  • Summary

  • Our upcoming documentary, entitled "Born from Conflict: Cavaliers and Puritans of Newport Parish," is based on the 17th century conflicts in the United Kingdom and in the English Colonial Possessions in North America. Most notably we are focusing on the English Civil Wars, also known as the War of the Three Kingdoms. The spark was a religious conflict between King Charles I and the Scottish ":Kirk" (Church) over the imposition of the English Prayer Book in Scotland. This launched a riot in the streets of Edinburgh and eventually the "Bishop's Wars." St Luke's Historic Church & Museum's Education Coordinator John Ericson will offer a brief description of these conflicts on the eve of our trip to the UK beginning March 5.
