| Bio notes | Construction of the Great Meeting House was begun in 1696 on the southwest corner of Second and Market Streets in Philadelphia. A second building was erected on the site in 1755. It was the center of Quaker activity in the region until the Meeting House on Mulberry Street was built in 1804. Mulberry Street hosted both the Middle District Monthly Meetings as well as the Philadelphia Yearly Meeting. It was also built on top of the city’s first Quaker burial ground. In 1854 Mulberry Street was renamed Arch Street. |
