Shrewsbury Monthly Meeting was established in 1672 along with Shrewsbury (Shrewsbury and Rahway) Quarterly Meeting. The monthly meeting was transferred to Philadelphia Yearly Meeting in 1682. Two branches were formed at the time of the Separation. The Orthodox monthly meeting was discontinued in 1855; its members were transferred to Rahway and Plainfield Monthly Meeting (Orthodox). The Hicksite monthly meeting was transferred to New York Yearly Meeting (Hicksite) in 1833. It merged with Squan Preparative Meeting in 1928 to form Shrewsbury and Manasquan Monthly Meeting (Hicksite). In 1955, this monthly meeting divided into Manasquan Monthly Meeting and Shrewsbury Monthly Meeting.
