Abstract
The culture of France that formed Vincent de Paul, Louise de Marillac and their two congregations also played a part in the union with the Daughters of Charity by the Sisters of Charity of St. Joseph’s, founded by St. Elizabeth Ann Seton (1774-1821). Among these were the Sulpician priests, Elizabeth's own upbringing, the French influences in American Catholic life, the French in Baltimore, and the developing Vincentian influences on the Sisters of St. Joseph's. Effective in the union with France were certain American bishops and priests with a French background or formation. After the union with France, the French influence declined.
