  1. Dear Sir
    I am editor of Magna, the magazine for the Friends of the National Archives. I am writing about Quaker history and have said that Charles Lloyd was imprisonned in Welshpool jail.

    I would like to ask for permission to include the picture labelled image 21 in my article if possible. Is this possible and if so how do I attribute the picture? Is it” https://foxlinks.com/the-quaker-prison-welshpool/ ?

    Please note Magna is not for sale as a commercial magazine to make a profit, it goes to the FTNA membership and to the various authors.

    with many thanks
    Dr Joan Harvey, editor, Magna
