THE ISAAC DUBOSC FAMILY OF SOUTH CAROLINA
by Mrs. Leola W. Konopa
The family of Isaac DuBosc is found among the earliest families in the Province of Carolina. Isaac DuBosc came to Charles Towne ca. 1685/87 and settled along the Santee River.
The "List of French and Swiss Refugees in the Province of Carolina who wished to be Naturalized English" was prepared 1695/96 and included Isaac DuBosc, son of Louis DuBosc, and Anne DuBosc, of Dieppe in Normandy, France; Suzanne DuBosc, his wife, daughter of Pierre and Susanne Couillandeau, native of "La Tramblade" in Xaintonge. The mother of Suzanne DuBosc was Marie (not Susanne) Fougeraut Coullandeau, who married 2nd Moise Brigaud and who sold Lot #90 in Charles Towne that she had purchased in 1688 from Henry Hughes. This was in the Plat and Draught of the said Charles Towne. Henry Hughes was granted the lot in 1680. This would have been the original Draught of Charles Towne. In the deed she refers to her daughter Suzanne Dubose and her son-in-law Isaac Dubose. On this document, Isaac Dubose signed his name as "--Dubos".
"The Royal Land Grants" books in the Dept. of Archives, Columbia, S.C., show Grants of land for Isaac DuBosek, Dubose etc. and also for Isaac (2nd), Andrew, Daniel, John, Peter, Stephen, Joseph, Samuel, Benjamin, William, and many others. The name is spelled different ways and the Dubose family had many grants and plats.
Isaac Dubose, the emigrant, made a Will dated 6-19-1714 which cannot now be located but is referred to in a Document of his widow in 1733 in Memorial Vol. 8, p. 245, Archives, Columbia, S.C.

One other source has given 16 Feb 1661 as his birth date.
Emigration:
Isaac DuBosc apparently was in London in 1682 when presented a temoignage to the Threadneedle Street Huguenot Church and Moyse Brigaud, step-father to Suzanne Couillandeau was in London in 1683 when he asked for financial assistance. Ann, widow of Richard LeGrand, gave testimony to the Threadneedle Street Church for Isaac instead of his grandmother, witness Mr. Faucon (Abraham Faulcon, former minister of Fe-camp near Dieppe. (Source-Denis Vatinel, former Conservator, Society of History of Protestantism French, current address 54 Rue des Saints-Peres 75007 Paris, and Michael Gandy, Research Officer, the Huguenot Society of Great Britain, from the records of Threadneedle Street Church published by the above society).
Isaac DuBosc emigrated to South Carolina and settled in Jamestown on the Santee River ca. 1690. Isaac was one of the founders of Jamestown, S.C., having purchased lot no. 12 in 1705. Isaac & Susanne DuBose were naturalized in 1689. (DuBose Genealogy by Dorothy K MacDowell).

The French Church in Threadneedle St., founded in 1550, was a Huguenot congregation. Following is taken loosely from History Today, Volume 43, Issue 5 | May 1993 | Author: Bakshian, Aram
Soho’s French Connection
…A central London Protestant community … stemming from the emigration of French and Flemish Protestants to England in the sixteenth century. The main place of worship was in Threadneedle Street in the City of London. Founded in 1550, when Edward VI granted Protestant refugees freedom of worship by royal charter, what had previously been St Anthony’s Hospital Chapel, became known as the French Church. The medieval building which dated back to the thirteenth century was destroyed in the Great Fire of London, but by 1669 the hardworking Huguenots had erected a new church, one of the first to be rebuilt after the fire. It was demolished in 1841 to make way for the Royal Exchange.
Edward VI’s charter required the names of all pasteurs to be submitted to the sovereign for approbation and the tradition continues with the French Pasteur being the only foreign minister to be appointed by Her Majesty the Queen.
After the revocation of the Edict of Nantes by Louis XIV in 1685 there was a large immigration of French Protestants to England. In 1700 something in the region of 5 per cent of London’s population were Huguenots, who brought with them a wealth of trade secrets and in some cases financial capital also. The Huguenots contributed overwhelmingly to the development of the textile, gun-making, silver, watch and clock-making industries, to the creation of the banking and insurance business as well as to the sciences and the arts.
Immigration:
About 500 years ago in France, during the Protestant Reformation, a growing group of independent clergy, scholars and laymen believed that spiritual seekers should interpret the gospel for themselves. Salvation, they said, came not from doctrine or works, but from faith alone.
These French Protestants became known as Huguenots. What began as a religious debate became a story of war, persecution and exile as the Huguenots challenged both the monarchy and the Roman Catholic Church for the right to worship as they chose. In 1685, by order of the French king, these religionnaires were forbidden to leave France and ordered to convert. If they refused, men were condemned to the galleys, women were imprisoned and children were taken from their families.
Rather than forsake their faith, many Huguenots left their homes, families, jobs and the life they knew in search of a place where they could worship and live freely. They endured a treacherous journey across the Atlantic and arrived seeking freedom in an unknown country whose language they did not speak. They had to begin again, suffering through illness, famine, poverty and discrimination.
Over time, they built new lives. They gained the right to vote, sought representation in government and played vital roles in the shaping of their new home and country. Many of the Huguenots and their descendants are some of the most influential people in American history.
Their independent spirit and determination in the face of persecution is as inspiring today as it was the day their first ship arrived. The Huguenot Society of South Carolina celebrates their courage by preserving and sharing their story with their descendants and the world. We honor their commitment to family by maintaining records of their lineage to share with their extended families. We carry on the Huguenot’s legacy because we believe to know who you are, you need to know who you were.
Isaac married Couillandeau, Susanne in CA 1688. Susanne (daughter of Couillandeau, Pierre Sr. and Fougeraut, Marie (Mary)) was born in 1668 in La Tremblade, Saintonge, France; died before 12 Jun 1742 in St. James Parish, Santee, Charleston County, South Carolina; was buried in St. James Parish, Santee, Charleston County, South Carolina.
