I am not sure why I fell in love with the idea of the Quaker faith. It grabbed me from the first moment I heard anything about Roger Williams or William Penn. I had no idea that my rebel spirit would come honestly. It would come from those who lived quiet lives but didn't feel they had to fit into the Puritan World that surrounded them.
Imagine my surprise when doing my family genealogy I found a strong Quaker woman with some questionable ethics. A rebel, a woman who even by today's standards might seem a bit trashy. But I feel defensive of her, I feel a kindred spirit. As soon as I read her story, I knew she was mine and I was hers. So, know sit back while I tell you the story of Harwood/Herodias Long.
Honestly, I prefer to call
