NOTEs

1. A large family descended from John Fransoy, a French protestant (Huguenot) born about 1660 in France, who fled north to the Netherlands to escape religious persecution. He married a Dutch woman, Elizabeth Geitje, either in the Netherlands or in New Jersey. In the Netherlands and in the Dutch community of Second River, New Jersey, he was known as Johannis Franse, which means "John French" in Dutch. Later the name was written as Francisco or Fran Sisco. He is supposed to have had at least five sons, Henry, Frans, Johannis, Abraham, and Barent. Many of the descendants of Barent in New Jersey shortened the name to "Sisco", whereas the descendants of Henry in New York and points west often kept the full name of "Francisco".

A southern branch of this family is descended from a John Francisco who moved to North Carolina about 1750. The southern branch uses the shortened "Sisco" or "Cisco" versions of the name.

Men of this lineage have the R1b-DF27 Y chromosome haplotype, the so-called "Gascon-Iberian" haplotype, which is most common among men in the Atlantic Coast region of southwestern France and northern Spain. For a discussion see http://www.eupedia.com/europe/Haplogroup_R1b_Y-DNA.shtml#DF27
