Great, thank you - we'll treat it as a monthly meeting then.
Based on the Church being a member of the Evangelical Friends Church Southwest (EFCSW or Yearly Meeting) per their website (http://ewfriends.org/our-faith-practice/), I would say they are the Monthly Meeting of that area, though they don't use the name these days.

I am trying to re-organise categories following the recommendations, but we only have the East Whittier Friends Church. Is it a monthly meeting? And if not, do we know exactly which meeting Hannah Nixon attended?
Searched for existing categories

I don't know what pushed me to add the California Quakers category; probably as an analogy with Annual Meetings, which are supposed to be categorized both under American Quakers and State Quakers see: Quaker Project Category Help.
American Quakers appears vague to me. See another conundrum placed on Isabelle's profile. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Americas

I like the two categories links, one to California Quakers and the other to American Quakers. I wasn't sure if that was frowned upon since the California Quakers is a sub-categorsy of American Quakers. Thoughts?

I changed the presentation of the entry for meeting... what do you think?
