Marian exiles

Catherine Willoughby, Duchess of Suffolk, fleeing Catholic England with her husband Richard Bertie, her daughter Susan and a wet nurse.

The Marian exiles were English Protestants who fled to continental Europe during the 1553–1558 reign of the Catholic monarchs Queen Mary I and King Philip.[1][2][3] They settled chiefly in Protestant countries such as the Netherlands, Switzerland and Germany, and also in France,[citation needed] Italy[citation needed] and Poland.[citation needed]
