[manuscript] COWIE FAMILY PAPERS. A small collection of letters and other documents relating to the Cowie family of Islington ca 1805-1815. One letter, in the hand of Jean Cowie, refers to Jews being baptised at the Sion Capel, when "a great number of Jews were present". She also refers to a converted Jew preaching at the Chapel. Eyewitness accounts of the conversion and baptising of Jews at this time are extremely rare. Jews, however, had no voting rights in Britain until later in the Century. £250-350
