Biographical History

The Infants' Clothing Association of Philadelphia, a charitable organization of 18 to 20 women founded in 1814 by members of the Society of Friends. Originally called "The Utilian," it became commonly known as "The Antediluvian" after 1900. In the early days the members collected garments and remade used clothes for direct distribution; after 1920 they began to contribute clothing and money to organized charities, especially to the Visiting Nurse Society of Philadelphia.
