"Despite years of tradition that he was the son or grandson of Count Nicholas Bouton, a French Huguenot, there is no evidence to support such a relationship."

Found this on Schohaire County, NYGen Web Site:

'according to a French genealogy of 1733...Jean Bernard Bouton, brother of Noel and Harard died at Severne after the second battle of Norlingen in 1645." If this is true and I have no reason to doubt the information it clears the way for establishing that John Bowton who left England for Virginia aboard the Assurance in July of 1635 was indeed English. The spelling of his name on the ship manifest would reflect this whereas some how here on the North American continent the spelling was changed to Bouton most likely after his death. I will make another posting that will propose that John Bowton is most likely the John Bowton christened at Kempston, Bedofrdshire on December 15, 1616.

"In his l900 Marvin Genealogy, W.T.R. Marvin debunked James Boughton's claim in his l890 "Bouton-Boughton Family" that the Norwalk Boutons were of Huguenot descent."
