Hide Profile

Upper Evesham Monthly Meeting was established in 1793 by Salem Quarterly Meeting out of Evesham Monthly Meeting. Its first business sessions opened in 1794. It was transferred to Haddonfield Quarterly Meeting later that same year. In 1827, after the Hicksite Separation in Philadelphia Yearly Meeting, the meeting split into Hicksite and Orthodox branches. In 1849, the Hicksite monthly meeting changed its name to "Medford Monthly Meeting". In 1956, Upper Evesham Monthly Meeting (Orthodox) merged with Medford Monthly Meeting (Hicksite) to form Medford United Monthly Meeting. In 1982, the meeting adopted the name "Medford Monthly Meeting". Medford is currently an active monthly meeting.
