Index
"The Huguenot Society of Great Britain and Ireland, originally named The Huguenot Society of London, was created in 1885 by the directors of the French Hospital (founded in 1718) to promote the publication and interchange of knowledge about the history of French Protestant migration, much of which was unknown to many Huguenot descendants.  The Society also aims to form a bond of fellowship among those who respect and admire the Huguenots and seek to perpetuate their memory."
The name Huguenot was given to French Protestants who were influenced by Martin Luther's preaching early in the 16th century, and who later established a reformed church following the teachings of John Calvin.  By the middle of the 16th century, there were about 2,000 congregations and perhaps 1.5 million believers.  As the French Protestant church grew it came into increasing conflict with the Roman Catholic Church and the monarchy.  The continuing effort to eliminate rather than tolerate these Protestants resulted in a century of bitter persecution and fighting.
From the 1530s to 1560, the French Reformed Church experienced rapid growth, particularly among the nobility.  By the 1560s, the Huguenots had their own churches, schools, garrisoned towns, manned castles and fortifications.  But as the Protestant Church grew, conflict with the Roman Catholic Church and the Crown intensified.  As early as the 1530s, the first religious refugees began to leave France.
The Huguenot refugees who left France were generally merchants, artisans, craftsmen, weavers or were skilled in specific trades.  Many were well-educated, and some were able to establish new roles as entrepreneurs or professionals where they settled.  They were generally well-received where they located, and became industrious members of their new communities.  Some of these immigrants and their descendents played significant roles in the history of their newly adopted countries.
