	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Unitarians
		About the same time anti-Trinitarian views were spread by the scientist Joseph Priestly, pastor of a congregation at Leeds (1768-80) and later at Birmingham.
		The first organized church was King's Chapel, Boston, when the congregation, until then Episcopal, removed in 1785 all references to the Trinity from the Book of Common Prayer and in 1787 assumed an independent existence.
		Congregations were also organized at Portland and Saco (Maine) in 1792, and in 1794 Joseph Priestly began his propaganda in Pennsylvania.

	PMR: Bicentenary of Four Platinum Group Metals
		In this year too he received an inheritance of lands in and near Selby and probably some land in Wensleydale from his deceased parents, and these are likely to have provided him with an income for life (9).
		He was fortunate, or well-advised enough (perhaps by Wollaston), to publish his work speedily – because the French rivals were hotly in pursuit; indeed, he privately communicated his results to Sir Joseph Banks, his and Wollaston's mutual friend and at that time President of the Royal Society, prior to its publication.
		Thus, Joseph Priestly who discovered oxygen in 1775 regarded it as “dephlogisticated air” and still held to this belief at the time of his death in 1804.

		According to author Ian Taylor, the Lunar Society was active from about 1764 to 1800 and its prominent influence 'continued long afterwards under the banner of The Royal Society.' The group's name owed itself to the fact that members met monthly at the time of the full moon.
		The membership of this group boasted such luminaries as John Wilkinson (who made cannons), James Watt (who owed his notoriety to the steam engine), Matthew Boulton (a manufacturer), Joseph Priestly (a chemist), Josiah Wedgewood (who founded the famous pottery business), and Benjamin Franklin.
		It is with the Lunar Society that one begins to identify Erasmus' ties to Freemasonry.
