Fraissinet-de-Lozère

Fraissinet-de-Lozère is a former commune in the Lozère department in southern France. On 1 January 2016, it was merged into the new commune of Pont-de-Montvert-Sud-Mont-Lozère. Its population was 192 in 2019.After the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685 by the Edict of Fontainebleau, several people from Fraissinet-de-Lozère fled to England or the Dutch Republic. They kept in touch with their family, though, even during the Nine Years' War . They managed to maintain networks, so that people, money and information would come and go from Cévennes to the Dutch Republic. An account of the Battles of Barfleur and La Hogue elaborated by Dutch propaganda, very critical against Louis XIV, was thus sent and kept by the main characters of the Rouvière family, one of the most powerful groups of the village. This could mean that "newly converted" did not plainly support their king.
