Religious History of Camden
From George Reeser Prowell's History of Camden County, New Jersey , 1886 Newton Friend's Meeting About the year 1800, when the general opening of roads made it no longer important to be on the water, Newton Friends determined to move from their old meeting-house on Newton Creek to a place more central; and in Fourth Month, 1801, Joseph Kaighn gave them the lot of land-at the corner of the Mount Ephraim road and Mount Vernon Street , in the present city of Camden, on which, in the same year, they built the brick meetinghouse that now stands there.
