Charleton, Elizabeth

Charleton, Elizabeth, an English minister of the Society of Friends, was born at Wellington, Somersetshire, in 1793, and died in April, 1867: " Her offerings in the ministry were for the: most part brief, and not frequent; but they were characterized with much weightiness' of spirit, and earnest religious exercise." She had a truly catholic spirit, which enabled her to admire the virtues in other denominations. See (Lond.) Annual Monitor, 1868, p. 28.
