Dear Genealogy Friend,
I have for many years been doing research into the origin and genealogy of my great-grandfather, Jean Baptiste HOUZET, of Tournai, who emigrated to South Africa in 1857 after the Crimean War.
I think I have at last discovered the birthplace and also the likely identity of the father of my great-grandfather Jean Baptiste Houzet who emigrated to South Africa at the close of the Crimean War in 1857 after enlisting with the British-German Legion on the island of Helgoland [just off Hamburg, Germany] in August 1855.
It appears that Jean Baptiste (Junior) was almost certainly born at Rue du Cygne 13, Saint Jacques, Tournai, Belgique:
In the attached photograph this seems to be the narrow white building [no doubt renovated in recent years] on the left from where his father, Jean Baptiste Joseph Houzet, ran a pawnshop before moving to Rue Blandinoise No. 3, nearby.
The following bits of information has been extracted from genealogical records in Belgium and I was wondering whether you have some connection with these surnames as I understand from Geneanet that the name BRUYENNE features in your family tree?
