*ARCHIVE* Hampshire Quakers – Hampshire Archives Trust, 24th Nov.
Hampshire Archives Trust – Talk About Hampshire Quakers – Rosemary Dunhill
A HAT online talk on 24 November at 7pm – FREE!
‘A people not fit to breathe in English Aire’ Hampshire Quakers before the Toleration Act.
Quaker beliefs reached Hampshire in about 1655, attracting supporters in many parts of the county. Their commitment and unwillingness to compromise lay them open to persecution and led to the creation of a fine archive. The talk will look at their community life as reflected in that archive, with particular emphasis on the community at and around Alton.
This event is open to all who may be interested. Please book to attend this zoom on line talk by emailing secretary@hampshirearchivestrust.co.uk
