In an article on Thomas Priaulx (He was the second son of Thomas Priaulx and his wife Rebecca, daughter of John Le Marchant) we find.
Carteret, Jersey & Co, the firm owned by his brothers-in-law. Carteret, Jersey & Co was one of the largest businesses in Rotterdam and specialised in shipping alcohol and tea to England via the Channel Islands.
So maybe we can find a connection or new clue.Lets look at their records in Rotterdam.

The alliance of Elizabeth with Dr F[rancis] P[ery] Hutchesson was against the wishes of the three Misses Le Marchant, sisters of Eléazar Le Marchant, Seigneur du Comte and dependancies. Dr Hutchesson had been in the army and came here with his regiment. The Le Marchant property had devolved in the line of Eléazar and his sisters, and the whole ought to have descended to the family of Charles, but the old ladies would not countenance the marriage of Elizabeth with an army man (un Swablin³), and, in consequence, the largest share of the property was diverted from its proper line, and went to John Le Marchant, son of James, of Rotterdam, who had married Mary, the eldest daughter of Robert Porret Le Marchant, and a large share was given to Thomas Priaulx of Montville, a legatee under the will of these ladies.
So maybe we can find a connection or new clue.Lets look at their records in Rotterdam.
