Pub. 1910

Daniel Lammot's (1782-1877)... grandfather, Jean Henri de la Motte, a Huguenot,
was born in Paris in 1720, in the troublous times of little King Louis XV and he gladly fled to Switzerland, taking final refuge in America. Escaping religious persecution abroad he was also driven temporarily from his Maryland home by the hostile redskins. He resolutely clung to the new world and refused an offer of adoption for one of his four sons from his brother, General Nicholas de la Motte, who was here with the fleet of d'Estaing in our Revolutionary War.

Daniel, bom in 1753, son of Jean Henri, lived in Baltimore, where he discovered the New Church. His son, Daniel 2d, in endeavoring to convince his father of the "error of his ways," became himself converted and commenced laboring for the Church under Rev, John Hargrove in 1802." (Pgs 32-33)
