Ausburn Towner wrote in OUR COUNTY AND ITS PEOPLE - A HISTORY OF THE VALLEY AND COUNTY OF CHEMUNG (1892) - "In the early history of the town there resided in the vicinity of the village several families known as Friends or Quakers. Their meetings were held at the house of Richard Wild on the farm since known as the Wild farm. Prominent among those belonging to this sect were Richard Wild and wife, Francis Bowman and wife, David Coddington, Benjamin Palmer, Amos Crandall, Townsend Carpenter and wife, Richardson Cornell, John Marshall and his family, Josiah Cornell, Stephen Estes, and Sally Westlake. In 1831 the Scipio Society of Friends by their trustees purchased the lot where Mrs. Shute resides and erected a building for the use of this society. This was known as the Quaker meeting-house, and was occupied by the Friends until about 1854. By removals and other causes the society diminished in numbers until but few remained. Among these were Josiah, Levi, and Samuel Marshall. The property of the society was sold to Mrs. Shute and the building was used in the construction of the dwelling where she now resides."
