Redstone MM was comprised of several preparative meetings on the east side of the Monongahela River in southwestern Pennsylvania, primarily in Fayette County. When established, it consisted of Redstone and Providence PMs. As additional PMs were established to the south and east, two PMs were set off as Providence MM in 1817.
Redstone MM included the following meetings other than the Redstone Meeting:
Centre 1794-1817 (set off with Providence),
Connellsville 1797-1813,
Little Redstone 1787-1790 - which was renamed Providence in 1790 and set off as a separate MM in 1817,
Sandy Creek [VA/WV] 1790-1847,
Sandy Hill 1802-1834,
Sewickley 1789-1817 (set off with Providence),
and Uniontown 1791-1802. After the PM at Sandy Creek was laid down in 1847, the MM consisted only of Redstone PM.
Redstone MM suffered heavily from the divisions of 1828 and 1854. Redstone MM (Hicksite) disbanded in 1852. Due to reduced numbers, in 1855 Redstone MM was laid down, with its surviving PM attached to Westland MM; worship at Redstone continued until 1865. Redstone MM (Gurneyite) disbanded in 1866. |
