This book is intended to be a historical account of the life of Mary Plaskett (Nee: Bower), and available as a reference guide for other genealogist’s, historians who are interested in her life, or for readers interested in the lives of Methodists in the 18th century. The author of this book has studied her life for many years, and shares DNA with her husband Henry Plaskett through a matching cousin that shares William Thorne of Downton (1630 - 1688) and Christabell Wilkins (1631 - 1690) as common ancestors. This couple are the great-grandparents of Henry Plaskett (1731 - 1790). Mary Plaskett was a prominent member of the Salisbury Methodist circuit, and would have met the church’s founder John Wesley on one of his 40 visits to Salisbury in the 18th century. Her life was important enough to inspire a short biography written and published in 1833, it recounts her life and the actual words she spoke on her death bed. this biography now out of print has been republished in this book. Mrs Mary Plaskett is one of those ancestors that has inspired Stephen to continue his journey into his families past, She is a character full of love, humour and endurance during a time when life was met with hardship, inequality, pestilence, poverty and sad loss.
