The first band of the Little Brothers came to Santa Elena
The first band of the Little Brothers came to Santa Elena in 1573. Most of their work centered around San Agustin. Part of them went to Guale only to be driven out or slain. But the friars held on. Churches were built in the principal towns—at Tolomato, at Tupique, at Guale, at Yoa. On the southern coast San Pedro (Cumberland Island) became an important missionary center, where Father Baltasar Lopez won fame.
