Introduction to the Sandemanian Church

Robert Sandeman

The Sandemanian church is a non-conformist protestant movement which began in Scotland in 1730’s and spread into England and to the USA. The church was founded by John Glas (1695-1773) (and is also known as the Glasite Church) but much of the teaching was developed and promoted by his son-in-law Robert Sandeman (1718-1771), who founded churches in England and in North America.

The churches were close knit communities, and many families were members of the church for several generations.

This page is part of the History of Nonconformists in London and surrounding counties, part of the TopicsTeam, a topic of the England Project.

Links to the Glasite/Sandemanian Church

The Peat family were one of the key families in the Glasite or Sandemanian Church in Scotland. The category "Peat Family and the Sandemanian Church" has been added to this profile to help identify relevant people.

The aim is to collect the names of the family members of the Peat family who were associated with the church and who joined the church in London. Not all will have become formal church members but are within 1-2 generations of a known member.

History of the Peat family

In 1771 the Dundee Glasite church had Charles Peat as a member. The Perth Church membership list in 1772 included Thomas Peat (apprentice).

Agnes Peat married Arthur Young in 1849 in Perth and then they moved to Islington where both were members of the London Sandemanian church
