M mark_a Guest Dec 24, 2007 #1 Here’s an interesting bit of southern history for ya. Scattered along the Georgia coast lie the nearly forgotten sites of pioneering 16th-century Franciscan missions. Here, more than 400 years ago, five Spanish friars were slain while bringing the Catholic faith to the native Guale people.
