"Taken from the DeVoe Family Bible: The forefathers of the DeVoe family in America were French Protestants (Huguenots ) The forefather of this branch of the family is Frederick De Veaux born ca 1675 in the Provence of Annis ,France. When a boy of 12-14 he with his parents and 2 brothers left home in France to escape the persecutions of the authorities after much suffering, arrived in Manheim, Germany. Here Frederick grew to manhood, entered into trade married about 1673 his wife who died soon afterward leaving no issue. He closed up his business and after obtaining the necessary passport, in 1675 took passage to England, and then from there to NY settling in Harlem, where on June 24, 1677 appears in the Dutch church records in his marriage to Hester, Dau of Daniel Terneur of Harlem, by this marriage he came into posession of a large tract of land known as the Cromwell farm in Morrisania, Bronx. In 1694 he purchased the neck of land known as Devoes Point. His children by his second wife were; Rachel b 1678 married Johannes Dyckman, and settled in Hackensack, NJ . Jacob, a twin of Rachel, died young . Susannah ( Susan in the family bible) born 1682 married Andrew Naudain ( Nodone) who died at age 102 in New Rochelle, NY. Frederick J b 1684 died 1753 married 1st in NY) Hestor Dy(c)kman. 2nd) Mary Odell. His father deeded him the Cromwell farm in Morrisania, Westchester County,where he lived all his life; His decendants settled in Westchester and Ulster Counties and many served in the Revolution."
"Taken from: The De Veaux Family by Thos. F. De Voe, 1885: Frederick De Veaux (our Forefather) was born about the year 1645 in the province of Annis (said to be near Rochelle), in France. When a boy of 12 or 14 years of age he, with his parents and two brothers, at least, set out from their home to escape the various inflictions put upon them by the authorities, and, after much difficulty and suffering, they arrived at Manheim, in Germany. Their absence from their home soon became known to the king's murderous troopers, who trailed them over the country, and were so close on these Huguenot refugees that it was only by the friendship of a woman that they escaped; after which they dared only to travel at night and hide in the day, and this with almost starvation among them, as they were not provided for such an emergency. The incident of their narrow escape has been handed down through the several generations of those who settled near New York, which appeared as follows: When the small party left their home they made a rapid flight for several days and nights, and supposed they had a good start unknown to the authorities; then, by travelling through the forests as opportunity offered in the daytime, and the fields and bypaths at night, they had great hopes of having eluded any troops which might have been sent after them. On one occasion, however, they had become short of food and were almost starving, but on arriving near a friendly-looking farm-house early one morning one of the party cautiously advanced toward the house, when he saw a woman come out, who became very much alarmed when she discovered him. She, however, knew by his haggard looks who and what he was, and what he wanted. She then motioned him to hide behind one of the small out-buildings in which swine were kept, when she turned back into the house and in a few minutes brought out a pan of milk and made towards the pen as if to feed her hogs, but conveyed it around to him, at the same time informing him that there were a number of the king's troopers then lying asleep on the floor of her house who, no doubt, had been on their trail. The Huguenot took the pan of milk and carried it to the others who were hid, when it was soon emptied by them. In the meantime the woman had returned with other food, gave it to them, and hurried them off in a new direction, and they safely arrived in the town of Manheim, Germany, where they found some of the earlier fugitives of the family who had escaped at various periods before. Here Frederick de Veaux grew up to manhood and became enabled to enter into trade in the town, where he married about the year 1673. His wife, however, was not long his companion; death claimed her soon after. Being without children, and having received favorable accounts from America, he made up his mind to close his business and follow his brothers and other relatives, who had been several years in this new country, and whose continued glowing accounts had also induced other relatives and friends to emigrate at various periods to this land of peace and plenty. After having obtained the necessary passport from the magistrates of Manheim, in 1675, he took passage for England, and from there came to New York, and soon after settled at Harlem, where on the 24th of June, 1677 (old style), appears in the Dutch Church records the marriage of Fredrik du Voix, widower, to 'Hester Terneur, daughter of Daniel Tourneur,' of Harlem. By this marriage he came into possession of a tract of Passport, translated into English, reads: "We, President, Mayor, Burgomaster and Council of the Electorial Pfalztown Manheim--Do make known and proclaim herewith, that the bearer of this, Frederick de Veaux, has been a citizen of this Town, and intends now to travel in Holland and then further to England: therefore We request, according to custom, to let the said Frederick de Veaux pass, free, safe and unmolested at all places, and also to insure him all good Will and help. We shall do the same in return, according to his rank, to all persons. 'In Witness hereof we have put Our customary Seal. Done Manheim, this 23d February Syl. Vet. Anno, One thousand six hundred and seventy-five. (Signed.)' The first four children of Frederick and his wife were also found recorded in the records of the Dutch Church. The first noticed were twins, born on the 1st of May, 1678, a boy, named Jacob, and a girl, named Rachel. The boy was named after his father's youngest brother Jacob. It was supposed that the boy died young; no further account of him. Esther follows, born May 8, 1680; next, Susannah, born July 1, 1682, and then appears (perhaps not in their order) Frederick, Daniel, Abel, Mary, Leah, Dinah, Joseph, Judith, and Abigal. In 1694 Frederick purchased the neck of land (afterwards known as "Devoe's Point," which connected McComb's Dam--now Central Bridge) on the east end across the Harlem River, from William Bickley, Senr., who held a patent for it, which contained 184 acres, for which Frederick agreed to pay £14, and to have three years to pay for it, as shown in the following document: 'Know all men by these presents, that