Jean Ribaut, (born c. 1520, Dieppe, France—died Oct. ... He returned to France on July 20, 1562. France's religious wars prevented him from bringing fresh supplies to Charlesfort, and the colonists there soon abandoned the settlement.

Explanation:

In 1562, Jean Ribault (jawn re BOW) was sent from France to Florida in order to explore the area and begin a new colony. His lieutenant was Rene Laudonnière. Ribault sailed with three ships that carried one hundred fifty people: Huguenots, or French Protestants. France wanted to control this new land and drive out the Spanish settlers.

Ribault landed near the St. Augustine area. As he sailed further north, he found a river that was called the St. Johns River. Because he did not like the river's Spanish name, he renamed it the "River of May." (Today, it is known again as the St. Johns River.) At the mouth of the river, Ribault built a stone monument to mark his visit and claim it for France.

Afterwards, Ribault continued north to a place in South Carolina that he called Port Royal. Here, the Huguenots built a fort and named it Charlesfort, in honor of their king. Before long, the supplies began to dwindle, so Ribault sailed back to France to gather more.

Much to his dismay, religious conflict had broken out and he was unable to raise any money for supplies. Ribault went to Queen Elizabeth of England for help. She had him arrested for establishing a French Colony in Spanish Territory. He was put in a London prison.
