We have now come to the end of the 1st part of the Wexford Palatines. We have seen their homeland and also the reasons they had for leaving. What we can say is that the region was an area devastated by many wars and famine. And in the middle of all of this comes along a Golden Book promising a better life in the English Carolinas. Part I of the story has covered the origins of the Wexford Palatines.
The Palatinate
The Thirty Years War
William Penn
King Louis XIV
The War of the Palatine Succession
The War of the Spanish Succession
The Golden Book
Part II of their story details their journey from the Palatinate to Wexford. It was not a destination that any of them would have guessed at when they left. It begins with a journey down the Rhine.

I loved reading Part one of the Wexford Palatine story. Has the second part of the Wexford Palatine story been written?
