Descendants of Anthony Bowne:
Hannah became a member of the Society of Friends and after John attended
a Quaker meeting held in the woods, he invited the group to meet
at his home. This led to his arrest in 1662 and he was convicted
of disobeying a law about worshipping outside of the Reformed Dutch
Church. After a time of solitary confinement on bread and water,
he was allowed to return home for three days and then sent as a prisoner
to Holland. He was asked to sign a document denying his faith but
refused to do this even though it meant a return to his family and
assured the ruin of his estate. The directors of the West India Company
concluded that the loss of religious freedom to the New Netherlands
colony would doubtless destroy their plans of colonization in America.
John was given his freedom and returned to America. Thus the persecution
of Quakers in New Netherlands was ended. Early in 1675 Hannah entered
the ministry and made a second visit to England in 1676 where she
was later joined by her husband. They traveled through England and
Ireland and Hannah was taken ill in London where she died. John returned
to Flushing NY.
