Genesee Yearly Meeting of Friends
Variant namesBiographical notes:
In 1834, New York Yearly Meeting (Hicksite) set off Genesee Yearly Meeting. The new yearly meeting included Farmington and Scipio Quarterly Meetings in New York State as well as Upper Canada and Michigan. At the beginning, yearly meeting sessions were held in Farmington, New York; after 1860, these sessions were held alternately at Farmington and in Ontario. In 1928, Genesee began to meet in joint session with Canada Yearly Meeting. Genesee Yearly Meeting continued as a transnational body until after its merger with the Orthodox and Conservative branches as Canadian Yearly Meeting in 1955. In 1958, Farmington Half Yearly Meeting was transferred to New York Yearly Meeting.
