Talk:Great Friends Meeting House

NHL/NRHP status?
This seems to be a part of the Newport Historic District, which is a National Historic Landmark. However, I was surprised, given the age of this building, that I can find no evidence that it is itself even on the National Register of Historic Places (as it says also in the Newport Historic District article). I tried many variations of the name on this site with no result found.--BillFlis (talk) 12:07, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Oldest meeting house in North America?
This may be the oldest surviving Quaker meeting house in North America. It is older than any remaining in Philadelphia (the "Quaker City") by 70+ years. Several are known to have been built earlier but have not survived. If this can be established, it would be worth mentioning.--BillFlis (talk) 12:07, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Old Quaker Meeting House (Flushing, Queens), built in 1694 in New York, is the oldest, I believe. I'm not sure why the Great Friends Meeting house is not listed on the register, I thought it was. I may have made a mistake. Swampyank (talk) 14:22, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
