"Quakers" is a name given to the religious group "The Religious Society of Friends," which began in England around the 17th century. Adherents tend to avoid clergy and rituals and focus on personal spiritual experiences. The founders included George Fox (1624-1691).
Quakers are a group of Christians who use no scripture and believe in great simplicity in daily life. The early Quakers came to colonial America under the auspices of William Penn, who established the colony of Pennsylvania.
