The latter half of the seventeenth century saw the Puritan families
of England struggle to preserve the old values in an era of
tremendous political and religious upheaval. Even non-conformist
ministers were inclined to be pessimistic about the endurance of
`godliness' - Puritan attitudes and practices - among the upper
classes. Based on a study of family papers and other primary
resources, Trevor Cliffe's study reveals that in many cases,
Puritan county families were playing a double game: outwardly in
communion with the Church, they often employed non-conformist
chaplains, and attended nonconformist meetings.
