Samuel Lloyd resigned from the Society of Friends and joined the Brethren.
About the year 1836 a great wave of controversy passed over English Friends. The result was that, in Manchester monthly meeting alone, " fifty heads of families, and one hundred and fifty leading members resigned their member- 1 Joseph Sturge, of Edgbaston, well known for his earnest efforts in the Anti-Slavery cause and other philanthropic work. He married, first, Eliza Cropper, of Liverpool. She died within a year after her marriage, and then his sister, Sophia Sturge, returned to her former post in her brother's house, where her warm sympathy in his efforts and unselfish hospitality made visits there vividly memorable. After her death Joseph Sturge married, secondly, Hannah, daughter of Bernard Dickenson, of Coalbrookdale.

Samuel Lloyd was one of those who left. He was baptized, and he and his son, Sampson Lloyd, attended and chiefly sustained a meeting of " Brethren," held in a room in Waterloo Street, Birmingham. This period was, no doubt, a time of peculiar trial to both husband and wife, and coloured the concluding ten or twelve years of their married life. One grand-daughter writes : " To her most intimate friends Rachel Lloyd is known to have expressed great conflict of mind, as to whether, notwithstanding her continued belief in the doctrines of Friends, it was her duty to go with her husband or not." Another says that, " for herself, Rachel Lloyd seems never to have doubted that the place she held under the banner of Quakerism was a safe place, and c the Truth ' was best served by her remaining there." Brethren were now added to the frequent guests at Farm,
