Jean Ranc, born in Paris in 1641, was a Hugenot pastor during an era when the persecution of Protestants had been suppressed by the Edict of Nantes. When King Louis XIV of France revoked the edict and resumed unfettered persecutions, the Ranc family fled to Germany.  The Elector Frederick of the Palatinate maintained his province as a safe haven for Protestants, and Mannheim became a center of  French Hugenot settlement.  It is presumed that Jean Ranc was married while in Paris, although his wife's name is unknown to us,  and that his son Jean Valentin Ranc was also born there. The son's name became Hans Valentine Ranck after the move to Mannheim.  Jean Ranc lived to see six grandchildren born to this son, four surviving childhood.  When Hans died in 1710, the old man cared for his son's family until he himself died two years later, in 1712.  As a religious leader, he no doubt had cared deeply about religious divisions that underlay political events in Europe.  He did not live to know that at least three of the grandchildren he helped raise emigrated to freedom in America in 1728 and 1729.<br>Please see http://www.ranck.org/

Jean Veltin Ranc, born in Paris in 1641, was per Ranc family tradition a Hugenot pastor during an era when the persecution of Protestants had been suppressed by the Edict of Nantes. When King Louis XIV of France revoked the edict and resumed unfettered persecutions, the Ranc family fled to Germany. The Elector Frederick of the Palatinate maintained his province as a safe haven for Protestants, and Mannheim became a center of French Hugenot settlement. It is presumed that Jean Veltin Ranc was married while in Paris, although his wife's name is unknown to us, and that his son Jean Valentin Ranc was also born there. The son's name became Hans Valentine Ranck after the move to Mannheim. Jean Ranc lived to see six grandchildren born to this son, four surviving childhood. When Hans died in 1710, the old man cared for his son's family until he himself died two years later, in 1712. As a religious leader, he no doubt had cared deeply about religious divisions that underlay political events in Europe. He did not live to know that at least three of the grandchildren he helped raise emigrated to freedom in America in 1728 and 1729.
