William Tuke I (ca.1600-1669), a Quaker and probably the son of Robert Tuke of Scotton near York, settled in the City of York in 1629, married twice, and was a blacksmith. The family was successful in business and charity, establiahing insurance, food, and printing and publishing companies. "Without them The Retreat Mental Hospital, and two--probably three--Yorkshire Friends' Schools of the present day might never have been founded." (p. ix) Descendants and rela- tives lived in Yorkshire, Suffolk and elsewhere.
