Shared note

1585

In the writings on "The Troubles brought to Valenciennes on account of Heresies," one notes that the names De la VIGNE and CUVELIER (the latter the French equivalent of the Dutch CUVILJE) frequently occur in the index of victims of the Spanish Inq uisition. Surviving relatives likely fled religious persecution to tolerant Holland. There, a Jean de la VIGNE served as Amsterdam's Walloon dominie from 1585 to 1622; and there, in 1613 or earlier, a Guillaume de la VIGNE and Adrienne CUVELIER ev idently found employment in expanding Dutch Commerce, and their names became Dutchified.
