    3. Looks like NJ is split between several Yearly Meetings, according to the yahoo searches I did. http://www.pym.org/index.php Philly and New York Yearly Meetings and New England Yearly Meeting. Now Montly Meetings are not a part of Yearly Meeting by location, but by their choice, some Monthly Meetings chose not to be a part of a Yearly Meeting at all. http://www.westburyquakers.org/qt/archive/files/GENE1.htm http://cpti.ws/court_docs/tax/second/brief.html these are some sites that I found that give a little bit of history on Quakers and such that you might be interested in. I am looking at my Quaker Life Magazine, Monthly Meeting pay to list their meetings in this and 6 are listed for New Jersey, but there may be more who just don't pay for the ad. And there is no Yearly Meeting Listed as NJYM so here are my thoughts for you, try to contact the closest MM to Parsippany and maybe someone there can answer where they think the Parsippany Records are Archived or try the Yearly Meetings, but I think the local MM will be better for you knowing local history and such. I would call either during the week and speak to the pastor/assistant or call on a Saturday and leave a message, so that someone can then talk to whom ever in the meeting who would be the history buff there and get back with you. Or write to them, I am sure you will get some help. Do a whitepages.com for a phone number reverse search and get addresses. Manasquan Meeting, Rte 35 at Manasauan Circle, phone is 732-701-0826. Medford Meeting, Union Street Meetinghouse, phone is 609-953-8914. Montclair Meeting, at Park St. and Gordonhurst Ave., phone is 937-744-8320. Moorestown Meeting, 118 E. Main St., phone is 856-235-1561. Plainfield Meeting, 225 Watchung Ave. & East Third Street, phone is 908-757-5736. Shrewsbury Meeting, Rte. 35 & Sycamore, phone is 732-741-4138. New England Yearly Meeting, 901 Pleasent St., Worcester, MA 01602, phone 508-754-6760, e-mail is [email protected] New York Yearly Meeting, 15 Rutherford Place, New York, NY 10003, phone is 212-673-5750, e-mail is [email protected] or [email protected] Philly is not listed in the magazine, but that could be because I think they are not a part of Friends United Meeting, fum.org, but the link above will get you in contact with them. Andrea ----- Original Message ---- From: Ann Brown <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [PABUCKS] Quaker Marriage Contract, 1853 Andrea, You seem pretty knowlageable on this subject of Quaker Records I was trying to find records for the Society of Friends in the Parsippany area of NJ in the 1750-1800. could you direct me in the right direction for that info.?
