"On May 17, 1844, a portion of the Wisconsin Phalanx came to the western part of what is now the City of Ripon and started a development named Ceresco. The Phalanx had been organized in Kenosha to put into practical operation Charles Fourier's principles of social philosophy."
From 1848 to 1879 a communist community lived in Oneida, N.Y., headed John Humphrey Noyes; it practiced new forms of love relations. Although Noyes's doctrine of "Bible communism" was of a purely religious origin and did not acknowledge Fourier, several of his experiments bear a resemblence to Fourier's ideas expressed in Le Nouveau Monde Amoureux (unpublished until 1967), in particular the abolition of monogamy and the preeminence of elders in the organization of love relations.
After its dissolution in 1880, the community's assets were formed into a smithing manufacture.
