19th Century Quakers (Friends) in Iowa

Thursday 24 September at 6:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. Central Time

Quakers (Religious Society of Friends) started moving into Iowa before its statehood in 1835, establishing 83 meetings for worship before 1900. Today only 44 active meetings remain in the state. We will discuss the early Quaker settlements and spread throughout Iowa. Where did these people come from? Why did they come to Iowa? Where did these people go? What impact did these Quaker have in early Iowa history. We'll explore these questions and more in this presentation. We will also discuss the records they created, their genealogical value, and how to access them.
