The Life And Testimony Of Elizabeth Vaughan
Death. On March 21st, 1890, Elizabeth Vaughan, Widow Of The Late William Vaughan, For Twenty-Seven Years Pastor Of The Church At Bradford, Yorkshire. A close friendship and correspondence having been kept up between myself and the deceased for nearly half a century, I feel my mind led to state a few particulars respecting her during her pilgrimage journey in this vale of tears.

The Life And Death Of John Booth
Mr. John Booth, for 30 years pastor of Zoar Particular Baptist chapel, Bradford, Yorkshire.

The Life And Legacy Of John Booth

The Life And Death Of William Vaughan
He was born in Shropshire in the year 1811, and at the early age of four was the subject of divine impressions which never left him.

The Life And Ministry Of Samuel Richardson
It is probable from his name being signed with that of Mr. Spilsbury’s to the “Confession of Faith” that he was his colleague. He published a Pamphlet in reply to Dr. Featly’s virulent work against the Baptists. This consists of 18 quarto pages, and is entitled, “Some brief considerations on Doctor Featly his Book, intituled, The Dipper Dipt, wherein, in some measure, is discovered his many great and false accusations of divers persons, commonly called Anabaptists, with an Answer to them, and some brief reasons for their practices.”

The Life And Ministry Of Nehemiah Coxe
It is supposed that this eminent man was the son of Mr. Benjamin Coxe mentioned in our history of the Bedfordshire churches. This will account for his extraordinary learning notwithstanding the low station in Society he occupied at one period of his life. Dr. Coxe is frequently noticed in the records of the church at Bedford. He was admitted a member the 3rd of May 1669, and was one of those persons called to the ministry with the celebrated John Bunyan.
