Overview and metadata sections
Flushing Monthly Meeting was reestablished in 1805, set off from New York Monthly, under Westbury Quarterly Meeting. The Orthodox branch was laid down in 1830, members attached to New York Monthly Meeting. Flushing Monthly Meeting (Hicksite) was reunited with the Orthodox branch when Westbury and New York Quarterly meetings reunited in 1957. Flushing Monthly Meeting remains active to date.
