Anglicans and the Atlantic World: High Churchmen, Evangelicals, and the Quebec Connection

Richard W. Vaudry,Richard W. Vaudry

All too often the religious and cultural experiences of British North Americans have been analysed without reference to the world of the Atlantic empire. This book seeks to redress this by demonstrating that transatlantic connections continued to shape the history of the Anglican church in Quebec throughout the 19th century. To achieve this Richard Vaudry traces the migration of both English and Irish Protestants and examines the careers of various prominent Quebec Anglicans, including Jacob, Eliza and George Mountain, Jasper Hume Nicolls, Henry Roe, Jonathan and Edmund Willoughby Sewell, and finally Jeffrey Hale - families with impeccable imperial credentials. By stressing the importance of an imperial, transatlantic culture, Vaudry offers a fresh and innovative look at the history of the Anglican church in 18th- and 19th-century Quebec.
