PRKKACE. 


WrrnOUT  knowing  originnlly  that  there  were  any  establislied  rules  governing  Genealogy  or 
(lie  line  of  descent,  niy  lirotlier  Jacob  and  I  started  out  yeai's  ago  to  collect  tlie  Family 
Record  of  our  numerous  clan,  for  our  own  gratilicalion,  and  the  wish  to  know  from  whom  we 
were  descended,  without  having  the  r(>motest  idea  that  such  research  would  ever  result  in  a  book. 

Because  of  the  indifference  of  so  many  wlio  were  appealed  to  for  information — they  "caring 
for  none  of  these  things" — our  efforts  at  collecting  records  soon  subsided,  and  for  a  score  of  years 
remained  dormant,  in  the  meantime,  my  brother  removed  to  the  west,  and  in  1871,  by  a  strange 
providence,  found  a  lost  branch  of  our  fimily,  that  had  been  missing  for  over  forty  years.  The  ex- 
citement caused  by  this  interesting  circumstance  fairly  galvanized  me,  and  I  di'lermined  to  "try,  try 
again,"  my  aim  being  to  collect  all  records  as  far  back  as  Orand-parents,  paternal  and  matfrnal. 
The  result  appears  in  the  two  Genealogical  Trees. 

The  data  collected  was  copious,  and  seemed  much  too  valu;d)le  lo  be  lost,  hence  a  book  was 
suggested  to  my  mind,  as  the  most  suitable  way  lA'  preserving  it  for  posterity.  My  aim  has  been 
facts,  plainly  slated  for  all  who  are  intereste<l. 

Photography  being  a  recent  art,  liut  few  old  and  rare  pictures  were  available;  time  will,  how- 
ever, soon  make  the  living  ones  rare.  Many  persons  delayed  in  seniling  in  their  Photo's,  which  has 
^e/iused  some  derangement.  "To  err  is  human."  If  dales  or  names  are  wrong,  let  each  owner  of 
the  book  correct  them  promptly  and  neatly.  The  indux  to  thi>  names  under  the  Photo's  is  to  aid 
the  reader  to  certain  identity;  being  written  in  a  small  hand,  Ihey  are  not  brought  out  clearly.  The 
reader  will  understand  how  lo  accept  the  editor's  porlrailinv  of  (he  writer. 

I  am  greatly  indebted  to  kindred  far  and  near,  lor  urbanily  and  promptness  in  aiding  my  efforts 
in  the  collecli(jn  of  a  record  so  full  and  com|)lcle.  1  would  make  special  mention  of  cousin  Maggie 
,1.  Pyle,  of  Ivennett  Square,  who  collected  many  records,  and  wrote  out  in  detail  the  first  form  of 
the  McFarlan-Heald  Genealogy;  Gilbert  Cope,  of  West  Chester,  Genealogist;  Dr.  Geo.  Smith,  of 
Djrhy,  the  historian  of  Delaware  County;  \Vm.  H.  Hollingsworth,  deceased,  of  Paltimore,  Md.;

.Milliman,  of  Logan,  Iowa;  cousin  Pdilh  Newlin,  of  \Vilmin^'t(jn,  Delaware;  Allen  Gawlhrop,  the 
artist  of  the  "Trees  and  Home  Views,"  of  Wilmiti^dnn,  Del.;  Lewis  Marshall  and  his  wife,  (the 
editor)  of  iXorliibrook,  for  valuable  services;  Dr.  Pusey  lleald,  of  Wilminghju,  Del.;  Albert  Cum- 
mins, of  Frankland,  Del.;  L  P.  McFarlan,  and  his  daughter  hla,  of  Kennett ;  Jacob  Painter, 
deceased,  of  Delaware  County,  Pa.;  Samuel  MarUn,  of  Kennett  S(iuare;  Thomas  F.  Seal,  of  Union- 
ville,  Chester  County,  Pa.;  lo  many  Friend's  Records;  The  Historical  Society  of  Penn'a,  in  Pliila.; 
and  many  more  good,  hearty  helpers,  we  say,  a  thousand  thanks!  Conscious  of  many  imjier- 
feclions,  ]  crave  the  forbearance  of  our  numerous  and  increasing  poslerily  for  whom  I  have  spent 
many  weary  hours  in  the  preparation  of  this  book.

INTRODUCTION. 


