Abraham LeRoux (d.1712), a French Huguenot, immigrated about 1680 from France (probably via Holland and England), and settled at Esopus, Old Ulster, New York (now Kingston, New York) between 1688 and 1692. He later moved to Staten Island, New York and then to Hunterdon County, New Jersey. Isaac LaRue Sr. (1712-1795), a direct descendant of Abraham, lived to Frederick County, Virginia. Descendants and relatives lived in New York, New Jersey, Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Illinois and elsewhere.

Includes Enlow, Keith, Thomas, Walters and related families.
