Overview and metadata sections
London Grove Monthly Meeting was established in 1792 by Western Quarterly Meeting out of New Garden Monthly Meeting. At the time of the Hicksite Separation of 1827, the monthly meeting split into Hicksite and Orthodox branches.
London Grove Monthly Meeting (Orthodox) was discontinued in 1944, and its members were attached to New Garden Monthly Meeting (Orthodox) in West Grove, Pa.
London Grove Monthly Meeting (Hicksite) was the forerunner of the current monthly meeting.

Collection Inventory
At the time of the Separation in Philadelphia Yearly Meeting in 1827-28, pre-Separation vital records were generally retained by the branch with which the recorder was affiliated. Researchers are advised to consider vital records which span this period carefully: in many cases, the meeting without the original records may have reconstructed these records for its membership only, giving the impression that individuals in the other branch were never members.

In December 2001, the Peace and Social Concerns Committee of London Grove Friends Meeting felt called to begin a Peace Vigil in Kennett Square. The Vigil continued through at least 2016, and in 2011 Gail Newbold, Barbara Walker, and David Williamson began collecting oral histories of participants in the Vigil over the prior decade.
"A Decade of Friendly Persuasion: Celebrating Ten Years of Peace Vigils in Kennett Square" is the result, with transcripts of twelve participants. A CD was removed to the FHL A/V collection in 2017.
