Wodrow Society

The Wodrow Society, established in Edinburgh in 1841, was a society 'for the publication of the works of the fathers and early writers of the Reformed Church of Scotland'.[1]

The society, established in May 1841,[2] was named after Robert Wodrow, the historian of the Covenanters. It ceased to publish in 1851.[1]
