Description
"Pere Hyacinthe", Hyacinthe Loyson, Roman Catholic Priest, ca. 1870's, col. Hyacinthe Loyson (known as "Père Hyacinthe") (10 March 1827 in Orléans – 1912 in Paris), was a controversial Roman Catholic priest, religious figure and author. In 1869/70 he broke with the Catholic Church - largely over the Vatican Council of 1870, with its doctrine of papal infallibility - and in 1872 married an American heiress, Emilie Jane Butterfield Meriman. Identified as one of the Old Catholics, Loyson continued to write and preach and ultimately established as a separate church the L'Eglise Gallicane, which drew up on the long French tradition of Gallicanism.
