The Yearly Meeting which has for many years met at Fifteenth Street meeting house, New York City, is herein called Fifteenth Street Yearly Meeting, and for a short title is referred to as "Hicksite", while the Yearly Meeting that has met for many years (when in New York City ) at Twentieth Street meeting house, is herein called Twentieth Street Yearly Meeting, and for short title "Orthodox". These titles are used for con- venience and clearness, and must not be considered as reflecting in any way on either branch of the Society.
This catalogue takes up, first the Yearly Meeting, with its committees and miscellaneous affairs, then the Quarterly Meeting, then the Monthly Meetings, each Monthly Meeting including the Preparative Meetings consti- tuting it. In each list it is intended to include all known records of each meeting down to the Separation of 1828, then the records of the Fif- teenth Street branch of the meeting since that date, followed, in each case, by the records of the Twentieth Street branch, of the same meeting from 1828, distinguished by a different type. The reason for this arrangement is that after eleven years work was embodied in the catalogue for Fifteen- th Street Yearly Meeting, it did not seem worth while to duplicate a large part of that in a separate catalogue of Twentieth Street Yearly Meeting.

The genesis of Quakerisn 'n this Province was the arrival of the ship "Woodhouse" at Nieuw Amsterdam, on the 1st of the Sixth Month, called August, 1657.
A bend of earnest Quakers, intent on getting to New England, could get no passage from the nother country owing to the high fines to which Captains of vessels were subject who carriec Quakers. Robert Fowler, himself e ministering Friend, having a small vessel nearly finished for the coastwise trade, offered it to his fellow-religionists. How they crossed the stormy Atlantic in the little craft can never be told more graphically then in the brief account written by Robert Fowler himself and printed in Bowden's History of Friends, vol. 1, p. 63. They were carried too for south for the Massachusetts colonies and so landes at New Amsterdam.
Never had ship brought so important and troublesome & carro to the little Dutch town. . The Quakers sprend through Long Island and New England, making many convincements, and creating so favorable an impression on the inhabitants of the English towns of Long Island thet the whippings, japris- onments and banishments promptly inflicted on these Quakers ty Governor Stuyvesant, and especially his order forbidding any to lodre or feed Quakers, caused the solid substantiel yeomen of Flushing, headed by their Town Clerk, to sign & Remonstrance, December 27, 1657, in which they made it clear that though not themselves Qurkers, they could find nothing in their hearts against them and so could do no rets against them.
Friends increased rapidly and probably hod meetings for worship with more or less regularity from 1057 in Flushing, Oysterbay, Grovesend ond other places. After John Bonne's house was built at Flushing, in 1661, a meeting was regularly held there until the Flushing meeting house was built, in 1694. Meetings for Discipline were organized carly, probably before 1665, but no minutes were kept or written until the 23rd of 3d Month 1671, when at the Half Teor's Meeting at Oysterbay, the earliest minute in America was written. Marriages, however, were recorded as early as 1663.
The object of this work is to give the name of every meeting that at any time in its history was a part of New York Yearly Meeting of either branch, giving the location in Township and County, the date at which the meeting for worship was allowed, the date of establishing a meeting for Discipline; and its leter vicissitudes, together with a descriptive list of its records.
Unless otherwise indicated, the records herein enumerated ere at Fifteenth Street Yeeting House, corner of Rutherfurd Place, New York City, in the following fireproof safes, one belonging to Fifteenth Street Monthly Meeting, one to Twentieth Street Yearly Meeting, the others to Fifteenth Street Yearly Meeting.

First those on Long Island, then those in New Jersey, then those east of the Hudson, going north into Canada, then those west of the Hudson, then taking those through the State to its Western boundary, then those along the St. Lawrence, then those through Canada, going west, and finally those in Michigan.
This catalogue includes 17 Quarterly Meetings, 63 Monthly Meetings, Preparative Meetings, and a total of 212 meetings for worship.
NEW YORK YEARLY MEETING. (H) Set off from New England Yearly Meeting by the following minute:
"At a Generall Yearly meeting at ye house of Walter Newberrys in Rhoad Island ye: 14th: daye of ye: 4th mo; 1695 - It is also Agreed yt ye meeting at Longe Island shall Bee From this time a Yearely meeting and yt John Bowne & John Rodman Shall take Ceare to (sic.) Receive all Such papers as Shall Come ye yearly meeting in Long Island (sic. ) & Corespond with Friends Appoynted in London
The Second Daye follow- ing: ye Epistle to Friends was Red & ordered to bee Sent: Soe ye meeting Con- cluded Refering to ye next yearely meet- ing."
