A quiet roll-call of the departed, and a striking portrait of faith lived simply and steadfastly in nineteenth-century America. Every name carries a story. The American Annual Monitor for 1861 gathers quaker obituary records for Society of Friends members who died in 1860 across the United States, creating a meticulous nineteenth century death register just before the turmoil of pre civil war america became open conflict. In plain, reverent language, these american religious obituaries and quaker memorial biographies sketch lives of service, conviction and everyday holiness, offering an intimate window into 19th century american quakers, their meetings, families and communities. For historians and family researchers alike it serves as a rare historical reference for genealogists, grounded in authentic american quaker church records and deepening our understanding of society of friends history and belief. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this classic religious obituary collection returns to view after long absence. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Ideal for quaker genealogy research, church and local-history libraries, and readers drawn to spiritual lives recorded without ornament, The American Annual Monitor for 1861 brings a long-vanished reference work back into circulation in a form that honours its quiet power. A compelling primary source for scholars, yet equally accessible to the curious casual reader, it stands as a humane, unvarnished chronicle of loss, memory and enduring faith.
