DePriest

Posted by Michael D. De Priest <depriest@ponyexpress.net> on Sun, 27 Mar 2005, in response to Meaning of last name, posted by De Priest on Tue, 31 Aug 2004

I understand that my ancestors were Huegenots and came to Virginia with the French. DePriest is not a typical French name, but it is probably from the Piccardy area of northeastern France/Flanders or Belgium. I know a man from the Netherlands who says that DePriest is definitely a Dutch name.
