Theodore Dabney or d'Aubigne - Parents

This Hilary is a "he" and not a "she".

Thanks for the clarification. Sorry about the mistake. Should have noticed the profile silhouette. :)

I added a photo. I'm standing in front of the tomb of Hilary Quinn Vignes, the great uncle that I was named after.
Got to know that there will be another one like that some where.

To Jeff: my research indicates that you are perhaps mistaking Theodore Agrippe D'Aubigne for his grandson, Theodore D'Aubigne. Famous Huguenot, poet, and historian Theodore Agrippe D'Aubigne had a son Constant, a betrayer of all his father stood for. Constant first married Anne Marchant, a woman reportedly as of ill-repute as Constant. Reports are mixed but one I found said she bore two sons. Theodopolis ( or something like that) died very young , while their son Theodore lived and carried on the D'Aubigne name. Most reports say Constant killed their mother Ann for adultery (despite his own reputation). Constant went to England for a while a few years after this, and later returned to France ( and prison where Constant married again and had 3 more children, with no male heir from that union that lived to carry on the name). Where Theodore went I have not been able to positively follow, but there is some evidence that he may have remained in England and had one son, Cornelius (sr),

(Sorry, I believe my paragraph above regarding Theodore is actually a response to Hilary, not Jeff.)

I have also read that Theodore Agrippa D'Aubigne had an illegitimate son who went by the name Engibuad ( an anacronym of D'Aubigne). It says Agrippa had a very good mutual relationship with this son, and after Agrippa died, this son took his father's name with his family's approval, given that his mother was of high lineage. I will try to post my source shortly.

Interesting..

I began the search of Dabneys because I saw the name in my tree of my maternal grandmother.
The name caught my eye because I was treated by Dr. Kila Dabney in Atlanta.
There are quite a few Dabneys in my home town, Baton Rouge LA. I do not know any of them because I discovered the relationship many years after I had moved away.
