Biographical History

The Friends Christian Union was established at Fleece Lane Friends Adult School in April 1876 and had about 100 members initially. It held monthly meetings on Sundays, after meeting for worship, and a quarterly fellowship meeting. Its rules for membership were that applicants should 'admit having experienced a change of heart' and could demonstrate evidence of this in their daily lives, and that they wished 'to unite in worship with the congregation in Fleece Lane'. The Union continued after the Adult School moved to Great Wilson Street. A Mission Room was established by the Union at Great Wilson Street. There are no minutes for the Union after 1917, and records of the Mission Room's classes end ca.1924.
