Early Quaker education in Pennsylvania

Education -- Pennsylvania -- History; Society of Friends -- Education -- History; Thesis (Ph. D.)
_The Pennsylvania Journal and Weekly Advertiser._ Incomplete files
between 1742 and 1788.
_The Pennsylvania Packet or General Advertiser._ Incomplete files from
1771-1800.
_The Pennsylvania Chronicle._ Incomplete files from 1767-1774.
NOTE: The newspapers above mentioned were examined in so far as the
rather incomplete files at the New York Public Library and the library
of the Pennsylvania Historical Society permitted. Though the files of
neither were complete, the seven taken together cover the period studied
very well. School advertisements and occasional anonymous articles on
education are the chief items they offer, which are of value.
