Denis Papin fled to London where the last evidence of his whereabouts was a letter he wrote dated January 23, 1712.
A Huguenot, Papin's life was greatly affected by the increasing restrictions placed on Protestants by Louis XIV of France and the King's ultimate revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685.

 DENIS PAPIN - LoveToKnow Article on DENIS PAPIN
Papin, on his arrival in London, found himself without resources and almost without friends; applications through Sir Hans Sloane to the Royal Society for grants of money were made in vain, and he died in total obscurity, probably about the beginning of 1712.
In 1705 Leibnitz sent Papin a sketch of Thomas Saverys engine for raising water, and this stimulated him to further exertions, which resulted two years afterwards in the publication of the Ars nova ad aquam ignis adminiculo efficacissime elevandarn (Cassel, 1707), in which his high-pressure boiler and its applications are described (see STEAM ENGINE).
In 1707 he resolved to quit Cassel for London, and on the 24th of September of that year he sailed with his family from Cassel in an ingeniously constructed boat, propelled by paddle-wheels, to be worked by the crew, with which he apparently expected to reach the mouth of the Weser.
