There was a Plymouth Brethren meeting room, initially with the Darbyites, and after 1909, informally, with the Tunbridge Wells branch of the so-called Exclusive Brethren, in Talmage, Kansas from around 1905 1900 thru 1933. One of the correspondents, [[Judson Alden Sr.]] (1835-1923) is credited as such from 1908 until his death. The first correspondents are listed as G.W. Miller, and J.T. Moore, in 1905, see the correspondent section for a fuller list.
It can be presumed that the Talmage meeting was started around 1894, with Judson Alden and Alexander Martin as correspondents, in [[Manchester Meeting Room, KS|Manchester]], of which, they ceased to meet in Manchester by 1903, and thus moved in 1904-1905 to Talmage. Judson's widow, Laura, and their daughter Grace were the final correspondents in 1933, with none listed by 1944, with the next volume of contacts. Grace then served as sole correspondent for a preaching point at [[Abilene Meeting Room, KS|Abilene]], from at least 1944 thru 1973, as the other area assemblies had closed by that point. There was also a similar meeting 1889-1933 in [[Chapman Meeting Room, KS|Chapman]].
Philip was born in Brussels, Ontario, Canada. Philip and Gertrude's daughter-in-law, May Jury Botz's family was also involved in a similar type meeting at the Newbern church, a split from nearby [[Grace and Truth Gospel Chapel, KS|Grace and Truth Gospel Hall]], an Open Brethren branch that existed from before 1918 to 2010, later known as the Gospel Chapel, of which hived a similar type Brethren meeting in Elm Springs from 1938-1977, as well as bible studies in Salina in the 1960's that resulted in [[Sunset Bible Chapel, KS|Sunset Bible Chapel]], which still exists to this day.
