The french presence was originally due to a law on immigration in 1777 given to Governor Falquez. There were a few hundred frenchmen already on the island when the Cedula of 1783 was proclaimed. The second is mentioned because it brought more settlers than the first but even without the Cedula of 1783 there would've been a few french on the island.
It's now a written language. Books are available in St lucia including Creole dictionary.
the dictionary was written in 2001