ABOUT  one-third  of  a  century  ago,  I  received  a  letter  from  my  brotlier  Cyrus  Stern,  of  Wil- 
inin^'lon,  Delaware,  sayinj,'  lie  would  like  to  get  up  a  record  of  the  Stern  Family,  fur  three 
or  four  generations,  and  asking  my  assistance  in  the  enterprise.  I  was  very  proud  of  his  ambition, 
and  consented  to  render  any  assistance  in  my  power.  But  fearing  his  enthusiasm  might  bring  dis- 
api)oiiilmont  ui)on  himself,  I  ventured  (wisely  as  I  tliought)  to  caution  him  not  to  expect  that  we 
might  gel  (lie  work  accomplished  that  year  (18.J1),  Indeed,  my  idea  was  at  that  time,  that  at  least 
two  or  three  years  might  elapse  before  the  work  could  be  finished.  A  whole  generation  of  men 
have  passed  away  since  then.  I  may  say,  that  for  my  own  [lart,  1  soon  tired  out  and  gave  up,  but 
continued  to  hope  that  my  brother  would  go  on,  as  1  most  heartily  a|iproved  of  the  work.  In  all 
that  long  time,  lie  (although  engaged  in  business  as  clothier)  has  nev(M-  lost  sight  of  iiis  favorite 
[iroject.  And  by  indomitable  energy  and  industry,  has  almost  alone,  collected  and  prepared  this 
valuable  record  of  our  kindred. 

The  amount  of  labor  in  a  work  of  this  kind  can  scarcely  be  appreciated  by  one  who  is  not  in 
some  way  connected  with  ils  preparalion.  lis  value  needs  no  elucidation — il  sjieaks  for  itself.  To 
expect  that  a  genealogist  can  ever  be  paid  for  his  labor  in  dollars  and  cents,  is  utopian.  Very  f(»w, 
indeed,  are  found  willing  to  saerilice  themselves  Ibr  the  pleasure  of  posli'rify.  I  look  U[)on  the 
work  of  a  genealogist  as  purely  a  labor  of  love,  worthy  of  an  imperishable  monumenl.

THE  McFARLAN-HEALD  ANCESTRY. 


HENRY  CORNISH.     (1685.) 


I'lsiiop  IUhn'kt,  wlio  \v;is  rotompoi-ary  willi 
C.nvvuiU,  Chailrs  11,  and  .Jaiiics  11  of  Englainl, 
nnil  who  wrnlt.  '"i'lie  llisli,iy  of  His  Own 
Times,"  was  a  citizen  of  London  Iwo  liundred 
years  ago,  wln-n  riiiurch  and  State,  politics  and 
reli^'ion,  were  very  inucli  intermingled,  says  in 
1679;  "There  was  this  year  at  niid-sunuiier  a 
new  practice  begun  in  the  city  of  London  tliat 
produced  vi'ry  ill  consequences.  The  city  of 
London  has  hy  charter  the  shrivalry  of  Middle- 
sex, as  well  as  the  city,  and  the  two  sherilTs 
were  to  he  chosen  on  mid-sunitner  day.  Hut 
the  cinnnion  method  had  been  for  tlie  Lord 
Mayor  to  name  one  of  the  sherilfs,  by  drinking 
to  liirn  on  a  public  occasion  ;  arnl  that  nomina- 
tion was  coiiimonly  coiilirmiMl   by   llie  comuKjn 

lived,  made  il  a  charge  of  about  x'Ann\  a  year; 
so  they  took  little  care  about  it,  bul  only  lu  lind 
men  that  would  l)ear  (he  charge,  which  recom- 
mended to  be  chosen  alderman  upon  Ihe^  next 
vacancy,  and  to  rise  up  according  to  their  staml- 
ing  to  the  Mayoi'ality,  which  generally  went  in 
course  to  the  senior  alderman.  Wlien  a  per- 
son was  set  U|)  to  be  sliei-iff  thai  would  not 
serve,  he  compounded  the  mailer  for  .ClOO 
fine.  All  juries  were  returned  by  the  sheriffs, 
hilt  they  i:ommonly  left  that  wholly  in  the  hands 
of  the  under-sheriffs  ;  so  it  was  now  pretended 
lliat  it  was  necessary  to  look  a  little  more  care- 
Uilly  after  this  matter.     The  under-sherills   were 


generally  attorneys,  and  might  be  easily  bi-ought 
under  the  management  of  the  court  ;  so  it  was 
proposed  that  the  sheriffs  should  he  chosen  with 
more  care,  not  so  much  Ihat  lliey  might  keep 
good  tables,  as  that  lliey  sliould  leturn  good  Ja- 
I'ii's.  The  person  to  whom  the  jiresent  ma)'or 
had  drunk  was  set  aside,  and  Bethel  .uid  •  Car- 
nisli'  were  chosen  for  the  ensuing  year.     Lclhel 


was  a  man  of  kno\ 


d   had 


judicious  Look  of  Ihe  Interest  of  I'rinces;  but 
as  lie  was  a  known  republican  in  principle,  so  he 
was  a  sullen,  willful  man,  and  turned  from  the 
ordinary  way  of  sheriff's  living,  into  the  extreme 
of  sordidness,  wdiich  was  very  unacceptable  to 
the  body  of  citizens,  and  proved  a  great  pivju- 
dice  to  the  |iarfy. 

