Bio notes | Established 1668, mostly subordinate to the London Yearly Meeting and composed of three Quarterly Meeting of Friends. Heavy emigration to North America depleted their ranks, and along with the dissolution of the Quarterly Meeting in 1797 the Wales Yearly Meeting was reduced to Half Yearly and came under the full care of the London Yearly Meeting. In 1832, it joined other Quarterly Meeting of Friends to form the Hereford, Worcester, and Wales General Meeting. |
