Abstract:
Although long associated with Guilford and Alamance Counties, Quakers first started meeting in Perquimans County, the result of a visit from the Society's founder, George Fox, in November 1672. At one time Quakers met in seven meeting houses in the county. Today two remain. Piney Woods Friends Meeting, founded in 1794, is the oldest continuous meeting place for religious worship in the state.
