  [S631] The Eno Family-New York Branch, Henry Lane Eno, (Date: 1920;). The first of the name of whom we have authen- tic record was Collard Henno, of Mons (the cap- ital of the ancient county of Hainault), whose presence at the reception of Burghers, in Valen- ciennes, is given in the Registry of Burghers of that city under the date of February 7, 1463. The immediate ancestor of the American family was, however, his great-grandson, Jacques Henno, who was lieutenant of the guard formed by the Huguenot citizens of Valenciennes to re- sist the Spaniards ; and who, after the capture of the town, fled to England, toward the end of the 16th century. 1 Records of Threadneedle Street church, published by the Huguenot Society of London ; and extracts from docu- ments relating to the Huguenot immigration of the 16th and 17th centuries in the British Museum. 2 Jacques Hennot, late lieutenant of the military guard of Valenciennes, surrendered twice at Tournai, the first time with Guy de Bres (the celebrated Huguenot preacher. executed there in 1567), the second time after the death of the latter. He was then taken under guard toward Lisle, but escaped through the intervention of a band of Huguenot horsemen, after which escape all trace of him was lost by the authorities. He was pursued by order of Theodore Cresia, commandant of the Italian Cavalry (under the Duke of Alva), who gave instructions to capture the Page Seven With him, at the time, was his son, Jean Henno, who afterward married Catherine Jone, and whose son (the grandson of Lieutenant Jacques Henno), Jacques 2 [or James] Henno, 3d, emigrated to America in 1648, and settled at Windsor, Connecticut. body of Jacques Hennot wherever he might be found, prom- ising an honorable sum to any one who should deliver him dead, or a double amount if the said Hennot should be de- livered alive. ("Confiscations et ordonnances concernant les troubles survenus a la fin du VXI Siecle) — Royal Archives Brussels), where, also, is found the decree con- fiscating all the lands and goods of said Jacques Hennot, and branding him as an outlaw. The next trace of him is in the documents of the British Museum relating to the religious wars of Flanders. There among the names of the refugees is found that of Jacques Hennot, late lieutenant of the military guard at Valenciennes. This Jaques Hennot settled in an English Province; his son John, however, repaired to London, where we find the record in the archives of the Threadneedle Street church of the baptism of James Hennot, son of John Hennot, on August 21, 1625. This last-named James Hennot is inscribed in the Historical Record of the British Museum as having left London for North America in 1648. "Archives Threadneedle Street Church," vol. ii., 1576-1624.
