Michael and other Huguenots,

The Central Bureau of Genealogie in The Hague, Netherlands is the dutch authority for collecting and preserving genealogies and heraldry. The website is CBG.nl A very good source of Huguenot information, hopefully you can read dutch which I cannot.

The following "de la Bricque" photo can be obtained over the internet for about 7 euros.
De la Bricque
Wapen: in groen drie zilveren kraanvogels.

Wapenvoerder: De la Bricque
Een van de acht kwartierwapens van het wapen van Pieter Corswarem.

Bron 1:
CBG, GHS 50A34, J.M. de Lange. Wapenboeck, familiewapens, rouwborden en grafschriften, ca. 1717, blz. 1756, 1758.
Afbeelding: Bricque01

Here the picture is of a green shield. It could be a faded blue and appear green. Green could be incorrect, or Blue could be incorrect.
We now have a probable source for page I posted being a Family Arms book by J M Lange made around 1717. The page displays the family genealogy of Pieter Corswaren.

Also at the CBG is the famous MUSCHART heraldry collection which is on microfilm. A very rich source of information if known how to be used even by Hugenouts. There is a second and different Muschart collection at the Bureau of Heraldry in South Africa which may contain additional information.

Muschart contains the following variants which may be of interest on Bricque research. You have to photocopy in person at the archives, on the internet it only gives film code and partial arms description in dutch. Muschart usually writes down the source of where he saw the arms and who it belonged to.

Codering(en) volgens Muschart bij de naam Brichan
69H: Meer dan een korenschoof

Codering(en) volgens Muschart bij de naam Brichanteau, de
46H: Meer dan drie bollen

Codering(en) volgens Muschart bij de naam Bricheau
66I: Een boom
82O: Twee pijlen, vergezeld

You may also find info in family documents at CBG under "Brik", "de Brichy", "Brico", and "Bricho"

Family

Page 48 of unknown Codex sold at auction in England several years ago and broken with each page sold separetly. The back of page 47 (of at least 110 in this volume) would have the genealogical information of this family. I have never seen 47. I have been able to confirm genealogies on several of these pages 1500-1700's. Watermarks on paper prove 200+ years old and high quality, however due to technique I think this was custom copy of unknown works in late 1800"s. I am not sure if I did this one yet, if I did it is Ancestry.com. If you need me to do it, it will take me a day to complete.

Armando, is this a family or a town in France, Belgium or the Netherlands? Thanks for finding it I had not seen it before.

Michael Helmantoler,
Is Dela Bricque a variant of what you are looking for?

Rosemary J Taylor,
I am very interested in your van Salee/Sallee research. I tried looking at the geocities website but it is no longer there.

You may be interested in similar storie in Sol and Soule groups which I hope you join.


I have been researching van Soldt/Solt/Sold family for a short while. The variants that the family has been recorded under are Vansold, Vansolt, Vansoldt, Vansalt, van Salt, de Solt, du Solt, de Soule, van Soule, van Soult, Vansoulte, Sold, Vold, de Sol, van Solle

I was researching Abraham van Soldt who came to Virginia colony in 1630's from London, had a daughter Rose who married a Joseph Mason.

Journey and Bibb.

On the van Salee I posted. This link does not mention that others believe Van Salee's father was a Frenchman who fled France to Holland and joined the Dutch Navy. He left a wife and children in Holland, became a pirate off north Africa, and had wives and children there. I research Sallee, of Manakintown, VA, but he appears not to have immigrated at the same time as the others.
