When I researched the Palatines four or five years ago, I discovered that about 30% of them were in fact Catholic. This had not been the intent of Queen Anne's government, and some of them, but not all, were promptly sent back to where they had come from. The rest settled in the British Isles, including Ireland. Those who who were serving in the British army were particularly likely to settled in Ireland, especially around traditional garrison towns.
