The Oneida Community (1848-1880) was founded in 1848 by the itinerant preacher, John Humphrey Noyes, this religiously-based Perfectionist community challenged contemporary social views on property ownership, gender roles, child-rearing practices, monogamous marriage, and work. The Oneida Community’s insistence on life-long learning and determination to make all work enjoyable as they built their utopia, fostered a work ethic and well of industriousness that sustained the group for over thirty years, making them one of the most successful and longest lasting communal experiments of the 19th century. Many architectural drawings, sketches, and photographs have recently been added to the collection. Check it out here https://litsdigital.hamilton.edu/collections/oneida-community
