"The controversy brewed for over ten years until 1909--a time of rapid social change--when cars, telephones, and electricty were making their debut. The strict shunning of members who joined progressive Amish-Mennonite churches kindled the ire of some members of the Amish church... In the fall of 1909, about thirty-five Amish families who had been disturbed by the harz incident began holding separate services every three or four weeks for singing and Bible reading. The group petitioed he bishops for a more lenient use of the ban and announced their intention 'to withdraw' if the request was not granted. Meeting on 12 October 1909, the Amish bishops denied their request. The splinter group, of some eigthy-five people, represented about one-fifth of Amish membership at the time. The new group held its first worship services in February 1910... The progressive faction was eventualy dubbed the Peachy church... "

"The second division occurred in 1910, as cars, telephones, electricity, and mechanized farm equipment were beginning to revolutionize the social landscape of rural America. Disturbed by a strict interpretation of shunning, a liberal faction formed an independent group, eventually konwn as the Peachy church. Although very similar to the Old Order Amish in dres and outlook, the group embraced evangelical religious expressions (such as Sunday school) and tolerated technological innovations (such as telephones, electricy, tractors, and, eventually cars). Today this groupi saffiliated with the Beachy Amish church. "

"In 1950 the Peachy church became affiliated with a larger national body, the Beachy Amish church. Today six congregations are affiliated with the Beach Amish church in Lancaster County. They conduct their worship services in English, hold Sunday school, drive cars, and use electricity. The men wear an abbreviated beard, and members dress in plain garbs, although not as plain as that of the Old Order Amish. "

Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press (1980); pg. 282, 287.	"...Mifflin County in central Pennsylvania. This region encompasses Kishacoquillas Valley..., which has in it 12 Amish-related groups. All originated in whole or in part among the Amish who came to this region from southeastern Pennsylvania as early as 1791... The Beachy Church (Valley View) or 'Speicher' group, named after bishop Jesse Speicher, but traditionally known as the 'Zook' church, was formed in 1911 as a progressive offshoot of the Peachey Amish. When a seceding group in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, requested ministerial help from Mifflin County and John B. Zook came to their assistance, the division was initiated. Thus a division spread form one settlement to another in this instance. "

"Another group, called Beachy Amish, emerged from the Old Order in 1927... Not many years passed before other Amish districts were following Beachy's example... In Lancaster County the 'John A. Stoltzfus Church' or the 'Weaverton Amish' began to affiliate with the Beachy Amish group. In Indiana the group was called the 'Burkholder Amish.' Although the present ninety or more congregations of this affiliation are not organized into a formal conference they function as a separately organized denomination. The use of the German language has given way to English in worship services, singing is increasingly four-part, and in dress and other customs the gap between the Old Order Amish and the Beachy's is widening.
