Irish Quaker biographers have focused on ministers, the influential and wealthy; many biographies are also unstructured and selective, leaving gaps in the narrative. The current work uses the life and family of John Boles (1661-1731), a Quaker stalwart for 50 years, as a case study for the biographer, introducing the major sources and showing how they can be deployed to 'resurrect' the contributions of the anonymous Quaker majority. As the biography is developed, information is explored and analyzed to construct reliable genealogical charts; information is culled from Friends' records to document the contributions and failures of family members in the context of their Quaker meetings; land records are consulted to measure and assess their gradual accumulation of wealth and the historical context is discussed as a backdrop to their evolving socio-economic status - all topics essential for comprehensive Quaker biographies and family histories.

As a minority group, the Quakers, comprising a small number of families who intermarried only among themselves, used these ties to develop their business and industrial interests where they filled the void between the 'Ascendency' landowning classes and the bulk of the population who had been disenfranchised by the Penal Laws.The Goodbodys were such a family, coming to prominence in the 19th century when they started flour milling, later branching out. With an unusual name they effectively created their own business brand.