"  Corni-b,  the  other  sheriri;  was  a  plain,  warm, 
honest  man,  ami  lived  very  nobly  all  his  year. 
The  court  was  very  jealous  of  this,  and  under- 
stood il  to  be  done  on  design  to  pack  juries,  so 
Ihat  the  pally  should  be  always  safe,  whatever 
Ihey  nnght  engage  in.  11  was  said  Ihat  the  King 
would  not  have  common  ju-tiee  done  him  here- 
after aeain.-t  any  of  them,  how  guilty  soever. 
The  setting  up  Leihi'l  gave  a  great  color  to  this 
jealousy,  for  it  was  said  he  had  expressed  his 
apiiroving  Ihe  tale  King's  death  in  very  indecent 
terms. 

"In  lOSI  Filzharris,  an  Irish  I'apist,  was  taken 
up  for  libi'lling  tlie  King  and  his  family  in  a  ma- 
licious manner.  Cornish,  the  sheriff,  going  to 
see  him,  lie  desired  he  ^voiild  bring  him  a  jus-

lice  of  peace,  tor  he  could  make  a  great  dis- 
covery of  tlie  plot,  far  beyond  all  that  was  yet 
known.  Cornish,  in  the  simplicity  of  his  heart, 
went  and  acquainted  the  King  with  this,  for 
which  he  was  mucli  blamed  ;  for  it  was  said 
jjy  Ihis  means  that  discovery  might  have  been 
slopt ;  but  his  going  first  with  it  to  the  Iving 
proved  afterwards  a  great  hapijiness  both  to 
hinjself  and  many  others." 

After  the  Reformation  the  English  nation  was 
the  bulwark  of  Protestantism  ;  she  needed  the 
support  of  her  Protestant  subjects,  and  they 
needed  her  protection.  Both  sides  had  much 
to  give  up.  A  union  was  eU'ecled  and  the  re- 
sult was,  Thi  Church  of  EnijlmuJ.  The  ICing 
was  by  this  the  head  of  the  Church.  This 
union  of  Church  and  State  still  continues. 
Tories  look  sides  with  the  King  and  Court, 
Whigs  opposed.  King  Charles  II  was  a  con- 
cealed Papist,  while  his  brother,  James,  heir  to 
the  throne,  was  an  avowed  one.  Parliament  and 
the  King  were  often  at  variance,  party  spirit  was 
high,  and  plots  and  conspiracies  arose.  Among 
others,  the  Bye  House  Plot  was  discovered  in 
the  early  part  of  1G83,  the  object  being  the  as- 
sassination of  the  King  and  his  brother  James. 
Some  of  the  accused  fled,  some  lost  their  lives, 
some  went  to  prison.  Two  men,  Goodenough 
and  Rumsey,  will  turn  up  again. 

Charles  11  died  on  the  6th  of  Feb.,  1685.  Ilis 
brother  James  was  proclaimed  King  the  same 
day,  and  was  crowned  April  3d,  as  James  11.* 
Monmouth's  Rebellion  followed,  June  the  lltli. 
II  was  speedily  crushed,  and  Monmouth  behead- 
ed on  Tower  Mill,  July  15th,  1685.  Tiiose  wiio 
had  espoused  his  cause,  were  butchered  by  the 
military,  or  the  inhuman  Judge  Jeflerys,  under 
the  forms  of  law  known  as  "The  Bloody  Assizes." 
Jelt'erys  returned  from  his  slaughter  in  the  west  to 
Windsor  for  liis  reward.  The  King  had  watched 
him  with  delight,  and  gave  him  the  great  sea!  of 
Kngland,  as  his  reward  for  faithtul  services  to  the 
Crown,  tie  was  also  created  a  Baron  and  Peer 
of  ICngland.

