In support of this possibility, I can add that my Calvet ancestors came from France, starting in 1685 when the Edict of Nantes was revoked by Louis IV, and settled in Spitalfields.In fact, Jean Calvet was a Huguenot minister in St. Rome de Tarn, France, and became a pastor of the main Huguenot church in England, which was on Threadneedle Street in Spitalfields.
