origin of Auchamps/aucamp/aukamp
My name is Carel Aucamp and I am the 9th generation Aucamp living in South Africa.
My forefather was Captain Armand Emille Auchamps (b. 1660) who fled as a Huguenot from Verdun, France, to Raden in Germany. His wife was Marion Celeste de Beausobre (b. 1762 in Mort Poitou, Limousin, France)
His son, Jean Déderique Auchamps (b. 1710), came to South Africa in 1727 and soon spelled his own name Jan Diederik Aucamp
I have been to Verdun to search for traces of the surname in France, but to no avail. I have however a lot of information on the Aucamp in South Africa if anyone should be interested
Hoping to hear from thye Aukamps!
Carel Aucamp
