Hi Barbara I'm not an expert on Quakers but I've come across the following websites, which I kept details of in case I should ever need them: Leeds University Library - Special Collections: Quaker Archives Database http://www.leeds.ac.uk/library/spcoll/quaker/quakint1.htm Yorkshire Quaker Heritage Project http://www.learndev.hull.ac.uk/quaker/ You might find what you're looking for there; there's also a Quaker FHS which might be able to help you. On the whole Quakers were quite good at keeping records, so somewhere you may be in luck. Incidentally, I believe the chocolate-making Rowntrees were a Quaker family, so there may be some well-documented connections waiting for you.
