Actually the other EPC split from the BPC, which had split from the OPC (itself a split from from the original PCUSA - which should not be confused with the current PC(USA), a different body). That EPC eventually merged with the PCA. The EPC of this article is not the same as the EPC that split from BPC.

wideawake: Basically, the Presbyterians in the US were split between the PCUS (mostly Southerners) and the UPCUSA (mostly Northerners). The conservatives split from the PCUS in 1974 forming the PCA. Then, in 1981, when the merger between the PCUS and the UPCUSA was in motion, the conservatives split from the UPCUSA and formed the EPC.

Cronos: And the original PCUSA split into the CPC, PCUS and OPC. The OPC broke into the BPC and I thought the EPC, while the CPC got split into the CPC and the CPCA and the UCPA and some from the CPC rejoined the original PCUSA before it split.

Ah, I was a bit confused, I thought the EPC mentioned here was the EPC of the BPC after it came from the OPC from the PCUSA before that became the PCUS and then remerged to become the PCUSA and PCA.
