Overview and metadata sections
An indulged meeting known as "Colerain" was established in 1828 by Fallowfield Monthly Meeting (Hicksite). In 1839, the meeting for worship and preparative meeting were established by Western Quarterly Meeting; the name of this meeting was changed to "Oxford" at this time. In 1842, the Oxford meetings were transferred to Pennsgrove Monthly Meeting. In 1867, the name of this meeting was changed to "Homeville." The preparative meeting and meeting for worship at Homeville were discontinued in 1917; their members were attached to Pennsgrove Monthly Meeting.
