Overview and metadata sections

Abington Monthly Meeting was established in 1683 by Philadelphia Quarterly Meeting as a monthly meeting for the meetings for worship at Tacony (Frankford) and Poetquesink or Poquessing (Byberry). From 1687 to 1710, this meeting was known as "Dublin". It was transferred to Abington Quarterly Meeting in 1786. At the time of the Hicksite Separation of 1827, two branches of this monthly meeting emerged. The Orthodox branch removed to Cheltenham in 1920 and was renamed "Cheltenham Monthly Meeting" in 1944. Cheltenham is currently an active monthly meeting. The Hicksite monthly meeting, which reunited with Philadelphia Yearly Meeting (Orthodox)in 1955, is the forerunner of the current Abington Monthly Meeting.

Records of Abington Monthly Meeting and its predecessors since 1670.

Included of the Pre-Separation and Hicksite records: minutes of the men's meeting and later, of joint sessions with women; minutes of the women's meeting; registers of births and deaths; marriage and membership records through the present day; certificates of removal, disownments, etc.; epistles received and other miscellaneous papers.

The records of the Orthodox branch of Abington Monthly Meeting (later renamed Cheltenham Monthly Meeting) are described in the records of Cheltenham Monthly Meeting.

Deposit

The records of Abington Monthly Meeting (Orthodox) and its successor, Cheltenham Monthly Meeting, have been described in a separate finding aid (QM-Ph-C469). The early records of the pre-Separation Meeting of Ministers and Elders are described in that finding aid because the volumes were continued by the Orthodox branch.
