Dutnoulin, in whose chateau of Brus-sous- Eorges, the tower of which is still standing, the early years of Anne Boleyn were passed. 1 The Royal licence was given in 1586 to French Protestants and their ministers to live in Scotland, and Joachim Du Moulin was among the first to come over. The Haddington Presbytery had before them, 18 Oct. 1589, "the warrant from the Synodal for the ingadering of the support to Mr. — Muling banest out of Prance." See Agnew's Protestant Exiles, iii., 118. 2 Pierre Du Moulin was born at the Chateau de Butry in le Yexin, where his father had found a shelter with Duplessis-Mornay. He studied successively at Sedan, Paris, for four years at Cambridge, and at Leyden, where he was elected Professor of Philosophy in 1595*, or according to Haag at the age of 24 (1592). He came to London, as did Isaac Casaubon, on the invitation and as the guest of James I. (who criticized his Vocation des Pasteurs) in 1615, and at this time received his Prebendal Stall in Canterbury, and possibly further English preferment. In 1626 he appears, from Atlien. Oxon. (ii., 863), to have succeeded Dr. Godfrey Goodman (who, in 1620, on his preferment to the Deanery of Rochester, had been followed in his Essex living of Stapleford-Abbots by another Protestant Refugee, Cesar Calandrini) in the sinecure living of Llanarmon in Yale; and in Fasti Oxon., i., 329, it is noted that " Old Peter du Moulin of Sedan had the sinecure Rectory of Llanhrayader in Derbyshire, which he enjoyed in 1646." He was 38 years Professor of Theology at Sedan, where he had fled on the discovery of a letter of his to King James on behalf of the Protestants, and where he died. La France Protestante (MM. Haag) gives a list of no less than 80 publications of his, and it may be added that he pronounced the funeral oration on Henri IV. 3 Peter Du Moulin studied successively at Sedan, Leyden, and in England. "While tutor for some two years at Oxford to Lord Dungarvan and the Hon. Richard Boyle, he constantly preached in the church of St. Peter's in the East. In 1567 he received the Vicarage of Bradwell, Bucks, but resigned it in a few days. The Fasti gives a full list of his works, much admired in their day, in number 17. The most noted were Defense de la religion reformee et de la Monarchic et eglise AngUcane, 1650; and Regii Sanguinis clamor ad coelum adversus parricidos AngUcanos in 1652, to which Milton replied in 1654. He appears to have latterly resided at Canterbury till his death in 1684. His will, dated 7 October 1684, was proved in the Consistory Court on the 13th of the same month {Lib. 55,146) by his niece, the residuary legatee and sole executrix, Theodosia Du Moulin.

Haag) it is asserted that he " avait epouse Anne Clavier, d'une noblesse originaire de Prance. II en eut Louis qui prit pour fenime Rebecca Taylor," etc It will be seen, however, by the above- quoted will that, while he apparently left no posterity, he oertainly had a nephew Louis. Whether this nephew was, aa is more probable, the son of Dr. Louis, of whom_ no will is extant, or of Cyrus, is a faot yet to be ascertained; and the Compiler would be grateful for any information. There also remain unplaced Ann Du Moulin, who on 25 Oct. 1722 was married in Canterbury Cathedral to Simon Gilbert, of Aldington; and Ann Du Moulin, spinster, of St. George's, NOTES TO THE PEDIGREES. 37

Botolph Lane, London, who in her will, dated 3 Nov. 1718, and proved in the P.C.C. 19- Sept. 1734 (203, Ockham), refers to some house property, which she leaves to a stranger in blood, Thomas Downes, as having been given her by her mole, the late Dr. Peter Du Moulin. 4 Louis Du Moulin was a Nonconformist and hot Controversialist. Haag gives a list of 24 publications of his, of whioh Patronus bona fidei in Causa Puritanorum, Lond. 1672, 8vo, was in answer to Dr. Durel's Sanctce Eeclesice Anglicanas adversus iniquas atque inwrecundas Schismaticorwm criminationes Vindicim, and of which his last was The last words of Lewis du Moulin : being his retractation of all the personal reflections he had made on the Divines of the , London, 1680. 5 Of him said that he was better adapted for a Minister of State than a minister of a parish. His brother Henri Basnage de Beauval, also a refugee in Holland and not unknown as an author, married Marie Amsincq, aunt to the wife of Dr. Balthazar Regis, Rector of Adisham, 1717-57.

NOTES TO THE PEDIGEEE OF DE L'ANGLE. (See page 31.) 1 entered in 1640 at Merlon College, Oxford, but when that city came to be garrisoned by Charles I., retired into France. Ordained in Paris by Thomas Sydeserf, Bishop of Galloway. During Samuel Boohart's absence in Sweden, he served the Reformed Church at . Returning to England on the Restoration, he was instrumental in establishing the French Church of the Savoy in 1661. He is said by Chalmers, in the Biographical , and by other authorities, to have held the Vicarage of Witney. His institution or incumbency is not to be found in the parish records, whether at the Record Office, the Diocesan Registry, or those preserved in the parish. But these being all imperfect, he may very possibly have held this preferment. See the memoir in the Athenm Oxonienses, iv., 87-94 (Ed. of 1820), where of his merits as a Controversialist it is said that " Several of his professed adversaries do give him great commendations, particularly Lewis Du Moulin, who saith that ho is ' in familiar! progressu vir civilis ingenio, ore probo, pectore niveo, orationo proftuente et lenocinante,'" etc. 2 J. M. De L'Angle was succeeded in his prebend by Dr. William Egerton (grandson of the Earl of Bridgwater), the pluralist Rector of Allhallowes, Lombard Street, and of Cowden and Penshurst, both in co. Kent, who married Anne, dau. of Sir Francis Head, 2nd Bart., and cousin-german to Mrs. Theophilus De L'Angle. The following inscription, probably from the pen of Dr. Robert Freind, who was celebrated for his Latin epitaphs, is in Croughton Church:— Hie cum certa | resurgendi spe sepultus est | JOANNES MAXIMILIANUS DEL'ANGLE | SAMUELIS DEL'ANGLE S.T.P. | de CHAEENTON juxta Parisios | Celebris olim Ecclesise Pastoris | deinde, pulsls in exilium Protestantibus | Ecclesise WESTMONASTEBIENSIS Praebendarii | Alius; | et magni BOCHAETI ex sorore nepos; | Patria Gallus, fide omnino Anglus | Qui [ hujusce parochiao curam administravit, | Rector pius integer industrius | a suis omnibus et dilectus et cultus | Uxorem duxit ANNAM FEEIND | Gulielmi Annas que filiam | quso marito desideratissimo | H. M. P. | Obiit An. Dom. 1719, Aug. 20, set. 53. 3 For the family of Freind see Nichols' Literary Anecdotes, v., 84-105. It may be noted, by the way, that about the same date there flourished another Canon of Canterbury of French Refugee origin, in the person of Dr. Louis Herault, who was buried in the Cathedral 5 Nov. 1682. This divine, who had become minister of the London Walloon Church in 1643, was forced, being a zealous Royalist, to fly t o France during the Commonwealth. But at the Restora- tion he returned to his ministry, and soon after received his Prebendal Stall. From a nuncupative will, made on 2 Nov. 1682, in the presence of John Maximilian and Genevieve De L'Angle, and of Arnold Bouchery, when he appointed John Dela Pierre alias Peters, Doctor in Phisicke,hisEx'or (Consisty. Court, Lib. 55,17), it appears that he left a wife Martha, and four daughters, Susanna, Mary, Anne, and Margaret Champion.
