Canterbury, Maidstone, the Cinque Ports, Norwich, and Col chester; and, secondly, of those refugees who came into this country between the years 1678 and 1688, during the troubles preceding and immediately following the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, and to whom free letters of denization were granted by Charles II.
