The Shakers, a Protestant religious denomination officially called The United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing, originated in Manchester, England in 1747, and grew through the 1800's to 26 communities, with a peak of between 4,000 and 5,000 members in the 1860's, fading to only a final few by 2000.
