Don't Shoot the Messenger but we no longer have a direct SA duPlessis connection to Charlemagne :-(

Hi Sharon,
As explained earlier I will have to go back and scan from my book. All my sources where put on Geni but disapread years ago.☺
Juds

Great Judi. It would be really good to have them. And really great if it gets the link to Charlemagne back.

Remember, though, that last time we spoke, we found your profiles still intact - just on the cousin François du Plessis Richelieu, Lord of Richelieu, Neuville, Beçay, Vervolière & le Petitline's line.
They were still all there back to CHarlemagne, but just not on a direct line to the SA duPlessis.

You spoke about the Coertzen version - can you give it to us?

my line still is intact!

Peter is it the new SA duPLessis line to Charlemagne showing through the Mornay line that we were researching.
I wonder if it's well sourced enough to hold?

Jean Prieur du Plessis, SV/PROG is Charlemagne's 21st great grandson.

Sharon Coetzee's version is a book. I have to scan. But I will get it out today and get the line. It is laid out perfectly.
Juds

You're a star. Here's holding thumbs :-)

Hi Sharon. I e-mailed you two attachmentss. Hope you canmake something out of it.
The book is going way back and are far over 1000 pages.
Juds

Die PLESSIS-RICHELIEU geslag begin op bl. 939 en die inligting is ook verkry uit du Chesne se boek wat ons reeds breedvoerig behandel het.
Die opeenvolging van vader na seun begin by
1. Guillaume du Plessis 1 en volg dan die direkte lyn soos reeds deur ons
verskaf
2. Pierre du Plessis 1
3. Guillaume du Plessis 11
4. Pierre du Plessis 11
5. Guillaume du Plessis 111
6. Pierre du Plessis 111
7. Jean du Plessis
8. Mandè du Plessis
9. Sauvage (Silvester) du Plessis
10. François du Plessis 1
11. François du Plessis 11.
By laasgenoemde word ook vermeld dat hy getroud was met Française de
Cherge (Charge), die dogter van Joachim de Cherge en Marguerite Boisléve, ‘n huwelik wat soos reeds gemeld op 22 Maart 1541 plaasgevind het. Ook word vermeld dat daar verskeie kinders was en die minderjariges is in 1556 onder die voogdyskap van Joachim de Grailly geplaas. Die name van die kinders word egter nie verskaf nie. (Marguerite Boisléve of Boislescue volgens du Chesne). Dit bring ons dan weer by Amalia du Plesis se navorsing wat reeds gemeld is (bl. ) en die daaropvolgende geslagte
12 Jean du Plessls 11 gebore 1548,oorlede 1640
13. Charl du Plessis gebore 1600.
14. Jean Prieur du Plessis stamvader in Suid-Afrika, gebore 1638 in Poitiers en
oorlede 1708 in Suid Afrika.

Die verwante vertakking van Cardinaal Richelieu begin op bladsy 944 met Nommer 6 SAUVAGE du Plessis, broer van Pierre No. 6 hierbo, tot by Armand Jean du Plesis (Kardinaal Richelieu) die 3de kind van nommer 11 François du Plessis.

Juds, I'm going to answer in English in case my Afrikaans confuses the specifics of what I'm saying. You reply in Afrikaans.

Have a look at the Project - It agrees exactly with the Coetzee line shown above:

a.Guillaume I, Seigneur du Plessis, des Breux et de La Vervolière um 1200

b1.Pierre I Seigneur du Plessis etc

b1c1. Guillaume II Seigneur du Plessis etc

The problem is that none of these people have a direct line back to Charlemagne.

Coetzee says "Die verwante vertakking van Cardinaal Richelieu begin op bladsy 944 met Nommer 6 SAUVAGE du Plessis, broer van Pierre No. 6 hierbo, tot by Armand Jean du Plesis (Kardinaal Richelieu) die 3de kind van nommer 11 François du Plessis"

The project line agrees exactly with this as well:
a.Guillaume I, Seigneur du Plessis, des Breux et de La Vervolière um 1200

b1.Pierre I Seigneur du Plessis etc

b1c1. Guillaume II Seigneur du Plessis etc

b1c1d1. Pierre II, Seigneur du Plessis etc. † um 1331

September 1631, für Fronsac 5. Juli 1634)

