Rushden Research Group: Charles Drawbridge

Charles Drawbridge
Preacher and Lecturer

When Charles Drawbridge was minister at the Succoth Chapel in Rushden, and evening lecturer at Zoar Chapel, Wellingborough, he was publishing articles and some of his sermons. The printers took over publishing, and eventually a book was published.

The book title and first sermon/lecture is missing from the copy of the book from which these titles are extracted.

The Sermons were printed on a single sheet, sold at one penny each, or 7s per hundred. The early ones were distributed in London, Northampton, Manchester, Sleaford, Leicester, Bedworth, Liverpool, Godmanchester, Boston, Nottingham, Rugby, Ellington, New Brunswick USA, Van Dieman’s Land, and at Wellingborough and Rushden.
