I need a list of all Watch Tower References (1879-1925) to the Brethren Churches. This includes Dunkards.
Please. Anyone?
ALSO
Many Brethren booklets refuting Russellism were published in Britain. I need a bibliographic list.

This list may not be exhaustive, but:
4/1885 ZWT, reader letter from Bristol, England states: "I joined the "Brethren," of which I am still a member, but I do not think it likely to continue long, because when they know I deny the doctrine of the Trinity, as well as eternal torment, I think my connection must cease of necessity."
The same man wrote a follow-up letter in the 11/1885 ZWT, and he had attempted to resign from the Brethren but had instead been excommunicated.
5/1/1897 ZWT quotes from "Rev. J. P. Landis, D.D., president of the Young People's Christian Union, United Brethren" in an article about a planned Protestant federation of churches.
2/15/1900 WT quotes Rev. William J. Houck, Carlisle, Pa., pastor of Grace United Brethren Church as saying: "I believe that the Biblical millennium is at hand."
7/15/1904 WT references the United Brethren as considering a federation with other denominations. The 1/15/1905 WT reports on similar developments, as does the 2/15/1906, 2/15/1920, and 9/1/1920 WT.
At the beginning of "A Great Battle in the Ecclesiastical Heavens", Rutherford states: "Certain leading clergymen, representing numerous church denominations, such as Episcopalian, Presbyterian, Baptist, Methodist, Christian, Lutheran, United Brethren, and certain Catholic bishops, priests and prelates, have united in their cause of action against ONE MAN." Later in the same booklet, it says: "For nearly three hundred years after Martin Luther’s day there was a gradual development of Protestant denominational churches. Trouble would start in one denomination; a division would result; some would withdraw, and the seceders would organize a new denomination. Each seceding class became known by some sectarian name, such as "Baptists," "Methodists," "Campbellites,’ "Congregationalists," "United Brethren,” "River Brethren," "Christ-adelphians," etc."
"The Finished Mystery", commenting on Revelation 9:13, says: "The Evangelical-Alliance-Spiritism movement began in 1848 culminating in the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America. The following great denominations which comprise 90% of the Protestant Church membership are represented in this council: ..., United Brethren in Christ."
Commenting on Revelation 14:18, it says: "In the Adventist cluster there are 6 bunches of smaller sects; in the Baptist 15; Brethren (Dunkard) 4; Plymouth Brethren 4; River Brethren 3; Catholic Apostolic 2; Churches of the Living God 3; Churches of the New Jerusalem 2; Disciples of Christ 2; Evangelical Bodies 2; Faith Associations 9; Friends 4; Latter-Day Saints 2; Lutheran 21; Scandinavian Evangelical Bodies 3; Mennonite 13; Methodist 16; Moravian 2; Pentecostal bodies 2; Presbyterian 12; Protestant Episcopal 2; Reformed 4; United Brethren 2."
Commenting on Ezekiel 8:15,16: "They typified the believers and spirit‐begotten ones of the Christian Church They were divided into about twenty‐five courses or sections and served in rotation. These typed the divisions of Christians into about twenty‐five principal denominations. In the United States these are Adventists, Baptists, Brethren (Dunkards), Catholics (Greek), Christian, Churches of Christ Scientist, Churches of God, Congregationalists, Disciples of Christ, Evangelical, Friends, German Evangelical Protestant, German Evangelical Synod, Latter Day Saints, Lutherans, Scandinavian Evangelical, Mennonites, Moravians, Methodists, Pentecostals, Presbyterians, Protestant Episcopals, Reformed, Salvation Army, and United Brethren. With their backs toward the Temple of the Lord (Jer. 2:27), these treat with contempt and scorn the little company of Godʹs true saints, rich in faith, ʺthe Temple.ʺ"
The 7/7/1920 Golden Age mentions Dunkards as a pacifist group during WWI.
