Quaker
Archives Database
http://www.leeds.ac.uk/library/spcoll/quaker/quakint1.htm
The Quaker Archives Database from the University
of Leeds special collections department has created a name index
of many of the older documents in The University Library's Carlton
Hill archive. This archive relates mainly to Quaker records of West
and North Yorkshire. Seventy minute books have been indexed; creating
a total of almost 40,000 records. A list of the documents which
have been indexed for inclusion in the database is available from
the site. It is possible to limit searches to particular types of
data, for example name, place or meeting. The results can be displayed
by name or by meeting. The results provide references to the documents
in the archive containing the search terms used. Online help on
how to use the database is available from the site. A longer guide
in PDF format is also available from the site.
