Hicksite Friends Meetinghouse, 1150 North A Street, Richmond, Wayne County, IN
Summary
Significance: The Hicksite Friends, the largest and most influential religious sect in nineteenth-century Richmond, acquired a plot of land from Charles W. Starr in 1864. By the following year they had erected this symmetrical cross-gable brick building. In keeping with Quaker philosophy, stylistic details are simple and modified to blend with the fabric. Today, the structure is part of the Starr Historic District and has been sensitively converted to a museum by the county historical society.
