Joseph Maddock (1811-1889), the great-grandson of the Joseph Maddock of Wrightsborough, Georgia, was an active and dedicated member of Elk Monthly Meeting (Orthodox) of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) in southwestern Ohio. He kept a diary over a fifty-year period, during which he witnessed (1) the bitter separation over theological differences among Midwestern Friends; (2) the work of Quakers on the Underground Railroad route through West Elkton to Levi Coffin's home in Indiana; (3) the tumultuous years of the Civil War which challenged the peace testimony of all Quakers; and (4) the changes that post-Civil War Evangelicalism brought to his beloved unprogrammed Orthodox Quaker meeting.
