Amish? Research also Anababtist, Mennonite. About 1840 start, loosely German protestants beleiving in adult babtism, selfsufficiency so didn't have to deal much with 'others/government',mutual assistance (in some cases communal ownership of land- see also 'Amana colonies'). Sometimes refered to as 'plain people'. Horse equipment now seems obsolete- but small farming with horse was still practiced by other than Amish 1970s in some places. Farm practice is low capital, low debt, shared high labor- it still works in enough places for them to survive bad times. Green county, Wisconsin has some Amish families, horse drawn buggy shows up at New Glarus grocery store, Amish and old Swiesser families communicate, Catholic and Lutheran churchs sometimes annoyed by alternative example. Amish congregation makes decisions- not the pope. RN
