(2) Note by compiler: According to the Ancestral File, Pierre was born in Poitou, France. Following is information regarding Poitou from Encyclopædia Brittanica, 2010, © 2010 Encyclopædia Brittanica, Inc.: Poitou, historical and cultural region of west-central France, encompassing the d??partements of Vend??e, Deux-S??vres, and Vienne and coextensive with the former province of Poitou. Poitou derives its name from the Gallic tribe of Pictones, or Pictavi, whose civitas, or community, formed part of Roman Aquitania. For centuries the northern part of Aquitaine, Poitou was a border country and the site of such battles as that of Vouill?? in 507, Charles Martel's victory over the Muslims in 732, the Anglo-French Battle of Poitiers in 1356, and the Battle of Moncontour in 1569. After 778 it formed part of the domain of the counts of Poitiers. The region was traditionally a meeting place of northern and southern cultures. Its golden age (11th-12th century) is represented by a great school of Romanesque architecture, sculpture, and painting. The counts of Poitiers (who also held the title duke of Aquitaine from the mid-10th century) were succeeded by the Angevin kings of England in the 12th century, but Philip II Augustus and Louis VIII of France reconquered the country early in the 13th century. Poitou was ceded to the English monarchy by the treaties of Br??tigny and Calais (1360), but by 1375 the French had won it back. Poitou suffered in the Wars of Religion; its later history was quieter, apart from the Wars of the Vend??e in the Revolutionary period. Physiographically, Poitou consists of two smaller regions, Haut (High) Poitou at the southern end of the Massif Armoricain and Bas (Low) Poitou about the periphery. The Vend??e is a northern section of the region. Small farms predominate in the north; the population tends to be dispersed. The rural population in the south tends to cluster in small villages surrounded by open fields. The bourrine is the traditional farmstead of Vend??e and consists of one story roofed with thatch; the exterior is lime-washed. The Gate of Poitou, a zone of sedimentary rocks about 50 miles (80 km) wide between two higher countries of older rocks (Limousin and the southern part of the Armoricain Massif), forms the easiest passage between northern and southwestern France. There are large Protestant enclaves in Vienne around Loudun and Ch??tellerault and in villages around Niort. Vend??e is predominantly Roman Catholic, though there are sizable Protestant communities in Chantonnay and Pouzauges. The Petite ??glise ("Little Church") outside Courlay in Deux-S??vres rejected the Concordat of 1801 and functions without a priest. Regional cuisine features mussels cooked in cream or marinated in white wine, escargots prepared in wine, and a soup of fish and white wine.

He married Margaret Clark of London in 1659. He first settled on Staten Island and later moved to Elizabethtown, where he was an Associate in 1695. He died in 1709. His son John was a resident of Middlesex County in 1694.

  Family	Marguerite or Margaret du MONT,   b. 1633
  Marriage	24 Jul 1660	French Reformed Church, Mannheim, Germany
  Notes	(1) Bruce Noe posted the following message to the Noe Mailing List on October 9, 1997: Today I had the pleasure of going through the original marriage and birth books of the French Reformed Church of Mannheim, which are now located in the Evangelical Church Archives in Karlsruhe, Germany. . . . It is interesting to note the changes in spelling of the Noe name, even when the same pastor or clerk made the entries. I have transcribed the text as closely as possible using a Windows ASCII character set, including the spellings which are not consistent with modern French. The translation is a very literal one, where I have used the English present perfect for the French pass?? compos??. Normally in English we would use the past definite in these cases. . . . Original text: Pi??rre Nu??s Jeune homme natif de Rongi au pa??s bas et Margueritte du Mont jeune fille native pr??s d?Ipres ont ??t?? mari??s en cette Eglise le 24 Juillet 1660. Translation into English: Pi??rre Nu??s, young man native of Rongi in the low countries [Netherlands], and Margueritte du Mont, young woman native near to Ipres, have been married in this church the 24th of July 1660. [Note by compiler: Pi??rre's surname is spelled in the following ways in the marriage and birth books of the French Reformed Church of Mannheim: Nu??s, Nu??, No??, and Nu??e.]
