The problem is that…"
Martin Kelley commented on Honour Horne-Jaruk's blog post 'When Plain is fancy'"I read an academic article that said that popular contemporary ideas of Quaker plainness have more to do with historic re-enactors dressing up for special days at their meeting than to their actual plain-dressing ancestors. The modern Friends would…"

Welcome, Honour,
I am very interested in your name. My daughter is named Honor, for our immigrant ancestor Honor Treat Deming. We realized sometimes her named was spelled the British way, like yours, but chose the American spelling.
How long have you been a Friend? I have been a Friend since 1989.
Yours in Faithfulness, Paula
