The Reverend Pierre (Peter) Fontaine, B.A.
Born Taunton, England, 1691; Died 1757
Ordained by the Bishop of London
Married Elizabeth Founeaux 1714
Emigrated to Vriginia 1716
Rector of 1st Huguenot Colony in Virginia at Manakin
Rector of Westover Parish Church for 40 years
Chaplain of Virginia Comission that ran the boundry line between Virginia and North Carolina.
This picture is hanging in Westover Parish now. He was their 2nd Reverend. The staff there believe he is buried here: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?age=cr&CRid=1964284&CScn=westover+plantation&
I looked through all of Weston Parish and he has no marker there. I also looked at every marker at Weston Plantation. There is 1 with no name and 2 too faded to read, but I didn't find a marker there either.
