Next  question for all: how about written records of the Huguenot diaspora 
and  experience? Diaries? Wills, estate, or probate documents? Shipping records 
or  manifests? Biographies or (even better) autobiographies? Town planning  
(someone earlier mentioned that, I think)? Observations by  neighbors?

Mil gracias,

Jeff - 
 
the South Carolina Historical Society has many, many such documents. Their  
index is online.  Arthur Hirsch's (1927) The Huguenots of Colonial  SC has 
recently been reprinted by the USC Press. It's a great introduction  for SC at 
least.  Huguenots were a sizable proportion of the early  population here, and 
had a great influence on the development of the  colony.
