Old Order German Baptist Brethren

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Old Order German Baptist Brethren are a small group of Brethren that split from the Old German Baptist Brethren (OGBB) in 1921. Though similar to the Old German Baptist Brethren in faith and practice, the Old Order German Baptist Brethren represent those who desired to maintain a strict adherence to tradition. When members of the OGBB began to accept automobiles, this group split from them. They are a horse and buggy Brethren group with about 100 members.

A similar horse and buggy group was founded in 1939. They are called the Old Brethren German Baptist and have under 50 members.
