New Mennonites, a colloquial name given locally to several schismatic groups separating from older established Mennonite bodies, both by the older group and the general public. Its counterpart designation, "Old Mennonite", was likewise used to designate the original group from which the new had broken off. Three instances of this usage have occurred: (1) the [[Reformed Mennonite Church|Reformed Mennonites]], who separated from the Lancaster (MC) Conference in Eastern [[Pennsylvania (USA)|Pennsylvania]] in 1812; (2) the [[East Pennsylvania Conference of the Mennonite Church|Oberholtzer group]] (eventually becoming the [[Eastern District Conference (Mennonite Church USA)|Eastern District]] Conference, [[General Conference Mennonite Church (GCM)|General Conference Mennonite Church]]), which broke off from the [[Franconia Mennonite Conference (Mennonite Church USA)|Franconia Conference]] (MC) in Eastern Pennsylvania in 1847-48; (3) the [[Mennonite Brethren in Christ|Mennonite Brethren in Christ]] (now Evangelical Missionary Church), who broke off from the [[Mennonite Church (MC)|Mennonite Church]] (MC) in [[Indiana (USA)|Indiana]] and [[Ontario (Canada)|Ontario]] in 1874-75. While the terms "New Mennonite" and "Old Mennonite" were fairly common in [[Pennsylvania (USA)|Pennsylvania]], [[Indiana (USA)|Indiana]], and [[Ontario (Canada)|Ontario]], they have gradually almost died out.

One conference group in Ontario, the [[New Mennonite Church of Canada West|New Mennonite Church of Canada West]], existed from 1850 to March 1875 when it merged with the [[Reforming Mennonite Society (Ontario, Canada & Indiana, USA)|Reforming Mennonite Society]] to form the United Mennonite Church. This body, after two further mergers, became the [[Mennonite Brethren in Christ|Mennonite Brethren in Christ]] in 1883.

The term "New Maneest" was sometimes used to refer to the [[Apostolic Christian Church of America|Apostolic Christian Church]] in [[Illinois (USA)|Illinois]], [[New York (USA)|New York]], and [[Ohio (State)|Ohio]] in the first part of the 20th century. The more common term in these districts was "[[New Amish|New Amish]]," although the [[Apostolic Christian Church of America|Apostolic Christian Church]] had no connection with the Amish either in Europe or America and was not a schismatic group in [[North America|North America]]. In [[Switzerland|Switzerland]] the Apostolic group has commonly been called "[[Neutäufer (Gemeinschaft Evangelisch Taufgesinnter)|Neutäufer]]," a term which historically has some justification since about half of the original group in 1832 was drawn from the Emmental (Switzerland) Mennonite (<em>Täufer</em>) congregation.
