Dissension in the Colony
The French Huguenots who arrived in the colony is the 1680s and 1690s eventually sided with the Anglicans. The Dissenters wanted the Huguenots disenfranchised, denied the right to vote, so the Dissenters would have more power. In 1695, Governor John Archdale agreed to the request, and the Huguenots lost their right to vote. Two years later, the Goose Creek men succeeded in passing a law that granted the Huguenots citizenship, returning their right to vote. The Huguenots then sided with the Goose Creek men, giving the Anti-Proprietary party more power. Instead of gaining more power by disenfranchising the Huguenots, the Dissenters eventually lost power.
