These are lists of Cumbrian family names appearing in two books covering
the early period of Quakerism in the area.
Besse's work covers the period up to 1690. Ferguson's work continues into
the early part of the 18th century. MANY LOCAL QUAKER FAMILIES ARE NOT MENTIONED
IN EITHER WORK (The Beebys for example). Further references will be added to
these lists in the future.
