History of the Provine Name and some background genealogy "Provine" Began as "Purviance" For this early genealogy we are indebted to Stuart H. Purvines and his mammoth undertaking “The Purviance Family”. The following page of information is from his book. To give a history of the Provines, we must first go to France, where the de PurVaiance family originated. JOHN de PURVAIANCE died in Royan, France about 1630. Two grandsons are known, Lewis and Jacques. ----------------------------------------------------- | ||||
