Oneida community : books, pamphlets,

Community, published between 1848 and 1972; and approximately ten

Library, Syracuse University, and from holdings in several private
collections.
The community was founded by John Humphrey Noyes in 1847 in
western New York State. Based on a "Perfectionist" philosophy
that was an offshoot of Wesleyan Methodism, it is perhaps best
known for its advocacy of "free love" (sexual love and birth control
outside of marriage), and "complex marriage," including communal
living and child care. The Oneida Community was successful at
several manufacturing ventures which its members commonly owned.
The membership numbered about 300 at its height, and enjoyed support
from the local towns and farms. The community pioneered not only
new marital and family relations but also, in its manufactures,
progressive labor policies (worker night schools, piece-work,
and the eight-hour day).
