In Philadelphia, Friends remained divided between Orthodox and Hicksite Yearly Meetings. The Orthodox Yearly Meeting, however, refused to be drawn into any further splits, succeeding by the simple expedient of not formally recognizing any other Orthodox Yearly Meeting, whether Gurneyite or Wilburite. The Philadelphia Yearly Meeting was finally reunited in 1955. Evangelical Yearly Meetings in the U.S. are based in Ohio, Kansas, the Rocky Mountain States, and along the Pacific coast, although there are also a few Evangelical Friends' churches scattered elsewhere in the country. The above continues to be a working draft.
All comments are welcome.
