the earliest Denyes we can find a record for is a christening in 1698, Chaligny France, however the feeling is that the family left France for Holland shortly after that because of religious persecution.

some generations later they immigrated to New Amsterdam (Now New York City), they sided with the British during the American Revolution and moved north to Canada as United Empire Loyalists. settling first in Amhurstberg and later north of Belleville Ontario, in Thurlow Township, There are many descendants living in the Belleville area today.

2nd Answereer says: the Related Link listed below indicates that the surname Denyes was established in Lancashire, England, prior to the Norman Conquest in 1066 AD. But their roots date back to the Pictish clans of ancient Scotland. The family motto translates to "My harvest will also arrive".
