In 1694 Amos travelled with John Banks, and in 1716 was a petitioner for justice to be done to Quakers in Dublin. Also in 1716 Thomas Story lodged in Dublin with Amos. Amos Strettell lost his capital, and was helped by Friends to the extent of 1,000.
Amos Strettel made a purchase of 5,000 acres of land in Pennsylvania, but there is no evidence to show thaat he ever came to this country; he also held large tracts of land in New Jersey. In 1688, he and John Burnyeat published a small book called "The Innocency of the Christian Quakers Manifested,: etc. (Immigration of Irish Quakers into Pennsylvania 1682-1750 by Albert Cook Myers, M.
