Two Early Political Associations: The Quakers and the Dissenting Deputies in the Age of Sir Robert Walpole
The Dissenting Deputies and the American Colonies
From time to time during the later colonial period individuals or groups in America sought and received advice and political assistance from certain influential friends in England.

Some of these groups were very eccentric in their belie…
