See Branches of Plymouth Brethren to explain abbreviation types (although in short: OB (& TW-P) are Halls & Chapels within the "open brethren" (although GH's (generally) maintain a separate network from the Chapels). TW/TW-N/KLC/G-A and other EB (exclusives) are "Careful" Brethren (similar to OB GH's), and BC's (Bible Churches) are (generally) independent community gatherings with early or indirect PB influence, and will (usually) not consider themselves "Brethren"). Bold print on the latter active year (e.g. 1980-2016+) denotes reasonable assumption that an assembly is still active to present day unless otherwise noted. Current data (contacts, location, meeting times, etc.) for "exclusive" assemblies unlisted by default unless specifically requested, or in the event a recent contact is deceased.

The above primer link expands on the abbreviations, and also contains introduction to this (and other) sheets within the overall History. There have been scores of branches with their own distinctive networks and strengths within the history of the PB, and many branches continue to flourish today, and while no assembly or gathering is identical to the others, each is thought to maintain a fervent desire for simplicity in gathering around the Lord Jesus, though practices and secondary doctrines may vary culturally and/or preferentially as autonomous (yet inter-dependent) local churches.

Assemblies are sorted geographically, and will, D.V., eventually have further history within. Red links on Brethrenpedia are presently undeveloped, and blue links contain data. Appreciate patience with our progress, and if you'd like to help, please contact any of the editing team, preferably via social media.
