I have several questions. One of my ancestors is named Robert Pyle and was born in 1660. He was a Quaker and he is listed as a "maltster" and "yeoman". Can anyone give me information for the following questions: 1.Why would he have been listed as Yeoman when most of the people during that era also owned land? 2. I had always thought Quakers would not drink until I researched the title Thanks
