Josias DuPre had Grant of 730 A., 18 Sept 1703.Benjamin Simons had Grant of 350 A., 5 May 1704. (See DuPre - Simansconnection later). - Many of these (others mentioned in a list given)were in the Province and were residents in the Orange Quarter before theapparent dates of their warrants. They seem to have gone into possessionunder some Authority, leave, or agreement, prior to receiving warrantsand grants. They all seem to have settled there after 1685 and before1711 and if the date of settlement was the date of arrival then theycould none have been the immigrants brought over by the "Richmond". (TheRichmond vessel arrived in 1680
(9) TRANSACTIONS OF THE HUGUENOT SOCIETY OF SOUTH CAROLINA, Vol. 54(1949). Exports From Charles Town, 1690, by St. Julien Ravenel Childs.p. 30. In 1690, when this consignment was shipped out of Charles town, the
fortunes of South Carolina were at low ebb. Twenty years had elapsed since
the beginning of settlement, but agriculture had made little progress, no
staple had been found, and immigration from other parts of the Britishdominions
had all but ceased. The colony depended largely on imports for such bare
necessities as clothing, tools, weapons, drugs, and even many articles ofdiet,
yet had little to export except products of the forest and the Indiantrade.
Under such conditions, Du Pre's consignment appears almost incredible.The conclusion that these goods had been produced in Europe seemsirresistible, but
what merchant in his senses would have brought them into Carolina?Josias Du Pre came to South Carolina in 1686, bringing at least onemanservant and probably a numerous family. That was the year followingthe Revocation of the Edict of Nantes. Almost the only immigrants to theProvince were Huguenots, but they arrived in large numbers. It seemsbeyond doubt that Du Pre' was of this group. In 1687, he was groomsman ata Huguenot wedding in the district later known as the French or OrangeQuarter, and there he eventually took up the land to which his headrightsentitled him. In 1697, "Josias Dupree sen, mercht, Josias Dupree jr.shipwright, Cornelius Dupre planter", were among the foreign Protestantsnaturalized by the South Carolina Assembly. However, as no Du Pre is onthe St. Julien List of Huguenot congregations in South Carolina about1696, it is probable that the family affiliated early with the: AnglicanChurch or one of the English dissenting sects.
Unfortunately nothing is known of Du Pre prior to his arrival here.Presumably, he brought sufficient stock to set up trade or, moreprobably, to continue from a new base part of the trading in which he hadpreviously engaged.
Merchants were in a better position than most Huguenots to get theirproperty out of France. Du Pre could have brought the goods in theconsignment with him, but it would seem a curious selection if he had anyopportunity to choose.Another possibility is that he may have acquired sane of the items frombuccaneers, then common visitors to Charles Town. Only two years later, a"privateer" came in with a rich haul from a Turkish ship taken in the RedSea. Many of the crew settled in South Carolina, laying the foundationsof several family fortunes. One, Francis Blanchard, promptly marriedMartha Du Pre, who was probably daughter to Josias.
Taken as a whole, however, the consignment lacks the flavor of pirateloot, and a third explanation seems the most probable. If Du Pre reachedthis country with a sufficiency of worldly goods, few of his fellowexiles were so fortunate. Many arrived with little but their lives, butthey still possessed skills that had made them famous in Europe. Therecan be no doubt that among them were craftsman capable of producing justsuch commodities as appear in this consignment. There is nothingunreasonable in supposing; that they did so, particularly in the firstgrim years while they were seeking ways of earning their bread amongstrangers in a half savage land. Charles Town would have offered littlemarket for their wares, but a shrewd merchant among their own people,especially one who had associated himself with the English, might havefound ways to send their products to sane older and richer colony whereluxuries were more in demand. Such a supposition fits well with what isalready known of these people, and with the aid of this hypothesis, theconsignment seems to afford a clearer picture of the exiles and thequalities that enabled them to survive.
