When did Edmund Backhouse become less of a Quaker and more of a Country Squire?

Members or Ministers?[edit]

An unregistered editor has changed

Youngest son of Jonathan Backhouse (1779-1842), banker, of Polam Hill, Darlington, and of his wife Hannah Chapman Backhouse, daughter of Joseph Gurney of Norwich. Both parents were minister of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers), travelling in Great Britain and North America.

.

I suspect that both Jonathan and Hannah Backhouse were recorded ministers. They travelled "in the Ministry". Unless anyone can present evidence that they were not ministers, I shall revert, but perhaps add some explanation of the term "minister" Vernon White - T A L K . . . to me. 17:17, 14 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
