The North Branch (later Northbranch) Preparative Meeting was organized in 1875/1876, part of the Walnut Creek Friends Monthly Meeting which had been formed in 1873. Property was given by D. H. and Emma Dillon for a meeting house and cemetery, in the northwest corner of the northeast quarter of section 18 of Walnut Township (Cedar Road at 78th Road). The first meeting house was a dugout, replaced by a frame meeting house in 1882. Both the church and cemetery remain active, after more than 140 years.
