All of the meetings you list have separate categories that are easily found by clicking the county or city at the top of the columns. Currently, I see 106 profiles on the Philadelphia Meeting category landing page. Sources may one day be found that specify more than just Philadelphia for these profiles. An example being the Philadelphia, Western on 12th Ave (1814-1956) that merged with Central. Some sources are vague and only list attended Philadelphia. If we look at https://www.quakermeetings.com/Plone/search_display?MeetingName=&County=PHILADELPHIA&StateOrProvince=&generalSearchWord= We find 14 separate meetings in Philadelphia county. More categories can be created as we find WT profiles that need them.
