When did George Fox find Quakerism?

Answer 1

He didn't exactly 'find' Quakerism but their style of worship began from about the early 1650's in England.

George Fox had been travelling around trying to find an understanding of spirituality.

Answer: The Quakers, or the Religious Society of Friends, arose in the 17th-century England. The Friends founder was George Fox (1621-91) a weaver's son born in Leicestershire. After alledgedly hearing a miraculous voice, Fox concluded that he could commune directly with God and receive enlightment apart from human mediation. "The traditional date for the order of the Society of Friends is 1652" says the book A Religious History of the American People. They came to be called Quakers per one reference because they experienced agitated movements before moments of divine revelation. Another reference says because they "trembled under an awful sense of the infinite purity and majesty of God. The Quakers aim was to find religious truth and to revive primitive Christianity. For guidance, they claimed to look to the holy spirit, the Biblical Prophets, the apostles of Christ and an inner light or voice of alleged spiritual truth. Meetings were periods of group silence during which each person sought God's guidance. Any who received a divine message could speak up. Nowadays many Quaker churches have a paid minister who conducts services in an organized manner. Beginning in 1681 the Quaker experience in North America took an amazing turn. In what has been called a "holy experiment" in statecraft, William Penn (1644-1718) a young English convert to the Society of Friends established a colony based on Quaker ideals and administered by Quakers.
