Charles Daubuz or Charles Daubus (1673–1717), was a Church of England clergyman and theologian.[1]

Daubuz was a French Protestant Divine, who removed to England on the revocation of the edict of Nantes (1685) and became vicar of Brotherton. He was the author of A Perpetual Commentary on the Revelation of St. John (1720),[2] which is much esteemed. He died June 14, 1717.[3]

Daubuz was born in the Province of Guienne in France. His only surviving parent, Julia Daubuz, who was reformed, was driven from her native country in 1686 by relentless persecution that preceded the revocation of the edict of Nantes. She and her family found asylum in England where they were free to exercise their religion.

Daubuz was admitted a Sizer of Queen’s College, in the University of Cambridge on January 10, 1689. In 1693, he obtained his first degree in Arts, on January 13th, then was appointed librarian of his college, that same year, on March 21st.

In 1699, Daubuz was presented by the dean and chapter of York to the Vicarage of Brotherton, a small village near Ferrybridge, in the West Riding of Yorkshire. His yearly salary as vicar was that of sixty or seventy pounds. That same year, he received his degree of A.M. on July 2nd.

Daubuz died on June 14, 1717. His remains were interred in the churchyard of Brotherton, at the east end of the church, headed by a marble slab erected in his memory. Eight children survived him, the eldest being almost fourteen years old. He possessed three gold coins from Louis XIV that were found in the wall of his vicarage house.

Works on Revelation

Daubuz held the traditional historicist view of The Apocalypse in which the events of Revelation correspond to historical events that occured during the lifetime of the author of Revelation to the age of Constantine.[4]

Some of his works include:

  • A Symbolical Dictionary of the Prophetic Symbols (Copy 1842) [5]
  • A Perpetual Commentary on the Revelation of St. John (1720) [2]
