Can anyone provide info on this group? We saw some in PA and IA but just in passing. We mistook them for Amish but they said they are Old Order River Brethren. We are assuming they're Pietist in origins because they're Brethren but we could be wrong.

Just did a quick search - here are two links:
www.guidedbiblestudies.com/library/old_river_breth.htm
www.geocities.com/riverbrethren/

From what I can gather they came from Anabaptist (possibly Mennonite) background... I'm as ignorant as you. There don't seem to be many of them but.
