History of Mount Toby Friends Meeting

Mount Toby Friends Meeting House

Before they found their home in the Mount Toby Meeting House on the Leverett Plain, the local Friends Meeting led a peripatetic existence, with various addresses in Amherst, Pelham, and even Greenfield.  When Francis and Becky Holmes moved to Amherst in 1954 they helped to revive the Meeting, and in 1963 the group broke ground on what would be their permanent home in Leverett.

Longtime members Carol Letson and Becky Holmes tell us the story of the early days of the Friends meeting. You may view their presentation here.
