Church headquarters and members voluntarily left New York in 1831 to move to Ohio. This was because there was a large increase in converts from Ohio and it made more sense to move there then have all the converts travel to New York for meetings. This is the only place they left voluntarily, they were later forced out of Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois.
