Excerpt from The Gurneys of Earlham, Vol. 1 The Gurneys of Earlham were a Quaker family, who - through their personal qualities and their self-devotion - played a more con spicuous part than any other set of brothers and sisters in the religious and philanthropic life of England during the first half of the nine teenth century.
