I discovered this recent article on ‘Walter Ker and the “Sweet Singers”’ by Douglas W. B. Somerset. I heartily recommend this excellent article to everyone with an interest in the Sweet Singers, the Society people and the early history of the American colonies. It is especially strong and fascinating on what happened to the Sweet Singers after banishment.
For more on the Sweet Singers, see here.
