Thanks, Mal.> HE appears also (if indeed it is the same man, which I would not care to swear to or put money on!) in the book "Sufferings of Early Quakers: Yorkshire 1652 to 1690" as having been jailed at York in 1682 and dying in prison there in 1684. But is it the same James Bond who appeared in the list of Bradford Recusants? I honestly could not say, but perhaps you have more evidence? There is another lister here who descends from this man, with whom I have had some e-mail exchange. I am sure she will make herself known to you, Mal.
