THE ISAAC DUBOSC FAMILY OF SOUTH CAROLINA
by Mrs. Leola W. Konopa

     The family of Isaac DuBosc is found among the earliest families in the
Province of Carolina.  Isaac DuBosc came to Charles Towne ca. 1685/87 and
settled along the Santee River.  The "List of French and Swiss Refugees in the
Province of Carolina who wished to be Naturalized English" was prepared 1695/96
and included Isaac DuBosc, son of Louis DuBosc, and Anne DuBosc, of Dieppe in
Normandy, France; Suzanne DuBosc, his wife, daughter of Pierre and Susane
Couillandeau, native of "La Tramblade" in Xaintonge. The mother of Suzanne
DuBosc was Marie (not Susane) Fougeraut Coullandeau, who married 2nd Moise
Brigaud and who sold Lot #90 in Charles Towne that she had purchased in 1688
From Henry Hughes. This was in the Plat and Draught of the said Charles Towne. 
Henry Hughes was granted the lot in 1680.  This would have been the original
Draught of Charles Towne.  In the deed she refers to her daughter Suzanne Dubose
and her son-in-law Isaac Dubose.  On this document, Isaac Dubose signed his name
as "--Dubos".
     "The Royal Land Grants" books in the Dept. of Archives, Columbia, S.C.,
show Grants of land for Isaac DuBosek, Dubose etc. and also for Isaac (2nd),
Andrew, Daniel, John, Peter, Stephen, Joseph, Samuel, Benjamin, William, and
many others.  The name is spelled different ways and the Dubose family had many
grants and plats. 
     Isaac Dubose, the emigrant, made a Will dated 6-19-1714 which cannot now be
located but is referred to in a Document of his widow in 1733 in Memorial Vol.