Bishop  Burnet  again  says  :  (Vol.  1  p.  650  & 
651.)  "  The  King  apprehended  that  many  of  the 
prisoners  had  got  into  London,  and  were  con- 
cealed lliere,  so  he  said  those  who  concealed 
them  were  tiie  worst  sort  of  traitors,  lie  had 
likewise  a  great  mind  to  find  out  any  among  the 
rich  merchants,  who  might  all'ord  great  compo- 
sitions to  save  their  lives."  So  after  burning 
Elizabeth  Gaunt,  at  Tyburn,  and  beheading  Lady 
Lysle,  in  the  market  place  of  Winches^ir,  Bur- 
net again  says:  "Most  of  those  that  suffered, 
expressed  at  their  death  such  a  calm  firmness, 
and  such  zeal  for  their  religion,  which  they 
believed  was  in  danger,  (being  prolestants)  that 
it  made  great  im[)ressions  on  their  spectators. 
Some  base  men  among  them  tried  to  save  them- 
selves by  accusing  others.  Goodenough,  who 
had  been  under-sheriff  of  London,  when  Cornish 
was  sheriff,  offered  to  swear  against  Cornish,  and 
also  said  that  Rumsey  had  not  told  all  he  knew. 
So  Rumsey,  to  save  himself,  joined  with  Good- 
enough  to  swear  Cornish  guilty  of  that  for  which 
the  Lord  Russel  had  suffered.  And  this  was 
driven  on  so  fast  that  Cornish  was  seized  and 
tried,  and  executed  within  the  week.  If  he  had 
got  a  little  time,  the  falsehood  of  the  evidence 
would  have  been  proved  from  Rumsey's  former 
deposition,  which  appeared  so  clearly  soon  after 
his  death,  that  his  estate  was  restored  to  his 
family,  and  the  witnesses  were  lodged  in  remote 
prisons  foi-  life. 

"Cornish,  at  his  death,  asserted  his  innocence 
with  great  vehemence,  and  with  some  acrimony 
complained  of,tlie  methods  taken  to  destroy  him. 
And  so  they  gave  it  out  that  he  died  in  a  fit  of 
fury.  But  Pen,  who  saw  the  execution,  saiii 
to  mo,  'There  appeared  nothin;/  but  a  Just  inJii/-^ 
■nation  that  innocence  might  vertj  naturally  give.' 
Pen  might  be  well  relied  on  in  sul-Ii  matters,  he 
being  so  entirely  in  the  King's  interests,  tie 
said  to  me,  'The  King  was  much  to  be  pitied, 
who  was  htu'ried  into  all  tliis  effusion  of  blood 
by  Jell'.'ry's  imiietuous  and  cruel  temper.'  But 
if  his  own  inclinations  had  not  lieen  hiasi'd  that 
way,  and  his  Priests  liii.l  not  thought  il  the 
inter(\sl  of  their  party  to  let  that   butcher  loose,

by  which  so  many  men  that  were  likely  to  oppose 
llicm  were  put  out  of  the  way,  it  is  not  to  be 
iniiigined  that  there  would  have  been  such  a  reign 
of  cruelty,  and  that,  in  so  many  instances.  It 
gave  a  general  horror  to  the  body  of  the  nation, 
and  it  let  people  see  what  might  ])e  ex|iecled

Even  some  of  the  fairest  of  Tories  began  to  re-

much,  and  gone  too  far.

In  Western  Martyrology,  or  llio  I'.loody  As-

seized  in  October,  1G85,  and  the  Monday  afler 
his  commitmenl,  which  was  on  'I'lmrsd.iy  or 
Friday,  arraigned  for  high  treason,  having  no  n(j- 
lice  given  him  till  Saturday  noon.  His  charge 
was  for  consjiiring  to  kill  the  King,  and  jH-om- 
tsing  to  assist  the  Duke  of  Monmoulli,  &c.,  in 
llioir  treasonable  enterprises.  He  desired  his 
trial  might  be  deferred,  because  of  his  short 
lime  for  preparation,  and  that  be  had  an  impor- 
tant witness  1-10  miles  away.  The  King  left  it 
Willi  the  judges  to  put  it  off  or  not  ;  but  il  was 
denied  him.  lie  had  not  deserv.-d  so  well  of

The  evidence  against  Iiim  was  Humsey  and

and  in  spite  of  all  he  was  found  guilty  ami  coii-

the  way  be  ever  so  violent.  His  carriage  and 
,  behaviour  at  leaving  Newgale,  was  as  fol- 
lows :

Coming  into  the  press  yard,  and  feeling  the 
halter  in  the  officer's  hand,  he  said,  'Is  this  for 
me?'  The  officer  answered,  'Yes.'  lie  re- 
plied, 'Blessed  be  God,'  and  kissed  it;  and  af- 
terward said,  '  0,  blessed  be  God  for  Newgale  ;

