Being Frank: Daphne Wasserman on Francis Camfield

‘Travelling in the ministry is not only to distant parts of the world.’

by Daphne Wasserman 28th January 2022

Francis Camfield (circa 1628-1708) was one of the early Friends involved in setting up Meeting for Sufferings. He also gave a loyal address to Charles II, on the subject of the persecution of Quakers. Charles ‘appeared seriously affected with our complaint and sufferings’. Camfield later addressed both William III and Queen Anne.
