- I can find many references to the satire "Aminadab, or the Quaker's vision", but not much else. Kiwima (talk) 19:48, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
- This seems valid:
- 1836 April, The Gentleman's Magazine[1], page 395:
- […] finally, who married the very prim, starch, and conscientious young daughter of the Aminadabs; as for him, we shall close our observations with the last scene of his history.
- I'm not sure what these mean:
- 1859, Benjamin Weiss, The Song of Songs Unveiled[2]:
- From this expression it is evident that there must have been once an Aminadab, whose chariots contained and carried for a time the Ark of God, but which were afterwards bereaved of that holy treasure, and remained empty as was now her inner sanctuary.
- 2004, Kevin Hart, The Dark Gaze: Maurice Blanchot and the Sacred, page 166:
- Or we learn of an Aminadab who is a chthonic servant in one of Nathaniel Hawthorne's stories.

- The 1836 quote looks good, but the two others do not look to me like they are referring to Quakers. Aminadab is a biblical name, which is probably what the 1859 quote refers to, and the 2004 is referring to a character named Aminadab. Kiwima (talk) 06:46, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
