Manuscripts
Materials related to a family of 17th and 18th century Dissenters, who actively did not adhere to the Church of England. The collection includes manuscript sermons, pamphlets, and letters written by various members of the Pearse family, as well as some family documents, including wills. Materials offer a multi-generational family perspective, as well as writings by women, on topics such as church and state politics, religious and personal belief, censorship, and early modern religion and activism. The collection also includes printed and manuscript works by other authors including Stephen Addington, John Howe, Edward Leigh, John Ross Macduff, Catharine Maria Sedgwick, and John Trotter. Also includes full transcriptions of a portion of the letters, transcribed by P. A. V. Hickling, an early owner of the collection. In addition, the collection includes the research materials of David A. Thomas, a 20th century scholar who worked with the collection and original sources to write a book, The Pearse Collection: Chronicles of a Preaching Family, 1600-1750, which was never published.
