Historical Article Excerpt

The Batteys descended in part from the Protestant branch of the Barbot family of France which immigrated to New York.

The first of the Barbots to come to the South was Jean Antoine Barbot (1785-1855), who settled in Charleston.

Jean Antoine de Rimeau Barbot (1785-1855) came to Charleston, S.C. some years after watching his father's beheading in the French Revolution and his mother's subsequent heart attack and death upon witnessing the execution of her husband.

In Charleston, he married Caesarine Francoise Antoinette Esnard (1800-1880) and fathered 14 children. Some of the family eventually settled in Augusta, Ga. ^[13][14][15]
