 | | Most of France was Catholic and Henry III decided in 1598 to issue the Edict of Nantes giving the Huguenots freedom of worship in about 75 towns and cities in France and gave them complete political freedom. | | | Dupuis was also a Huguenot - a group of Protestants who became the center of political and religious quarrels in France in the 1500's and 1600's. | | | Emily's son Andrew Fletcher ambushed his step-father, Henry Elliott, and because of this murder, left Red River Parish and is believed to have gone to Mexico. |
