In 1686, the Proprietors of the Narragansett country in Rhode Island made an agreement with some French Protestant emigrants for the settlement of a plantation on their territory. This work consists of genealogical data on the band of French emigrants who settled the "Frenchtown" plantation, featuring genealogical and biographical notices on the following families, most of whom were of Huguenot origin: Allen, Ayrault, Bernon, Bowen, Carpenter, Crawford, Ganeaux, Ginnaldo, Helme, Jerauld, Lucas, Marchant, Mawney, Targe, and Tourtellot.
