- Mary_Marshall_Dyer abstract "Mary Marshall Dyer (1780-1867), was a voice for the largely forgotten Anti-Shakerism sentiment in rural New Hampshire. In 1813 she joined the Shakers of Enfield, New Hampshire. Disappointed in her lack of a leadership role and frustrated by the constraints of Shaker life, Dyer left the community in 1815. Her husband, Joseph, remained as did all five of the Dyer children. Mary Dyer accused the Shakers of alienating her from her children. Fearing for her children's safety and left without any means of financial support, she gave public talks and wrote tracts against the Shakers in an attempt to gain public, and legislative, support for her cause. Her principal writings included A Brief Statement of the Sufferings of Mary Dyer and A Portraiture of Shakerism in 1822. In 1819, she raised a mob to storm the Enfield Shaker Community to take her children back, but this effort failed. Joseph Dyer remained devoted to the community and criticized her in strong terms, responding in print to his wife's published accusations. Four of her five children remained Shakers for life. Her son, Jerrub, left the Shakers late in life, but did not appear to have a close relationship to his mother. By the 1850s Dyer's anti-Shakerism seemed extreme, in New England at least where the Shakers were now considered \"quaint\" rather than dangerous. Mary Dyer died a largely forgotten figure in 1867.She is the earliest known example of an activist working to counter the practice of what today is commonly known as \"parental kidnapping\" or \"parental child abduction.\"However, in the early nineteenth century, a married mother with a living husband had few legal rights over her children; the husband was their legal guardian. And when he indentured their children to the Shakers, Shakers became the Dyer children's legal guardians. Thus the Shakers' holding of the children was legal under the law of that time and place. Given those laws, Mary Dyer was the parent who attempted kidnapping.Unlike others who also published books on Shaker-related parental kidnappings and lobbied for laws against such practices involving Shaker parents (Capt. Joseph Smith, 1810; Eunice Chapman, 1819), Dyer took an active part in assisting others involved in such cases and in educating the public about what she saw as the anti-family ideology and activities of the Shakers. Her activism reached from 1815 until her death in 1867.The Dyer Family:Mary Marshall Dyer (1780 - 1867)Joseph Dyer (Jun. 19, 1772 - 1858)Caleb Marshall Dyer (Aug. 25, 1800 – Jul. 18, 1863)Betsey Dyer (Jan. 6, 1802 – 1824)Orville Dyer (Jun. 15, 1804 – 1882)Jerrub Dyer (Mar. 27, 1806 – 1886)Joseph Dyer Jr. (Feb. 9, 1809 – 1840)Publications:Dyer, Mary M., A brief statement of the sufferings of Mary Dyer occasioned by the society called Shakers, 1818, William S.