I, Fredrick Duvou, of Menepis, Yeomen, sendeth greeting: Know yee I, for ye sume of fourteen pounds, to me in hand paid by William Bickley, Senior, have transported unto ye South of Spitendivell, Bought & Transported to me by sd Wm. Bickley this day, to have & to hold the said neck of Land & apurtenances unto ye sd Wm. Bickley, Senr, his heires and assigns for ever. Provided always, That in Case the sd Fredrick Duvou, my heires, Execrs or admrs Shall well & truly pay or cause to be paid to ye sd Wm. Bickley, Senr, his heires or assigns, in ye time of three years after ye date of this present, viz: four pounds tenn Shillings ye first yeare, four pounds tenn Shillings ye Second yeare & five pounds ye third yeare, being all Currant money of New Yorke, in this Citty, then this present deed and transport and every article there in Contained, is to be absolutely void and null, as iff no such deed or transport had been made, otherwise to stand in force according to law. In wittnesse where of I, ye said Fredrick Duvou, have here unto Sett my hand and Seal, In New Yorke the 25 day of June, in ye 6th yeare of their Majtes reigne, Annoy Domini 1694. Sealed and Delivered in ye presence of Jn. Barberie.--Frederck de Vaux.' 'Appeared before me, Stevanus Van Cortland, one of their Maties Justice of ye peace for ye City of New York, the above named Fredrick Deuain, & acknowledged the above writing to be his act & deed the day above written. S. V. Cortlandt.' On the back of this document was written: 'Philip Wells, Surveyor, laid out for Wm. Bickley a certain neck of Land joining upon Harlem River, beginning at a certain Spring or Run of Water to the South of Crabb Island, which is the South east Corner of the land of John Archer's, so round by the Run to a Creek to the land of Daniel Turneir, so round by-to Harlem River, then by the Harlem River to a Creek bounded north by the land of John Archer, to the east by a run of water, the west bound of Daniel Turneir; Containing 184 acres, which parcel of Land the said Wm. Bickley sold to Ffredrick Devou' (for the sum of £14). The receipts show that the money was paid according to the agreement. The attempted assassination of King William in 1698 called forth an expression in favor of the King's Christian principles, in which several hundred French Protestants of Westchester County, New York, signed against 'these heretical acts,' and among these appears the name of Fredrick Devou. In 1705 he purchased a tract of land from Col. Lewis Morris, in Morrisania, and in 1715 he took the oath of allegiance; three years after (1718) he purchased 200 acres of land in New Rochelle from his daughter, Leah Gendron, who was left a widow by the death of her husband, Peter Gendron, for which he paid £213 through Andrew Naudain, another son in-law. The next year (1719), Frederick bought the farm adjoining the last purchased in New Rochelle from Susannah Couton, 'containing one hundred acres,' for which he paid £150, and in the transfer deed his name is written Ffreadrick De Vose (long s). In the same year a receipt is found for the payment of one pound at 'Mile Square'; he signs his name Fredrick de Voue. In 1721, having lost his wife by death, Frederick Devoese, Sen., deeds to his son, Frederick Devoose, Jun., the farm or 'certain lands & meadows'--he 'was invested by his intermarriage with his wife Easter Devoose, daughter of Daniel Turneir,' on condition that after his death his son shall pay, within three years, the sum of five pounds to each of his daughters, named, and also the names of their husbands. His will, made twenty years after, shows a considerable change in his children's families, caused by death and remarriage. The two farms which Frederick, Sen., had purchased in the years 1718-19, of about 300 acres at New Rochelle, became occupied by his son Abel, where his father soon after moved, having all his children married except his youngest daughter Abigal, who perhaps resided with one of her sisters until her death, which took place before the death of her father, as her name is not noticed in his will. The introduction of the following receipt, besides being a curiosity, also introduces another change in the spelling of his name: 'January ye thirtenth 1724.--Then Received of Frederick De Voo the summ of six shillings and nine pence, which is in full of all accounts, Debts, dues and Demands, together with all Law Sutes, Cost of Law Sutes, which Ever was from ye beginnig of ye world to this Day of ye Date hearof, as witness my hand. Hendrick Slott. Witness: Clement Daniels.' In 1728 we find 'Fredrick Devoe, of ye Township of New Rochelle, yeoman, for the sum of £35,' disposes of his Bickley farm ('De Voe's point') of 184 1/2 acres of land to his son Daniel Devoe, of ye Bourough Town of Westchester. Two years after (1730) he is found boarding with his son-in-law, Andrew Naudain, at New Rochelle, with whom he resided until a few months before his death, which occurred in the month of November, 1743, at the house of his son Daniel, at Morrisania, or town of Westchester. The inventory of his money, bonds, goods, etc., after his death shows that for that period he was a man of considerable wealth, as also by his will, in which he divides up his property, giving each certain sums of money and other property, and to his grandson, John Devooise, twenty pounds, and his daughter Judith, 'Shall have my French Psalm Book,' while his 'Parcel of old French Books' are inventoried at 'one pound.' He appointed his sons Frederick and Daniel Devooise, and his friend Abraham Martling, of Westchester County, as his executors. In the division of the money to his daughters, each of which receives about £165 in cash, besides household goods, etc."

Notes: Andrew Jackson Morgrage was a volunteer soldier in the Rebellion and was a prisoner in Libby Prison at Belle Isle, for several months during the war in 1861. He was a Private in Company K, 16th Regiment ME Infantry. This was better known as The War Between The States. Richard and Madge Morgrage had several historical documents and also a register of enlistment of the 16th Regiment Company K, that hung in their den. When Madge died she donated these items to the Castine ME Museum in Castine, ME as Historical Documents. There was also a family bible donated and squad stew pots carried by Andrew as a soldier. Madge gave one small family bible to Margaret Jill Goode and (I as writer of this information) still have the family bible, and one day will pass it to my daughter Amanda Dae Frederick Harrison. In a book that I (Jill) have I have several copies of documents that were in bible donated to Castine Museum.