The first session was on 3rd Ko. (May) 23, 1636, and it has met every year since until recently in the latter part of the same month (called 5th Mo. since the change from Old Style to New in 1752. )
By the following minutes of the Yearly Meeting in 1746, Westbury Quart- erly Meeting seems to have been held three times in the year, and the Yearly Meeting took the place of the fourth Quarter.
"Whereas this meeting is now concluded to be an Yearly Meeting & not a Quarterly One it is Thought Proper that the order of the State of Meetings or anything Else from the Monthly Meetings of Flushing & Westbury be first Carryed into the Quarterly Meeting at Westbury in the Twelfth Month & from thence Recommended unto this meeting until Friends see cause to Order it Otherways & that the order shall always come in writing."
It was generally called the "Yearly Meeting held at Flushing" till 1777, the "Yearly Meeting held at Westbury" 1778 to 1793, the "Yearly Meeting held
- 5 -
in the City of New York" 1794-1893 when the name of Fifteenth Street Yearly Meet- ing wos changed to its present form, as above. In 1757 it was proposed to join this Yonrly Meeting to that of Philadelphia. It was referred down to each N.M. and in 1758 it was decided best to let it remain as it was. It comprised at first but the one Quarterly Meeting, now called Westbury, and the Monthly Meet- ings of Flushing and Westbury. Other Quarter-Meetings were established as fol- lows: Purchase 1745, Nine Partners 1783, Easton 1793, Stanford 1800, Ferrisburch 1810, Canada (Half Year's ) 1810, Duanesburg 1813, Saratoga 1815, Cornwall 1816, Scipio 1825.
In 1833 Shrewsbury Quarterly "esting (H) Was transferred to this from Phila- delphia Yoarly Meeting. In 1834 Genesee Yearly Meeting (E) was set off, with the Quarterly Meeting of Farmington in Western New York, Scipio in Central New York and Canada Half Year's Meeting. Joint sessions adopted 1903.
ORTHODOX BRANCH. Additional Quarterly Meetings were established as follows: Leray 1830, West Lake 1841, Felham 1841,. Adrian, in Michigan, 1843. The meetings in Central and Western New York are still included, but Canada Yearly Meeting was set off in 1867 with the Quarterly Fertings of West Lake, Yonge Street and Pel- ham. Adrian Quarterly Testing was transferred to Chio Yearly Meeting in 1869. The name was changed to "New York Yearly Meeting" in 1877. Joint sessions adopt- ed 1886 . It now (1926) meets usually in Poughkeepsie, sometimes in Glens Falls and rarely in New York. The movement to have the Y.". meet "in a more central situation" as Friends of Canada, l'ichigan and Western N. Y. could not get to N. Y. was started in Scipio V.T., 12th Xo. 1834,
NEW YORK YEARLY MEETING :
MINUTES OF PET'S VEERTIG. (H) The first session, 3rd month (Way) 29, 1696 -1720 inclusive, (except for 1715, worn away at front of volume 1003) are record- ed in Vols. 1, 2 and 3 of the Minutes of Flushing (now New York) M.M. (See New York !'.". list. ) (1001 El) 1721-45 inclusive, missing.
At Q.V. at Flushing 9th "o. 29th, 1719.
"This meeting hath opwointed that all the minits that hath bene taken in all Our Quarterly meetings & Yearly meeting Ever sence they have bene Established may be Transcribed in a book for that purpose and that Hugh Cowperthwait, Samuel Bown, Edward Burling & Jno. Rodman are appointed to take care theiror." (This was probably done and the volume very likely was continued in use till 1745. This volume may possibly vet be found, and would be .of great historical interest. )
Report of Committee at Yearly Meeting 1778.
"We the Committee appointed to Collect the Minutes of the Yearly Meeting as far back as may be & also to extract such Minutes as was intended to operate as discipline, Do report that we have made inquiry & find no other minutes of the yearly Necting than what is Contained in a folio bound Bock now in Ese and which . begins with the Yearly Footing held in 1746."
Representative Com. 10. 1. 1866. Com. on ancient records states that the records named (as we now, (1926) have them) are in the library of N.Y. Meeting house ,
"A portion of the records, of the most ancient Yearly and Quart-
- 6 -
erly Meeting held on Long Island, say from 1720 onwards, appears to have been in the possession of the Bowne family of Flushing, from a very early period untill within about 15 years, about which time we are informed that the present clerk of the Yearly Meet- ing held in 20th Street borrowed them, and it may not be necess- ary to seek further for them."
This was, apparently, an error, and it was the minutes 1671-1703 that were found in the Bowne house by william Wood, clerk, of (0) Y. M.
