SAMPLE SNIPPET FROM THE EBOOK

Huguenot persecution in France

Before Martin Luther pinned up his 95 protests on the church door in Wittenberg in 1517, all Christians had belonged to one church, the Catholic Church.

After that a movement called the Reformation began, during which time many reformed churches were established.

The members of these became known as Protestants, because they protested against certain practices in the Catholic Church.

In France, the Protestants became known as Huguenots.

For some time, they were allowed to worship freely, but they began to be harassed and in 1685, when their rights were taken away, many of them fled from France to other countries like England, Holland, Prussia and America.

The Huguenots’ arrival at the Cape

The Voorschoten was the first ship carrying 22 refugees to leave Holland, on 31 December 1687. Due to storm damage, she put in at Saldanha Bay on 13 April 1688 and a small yacht, the Jupiter, later carried the French settlers to Cape Town.

The other ships were the Borssenburg, the Oosterland, Berg China, Zuid Beveland, the Schelde, Wapen van Alkmaar, Vosmaar and Driebergen.

Today there are still passenger lists of the above-mentioned vessels. At least three babies were recorded as being born aboard ship.
