The Bible Christians of the Forest of Dean (Announce)

by admin , Forest of Dean, Wednesday, February 27, 2008, 16:28 (6112 days ago)

The following details were sent to us by Rev Colin Short

The Standard Work on the BCs is ... "The Bible Christians 1815-1907" Thomas Shaw, London: Epworth 1965, and on the BCs in the Forest, "The Bible Christians of the Forest of Dean" George Lawrence, Lydney: Mrs M.A.Lawrence 1985.

They were a west country branch of Methodism, but did not have a mission in India. They should not be confused with the vegetarian Bible Christians of Salford, Lancs, who were never in the Forest. More details from me.
