Female Evangelical Society of Montgomery (Montgomery, N.Y.)

Residents of Montgomery County, New York, formed the Female Evangelical Society of Montgomery in May 1822. The society was associated with the Goodwill Church, a Presbyterian congregation, and its first presidents included two pastors' wives: Harriet Whittlesey Condit (1794-1859), who served from 1822 to 1829, was the wife of Reverent Robert Wood (1795-1871); and Sarah M. Blain, who served from 1833 to 1841, was the wife of Reverend William Blain. Isabella Scott was the society's president from 1830-1832.
