Like the Olivers, the Fosters aligned with the Wilburite (Conservative) branch of the Society of Friends in Massachusetts. The Fosters were close friends of the William T.

The Fosters and Olivers were active members of Nantucket Monthly Meeting (Otisite), and Miriam and Lucille Oliver, the donors, are distantly related.
