The churches were close knit communities, and many families were members of the church for several generations.
The London church included notables such as Michael Faraday. The church has now died out.

Sandemanian Families
Many of the members of the London Church came from a small number of families, perhaps between 10-12 families. It is not easy to be clear who were members, because the church records have not been published, although some documents are available.
Within the key Sandemanian families, some became church members, others attended the church without formally declaring their faith and so were not members. Many people married within the church, and this continued for up to 5 generations.
History of the Baynes family
John Baynes (1740-abt.1814) was born and died in Yorkshire. He married Grace Emblem in Kirby Lonsdale in 1762 and died in 1741. There was a Sandemanian church in Kirkby Lonsdale, and he may have been a member, which gave his son some contacts in the church in London when he moved south.
James Baynes (1766-1837) was born in Kirkby Lonsdale, and married Mary Maud Mann (unsourced) about 1785. He was a notable artist and both of them were members of the London Sandemanian Church
