Throughout Europe, there were around 800 such seminaries. They prepared Jesuits for missionary work in England, with 60 migrating in the 1570s, and around 500 by 1603. The first Jesuits were <a href="/wiki/Edmund_Campion" title="Edmund Campion">Edmund Campion</a> and <a href="/wiki/Robert_Persons" title="Robert Persons">Robert Persons</a>. </p><p>The Benedictine <a href="/wiki/Priory" title="Priory">priory</a> of <a href="/wiki/St_Gregory_the_Great" class="mw-redirect" title="St Gregory the Great">St Gregory the Great</a> was founded by <a href="/wiki/Saint_John_Roberts" class="mw-redirect" title="Saint John Roberts">Saint John Roberts</a> at Douai in 1605, with a handful of exiled English Benedictines who had entered various monasteries in Spain, as the first house after the Reformation to begin conventual life. The community was established within the <a href="/wiki/English_Benedictine_Congregation" title="English Benedictine Congregation">English Benedictine Congregation</a> and started a college for English Catholic boys unable to find a Catholic education at home, and pursued studies at the University of Douai. The community was expelled at the time of the <a href="/wiki/French_Revolution" title="French Revolution">French Revolution</a> in 1793 and, after some years of wandering, finally settled at <a href="/wiki/Downside_Abbey" title="Downside Abbey">Downside Abbey</a>, Somerset, in 1814. </p><p>Another English Benedictine community, the Priory of <a href="/wiki/St._Edmund" class="mw-redirect" title="St. Edmund">St. Edmund</a>, which had been formed in Paris in 1615 by Dom Gabriel Gifford, later Archbishop of <a href="/wiki/Rheims" class="mw-redirect" title="Rheims">Rheims</a> and primate of France, was expelled from Paris during the Revolution, and eventually took over the vacant buildings of the community of St Gregory's in 1818. Later, following <a href="/wiki/Ren%C3%A9_Waldeck-Rousseau" class="mw-redirect" title="René Waldeck-Rousseau">Waldeck-Rousseau</a>'s Law of Associations (1901), this community also returned to England
