Notable Muggletonian writers include Laurence Clarkson (1615 - 1667) an itinerant preacher born in Preston, Lancashire; John Saddington (1634? - 1679) a London sugar merchant, originally from Arnesby, Leicestershire; Thomas Tomkinson (1631 - 1710) a Staffordshire yeoman farmer who moved to London in the 1680s; and Isaac Frost (1793 - 1858) and Joseph Frost (1791 - 1857), brothers who ran the family metallurgy business in Clerkenwell, London.
Tomkinson's most original contribution to Muggletonian belief was to adapt the theory of 'the seed of the serpent and the seed of the woman', which John Reeve had expounded in A Divine Looking-Glass, to produce a doctrine of predestination that avoided the perceived pessimism of Calvin's model.

The writer of Jude knows and esteems the Book of Enoch even though this work was lost in Tomkinson's day.
