Excerpt from French Orders and Decorations In 15 30 the home of the Order was trans ferred to the island of Malta. They were driven from there by Napoleon I in 1798. They sought refuge in Rome, where their headquarters is maintained to this day. Some writers Class this Order as Papal; by others it is spoken of as the Knights of Malta. It really belongs to several countries, for early in its history langues or branches were established in France, England, Italy, Germany, Provence, Auvergne and Aragon. The last of these was later divided to create the langue Of Castile. After the Peace of Amiens in 1802, the langues of Aragon and Castile united under one authority in Spain. Some of these langues are independent of the Roman Headquarters. The Order Of the Hospitalers Of St. John of Jerusalem in England is influenced and almost entirely managed by members Of the Church Of England; and the hospitalers confine themselves entirely to Charitable and hospital Work.
