I would be interested in learning about causes for any migrations from Alsace to The Palatinate in about 1670. Also, I would be interested in any information concerning changes of religion from Catholic to Protestant during such migrations. Thank you. Howard

Howard The mosr significant cause of migration from the Alsace Lorraine to the Palatinate and other, more liberal, parts of Europe was the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685.
