Bio notes | Friends in Aberdeen, Scotland, met for worship in hired houses until 1672 when a visiting minister recorded his presence in the "new meeting house." Aberdeen became a monthly meeting in 1786. |
Data notes | Monthly, preparative, and worship meetings should are keyed as "meetings" because it can be difficult to differentiate in the journals. When the reference is to the building only, not the people who worshipped or held business there, it can be searched as a place, i.e. "we passed the meeting house at Richland.". |
