Jane Etta Ford in the reform dress
No full textC. 2 negative. Jane Etta Ford (1834-1914). She was married to David Andrew Ford (1928?-19260. They became Seventh-day Adventists under the ministry of Elder J. B. Frisbie at Wright, Michigan in 1858. Andrews University has the Wright, Michigan church records for 1861-1877 and they are both mentioned several times (David was disfellowshiped in 1864 for joining the army during the Civil War and was readmitted in 1867!). Wright, Michigan is near Coopersville 13 miles west of Grand Rapids. In the book, Ellen G. White, v.2, The Progressive Years 1862-1876 by Arthur White (p. 182), there is mention of Ellen White ""introducing"" the reform dress to the Wright Church in December 21, 1866 and it being ""immediately adopted by the numerous sisters of that church."" This fact makes the picture of Jane Etta all the more interesting.69.611 K

Hamilton, Catherine Jane [pseud. Retlaw Spring] (1841–1935), author and journalist
Get PDFHamilton, Catherine Jane [pseud. Retlaw Spring] (1841-1935), author and journalist, was born on 25 January 1841 at Kilmersdon, Somerset, where she was baptized on 12 April 1841, the younger of two daughters of Richard Hamilton (1805?-1859), vicar of Kilmersdon, and his wife Charlotte, née Cooper (1809-1882), the fifth daughter of William Cooper, of Queens County, Ireland.

The light of the eye : doctrine, piety and reform in the works of Thomas Sherlock, Hannah More and Jane Austen
No full textBibliography: leaves 376-401.This thesis investigates the ways in which three eighteenth-century writers, Bishop Thomas Sherlock, Hannah More and Jane Austen embody orthodox Anglican doctrine according to their individual perceptions of the enlightening properties of Protestant Christianity. After situating them in their respective gender, literary and ecclesiastical contexts, I examine some of their key doctrines and analyse excerpts from their works. My selection of passages from Sherlock's works is fairly comprehensive, but in the case of More and Austen, where there is already a formidable body of literary criticism, it is more selective. Thus, I focus on doctrine in More's tracts, Strictures on the System of Female Education, An Essay on St Paul and most especially Coelebs in Search of a Wife and in the case of Austen, on her prayers and select passages from Sense and Sensibility and Mansfield Park. I conclude that, although diverse in their particular kind of Anglicanism (High, Evangelical and Median) and in their choice of genre, transparency or obscurity (anonymity and pseudonymity) and the various narratological strategies some of them invoke to circumvent certain taboos, Sherlock, More and Austen champion the same central orthodox doctrines, defend them against current alternatives to orthodoxy such as Latitudinarianism, Deism and various forms of Freethinking, and promote similar moral and ecclesiastical reforms. However, indirectly (through female characters who resist male representation or control) the women writers subject their ostensibly authorially-endorsed male narrators/characters to scrutiny and sometimes (when the males objectify the women) subversion
