jan 1, 1651 - Dissenters (1651)
Description:
The body of people in England that refused to accept the newly restored Church of England. They were excluded from many rights such as from governing bodies and teaching. It created issues with the common men of making their own religious choices and represented the fact that while there was toleration, there wasn’t effective equality in any manner regarding religion. (Palmer, 163)
