Wesleyan Methodist preachers' widows
(1809-1810)
The Wesleyan Methodist church's Merciful Fund provided annuities for preachers' widows, as well as other payments to retired clergy, widows and other dependants in need. These are listed in the annual minutes. Particularly useful is the fact that, after a widow remarried, her first married surname and her new surname were both given.NEWTON.

Wesleyan Methodist preachers' wives
(1809-1810)
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.
