Today the direct descendants of the Anabaptists are the Mennonites and the Hutterites. Only one section of the Mennonites today, the Old Order Amish, hold tenaciously to the old ways.

So the distant relatives of the Anabaptists today include the Baptists, the Quakers and, in one sense, the Congregationalists.
