Notes for Jesse and Amy Cadwallader:
From the Quaker meeting notes of Clear
Creak Co., Ohio, August 14, 1819
'' A number of Quakers were listed as joining the Dunkard Church. They were called Dunkers, because, unlike the Quakers,they believed in baptism by immersion. This sect was founded in Germany in 1708 where they suffered religious persecution. As a result, many of them came to America and settled at Germantown,Pa., where they founded the Conservative Dunkers or Church of the Brethern. They had a strict code of ethics and beliefs similar to the Quakers. Quaker records indicate that some Cadwalladers were expelled because of disunity. The following example appeared in the Clear Creak meeting notes of Clinton County, Ohio:
8-14-1819 Jesse (Cadwallader) and wife, Amy (Cox) and children :John, Isaac, Moses, Mahlon, Silas, Betsy, and Jonah received by certificate from the South River meeting, Virginia, dated 5-1-1819
12-9-1820 John, Disunity, joined another Society.
2-10-1821 Amy, disunity, joined another Society.
3-10-1821 Jesse, disunity, joined another Society.
3-9-1822 Moses, disunity, joined another Society.
6-11-1825 Isacc and wife, Tamer, granted a certificate of transfer to the White Lick Meeting, Indiana

11-13-1830 Mahlon, disunity, joined the Dunkers.
5-20-1834 Jonah, disunity, joined the dunkers.
In these recorded meeting notes, we learn that Jesse, his wife Amy, and all of their children, except Isaac, were dismissed from the Quaker Church during the years 1820-1834. Most of them joined the Dunkard Church, and John became a Dunkard minister.
