Quaker Meeting House 1758 - Randolph NJ - Quaker Meeting Houses on Waymarking.com

From their website in part: The Randolph Meeting House served as the center of religious and social life for Menham/Randolph Quaker community for over a century. The members of this community played important roles in industrialization, anti-slavery activity, the development of local government, efforts to promote equality for women, and the provision of social services and educational opportunities. When the Meeting was laid down (ended) in 1865, care of the site was informally taken over by descendants of the early Quakers and others buried in the Cemetery until it was purchased by the Friends Meeting House and Cemetery Association in 1898. It has since been maintained as a historic property open to visitors and groups interested in meeting at the site.
