About Peter Du Cane, the elder

Peter Du Cane (alias Du Quesne) (17 March 1645 – 16 September 1714), a descendant of Jean Du Quesne, the elder and son of Pierre du Quesne and Jeanne Maurois, was a third generation English-born descendant in a family of prominent and noble Huguenot refugees who escaped from Flanders and originally settled in Canterbury in the reign of Elizabeth I, following the persecutions carried on in the low countries under the Duke of Alba. The second generation of the family settled in London and acquired citizenship (see Jean Du Quesne, the younger). Peter Du Cane became an Alderman of the City of London (1666) and an elder of the French Protestant Church in Threadneedle Street.
