Notities over Jean Postell

The Postell family is descended from the French Huguenot Jean Postell and his wife Madeleine Pepin who arrived in South Carolina during the latter part of the seventeenth century. The Reverend Dr. Robert Wilson was of the opinion that their arrival was as early as 1679; Frederick Dalcho gave the date as 1693, while A. S. Salley placed it prior to 1697. Whatever the date, among the French and Swiss refugees who applied for naturalization in 1697 were Jean Postell, his wife Madeleine Pepin, his mother, Marye Brugnet, widow of Nicholas Postell [Potell] of Dieppe, France, and his four children, Jean, Pierre, Jacques and Jean, Jr. The St. Julien list refers to the Postells as residents of Santee.
(1) A. H. Hirsch states that the family of Jean Postell was one of the prominent French families of Goose Creek.
(2) Wherever they first settled, on May 15, 1694, Postell received a warrant for lots number 177 and 178 on Broad Street within the walls of Charleston.
(3) Also on January 17, 1710/11 Jean Postell [Pottell] received a warrant for 600 acres in Berkeley County.
(4) This apparently met the concession of 50 acres for each member of the family. Postell was a man of means when he died in 1729, as attested by the records of the Probate Court, Charleston
.(5) St. Philip's Parish Register, 1720-1758 (p. 235) entered October 16, 1729, "Then was buried John Postel." To identify the sons of Jean Postell, the immigrant, Dr. Wilson refers to them as John (Jean) of Berkeley, James (Jacques) of Berkeley, and John (Jean), Jr. Pierre, the second son, died without issue.
