Universal Friends [1]
a sect which arose in Yates County, N. Y., near the close of the last century, professing to be followers of Jemima Wilkinson (q.v.), a Quakeress, who professed to work miracles, and assumed the title of "the universal friend of mankind." The sect is now almost extinct, and the Universal Friends are sometimes called Wilkinsonians (q.v.).
