It seems strange, then, that she would still be referred to as "an Anabaptist widow." It would be sort of like referring to Luther after his marriage to Katherina as "a Papist monk."  | Yes, the wording in that article could have been more clear on this point. Undoubtedly, Idelette was a Presbyterian, not an Anabaptist, immediately prior to and during her marriage to John Calvin.