So, everything on the project agrees with what Coetzee says in the extracts you've sent me.
I don't know if Coetzee says elsewhere that the SA duPLessis goes DIRECTLY back to Charlemagne, but that requires

f1g1h2i1j1 j1k1 François du Plessis Richelieu, Lord of Richelieu, Neuville, Beçay, Vervolière & le Petit c 1510 - †1560 ∞ Françoise de Charge, daughter of Joachim de Chergé, Seigneur de Buxeil & Marguerite de Boisleve (the SA ancestor)

to be the same man as:
f2g2.h1.i1.j4.k2. François III du Plessis, seigneur de Richelieu † 10. Juli 1590; ∞ Susanne, Tochter von François, Seigneur du Boissier (Haus La Porte) (Cardinal Richelieu's father)

But they are obviously not the same man, and only Cardinal Richelieu's father (f2g2.h1.i1.j4.k2. François III du Plessis d1590) has a direct line back to Charlemagne, not the SA line.

Hi Sharon ou nig,
As soon as all messes have been sorted out I will go on there.
I do know there were even one that was with a Farao.☺
But as said, lots of reading first.
Will e-mail you more later.
I will specifically look for those names. Maybe in the index. Hold thumbs.

:-) I don't think these profiles are messed up?

Hi Sharon, Judith. Ek volg hierdie gesprek met groot belangstelling. Verstaan ek die nuutste inligting korrek:
- lyk of die SA du Plessis wel van 'n "De Richelieu' afstam maar nie nie vanaf "Charlemagne" nie
- Dan wil ek graag weet of die "tree" soos gebubliseer opgedateer is.
- Ek is ook baie geinteresseer in die 1e Du Plessis. die huidige stamboom waar ek aan gekoppel is gaan terug na Tor de Belvior, is hierdie inligting betroubaar?
jammer vir die klomp vrae

Hi marthinus en Sharon. Die boek wat ek gebruik en as die beste navorsing terug tot baie ver in die verlede kan hier bestel word in CD formaat.

Marthinus, I've sent you an invite to the duPlessis Family Project where we've spent weeks and weeks over the past couple of years untangling the erroneous line via Cardinal deRichelieu to Charlemagne that was on GEni.
(Only afterwards did we hear that it had been well-known as an SA fraud in genealogical circles, and we actually hadn't proved a lot that was new:-) Judi, you may have forgotten that you were part of that.

The bulk of the research work - if I recall correctly - is in this Discussion:
http://www.geni.com/discussions/108521?msg=795093&page=1

A lot of the work was done by Private User, Nicola Bensimon, Private User, Private User, Alma Lubbe and myself.

Also involved were: Private User, Maria Magdalena (Marietjie) Pienaar du Plessis, Private User, Private User and others I'm sure I've left out - it was a while ago.

The upshot is that the result wasn't ambiguous. The data had clearly been fudged. (Not surprising - since Cardinal de Richelieu was a leading persecutor of Huguenots)

Judi, if there is info on that source that suggests otherwise, please post it and I promise we'll start looking at this again. The aim is accuracy, not being right.

Marthinus, give me a minute to translate into Afrikaans.

Marthinus. Skies my Afrikaans.
Ek het jou uitgenooi by die du PLessis FAmilie Projek http://www.geni.com/projects/Family-Familie-du-Plessis/10778

= Dan wil ek graag weet of die "tree" soos gebubliseer opgedateer is.= Dit is 'n goeie vraag. Ek weet nie.

=terug na Tor de Belvior, is hierdie inligting betroubaar?= Miskien is dit tyd vir nog 'n Navorsing Mob? Wil jy dit lei? Ek is daar :-)

Sharon ek het biki te min tyd op die oomblik. Iets wat ek wel dink na gekyk kan word is na du plessis in brittanje bv die earl of warwick ens. Dit lyk of hulle link na ons geslagslyn in frankryk. Ek wonder egter oor die Belvoir oorsprong van Tor wat in Brittanje is maar heelwat vroeer as warwick. Weet nie of iemand al hierna gekyk het nie?
Marinus
I really dont mind following the discussion in English

Marthinus - ek probeer om my Afrikaans te verbeter:-)
Post die skakels vir die profiele hier.
Selfs as ons net 'n Bespreking van elkeen van hulle begin - met areas wat nagevors moet word: Ons kan altyd terug gaan wanneer ons meer tyd het.
