I found the details of their imprisonment in the book 'Sufferings of Early Quakers', but would be grateful if anyone could tell me of any other sources of information I could use to find out more.

I am wondering if earlier Separatists, such as Brownists and other Puritans, may have also been kept in the Castle, and if so, whether there is list of these prisoners. Does anyone know? Regards, Steade
