The Hidden Thread: Huguenot Families In Australia
Biography & Memoir History Australiana
The Hidden Thread by Robert Nash traces the journeys of Huguenot families who fled persecution in France and wove their resilience into Australia’s colonial fabric. This 2010 paperback from the Huguenot Society of Australia Inc brings together genealogy, biography and Australian history in one accessible volume.
Across 262 pages, Nash guides readers through passenger lists, parish registers and personal letters, showing how refugee artisans, vignerons and merchants helped shape early Sydney, Adelaide and Melbourne. Family historians will appreciate the detailed surname index and migration maps that make tracing Huguenot ancestry straightforward.
The book is in very good condition: crisp pages, no writing or dog-ears, and a firm binding. A light bump at the top spine edge is the only sign of its previous life on a quiet shelf. Ideal for collectors of Australian or Huguenot memorabilia, young adults exploring their roots, or anyone curious about the hidden threads of multicultural Australia.
