Mary Mollineux (1651 - 1696)
Mary Mollineux (born Mary Southworth, 1651–1696), probably the daughter of Catholic parents who converted to Quakerism, differed from many of her Quaker contemporaries because of an early education in Latin, Greek, science, and arithmetic. She met her husband Henry Mollineux (died 1719), who wrote Quaker tracts, while they were both imprisoned in Lancaster Castle in 1684 for attending Quaker meetings. Her husband was imprisoned again in 1690 for refusing to pay tithes to the Church of England and Mary petitioned for his release.
