Henry Prevot Jeanne de Viffe

Charles Prevot 1 master wheelwright (1673) 2 of Dunkirk 3 born circa 1650, Dombroy, near Lille 4 died before July 1688, Cape of Good Hope 5 Notes: The details of this family come from the Church registers of the Protestant Church at Guines, near Calais, as transcribed by W. Minet and W.C. Walter, 1891, and recorded in the book by C. G. Botha, The French Refugees at the Cape, 1919, and the article by M. Boucher, The Cape Huguenots from the Calaisis, in Familia vol.12 no.1, 1975, p.6-17. At the Cape the family name was most often spelled 'Provo', one assumes that this was a literal spelling of the pronunciation that its bearers gave it, similar, if so, to the modern one.
