Wesleyan Methodist preachers' travel expenses
(1807-1808)
Major expenses incurred by Wesleyan Methodist preachers and reimbursed by the church are detailed in the annual accounts.

Wesleyan Methodist preachers' wives
(1807-1808)
Wives of Wesleyan Methodist ministers were supported by the church, either centrally or through the local congregations: lists of wives were therefore printed in the annual minutes. Unfortunately, the ladies' Christian names are never given; where it is necessary to distinguish between wives of ministers with the same surnames, the husbands' Christian names are given. The S. preceding each name signifies 'Sister'. Examining these lists is nevertheless a good way to trace approximate dates of marriage for a minister, and approximate dates of death of wives that predeceased them.
