In 1807, Baltimore Monthly Meeting was divided into two meetings. The successor of the original Baltimore Monthly Meeting (formed in 1792) became the Baltimore Monthly Meeting for the Eastern District and continued to meet at Aisquith. The new monthly meeting was called Baltimore Monthly Meeting for the Western District, and met at Lombard Street. Tensions arose between the two over use of the burial ground. These disagreements resulted in the laying down of Eastern District by Baltimore Yearly Meeting in 1819; the former became a preparative meeting under the Western District. In 1864, Hicksite Western District officially changed its name to Baltimore Monthly Meeting. In 1889, the meeting moved to the Park Avenue Meeting House. They changed their corporate name to Baltimore Monthly Meeting, Stony Run in 1944 when they began to meet at the Friends School on North Charles Street. The Orthodox branch took the name Baltimore Monthly Meeting for the Eastern and Western Districts (Orthodox), and was informally known as Courtland after the location of its meeting house. Courtland was sold in 1867, and the Orthodox meeting moved to Eutaw Street. In 1922, this meeting moved again to the Homewood Meeting House on North Charles St and took the name Baltimore Monthly Meeting, Homewood.