Jesus  Christ,  for  there  is  no  olher  way  of  coming 
to  God  but  by  Him,  lo  find  acceptance  with 
Him;  there  is  no  olher  name  under  Heaven 
whereby  we  can  be  saved,  but  the  name  of 
Jesus  !'  Then,  speaking  to  the  officers,  he  said  : 
'  Labor  every  one  of  you  lo  be  fit  lo  die,  for  I 
tell  you,  you  are  not  fit  lo  die  ;  I  was  not  fit  to

spitefully  and  ignoininiously  ordered,  almost  jje- 
fore  his  own  door,  and  near  Guildhall,  to  scare 
any  good  citizen  from  appearing  vigorously  in  the 
discharge  of  his  duty,  for  his  country's  service, 
Ijy  his  example.  'God  is  my  witness,' says  he, 
'  the  crimes  laid  to  my  charge  were  falsely  and 
maliciously  sworn  against  me  by  the  witnesses  ; 
for  I  never  was  at  any  consult  ;  nor  any  meeting 
where  matters  against  the  government  were  dis- 
coursed of;  I  never  heant  or  read  any  declara- 
tion lending  that  way.  As  fur  the  crimes  for

"  lie  was  observed  by  those  who  stood  near  (he 
sledge  to  have  several  times  solemnly  averred 
his  absolute  innocence  of  any  design  against  the 
governnuMit. 

"  There  were  some  persons  who  v.'cre  known  to 
have  been  present,  that  manifesled  much  barba- 
rious  joy  at  his  death,  some  of  whom  were  so 
confounded  at  his  constancy  and  Chrislian  bra- 
very, as  wickedly  to  report  that  he  was  drunk  or 
mad  when  he  died.  His  quarters  were  set  upon 
'flnildhall,' in  Terrorein,  aui\  for  the  same  reason, 
no  doubt,  before  mentioned,  for  which  he  was 
executed  so  near  it.  There  was  a  terrible  storm 
on  the  day  of  liis  death,  such  an  one  as  has 
scarcely  been  known  in  the  memory  of  man, 
and  will  never  be  forgollen  by  those  who  wit- 
nessed it.

1  will  introduce  one  more  teslimony  against 
Ibis  judicial  murder,  but  not  from  an  eye  witness. 
It  is  from  a  sagacious  historian,  wim  lias  few 
su[)eriors — Thomas  Babington  .Alacauley.  Vol. 
l,p.  Gil, says:  "Ala  later  period,  when  all  men 
of  all  parties  spoke  with  horror  of  Hie  I'.liiody

the  blame  on  each  other.  Jefferys  in  the  Tower, 
protested,  that  in  his  utmost  cruelty,  he  had  not 
gone  beyond  his  master's  express  orders — nay, 
that    he    liad    fallen    short  of  them.     James,  at

ministers;  but  neiHier  of  those  hard  hearted

"The    slaughter  in  the  west  was    over;    the 
slaughter  in  London  was  about  to  begin.     The 
government   was    particularly    desirous    to   find     , 
victims  among  the  great   IVIu'g  merchants  of  the 
city.     They  had,  in  the  last  reign,  been  a  for- 
Miiifilile  p;ui  of  llie  strength   of  the  opiiosition. 
Tliey   were   weiillliy,  and  their   wealth   was    not 
like  that  of  many  noblemen  and  country  gentle- 
men, proterled  by  entail   against  forfeiture.     In 
the  case  of  Grey,  and  of  men  situated  like  him, 
it  was  impossible  to  gratify  cruelty  and  rapacity 
at  once  ;  but  a  rieh  trader  might  be  both  hanged 
and  plundered.    Tin.'  cumnie'reial  grandees,  how- 
ever, though  in  Lvneral  liu:.lile  to  Popery  and  to 
arbitrary  power,  had  yet  been  loo  scrupulous  or 
too  timid    to    incur   the   guilt  of   high    treason.     I 
One  of  the  most  considerable  among  them,  was 
Henry  Cornish.    He  had  been  an  Alderman  under    'j 
the  old  charter  of  the  city,  and  had  hlled  the     ! 
otlice  of  sheriff  when  Ihe  question  of  the  J'Jxdu-     j 
sion  Bill  occupied  Mie  iiublic  mind.     In  politics     ! 
lie  was  a  ^Vhig ;  his    religious  opinions  leaned 
toward    Presbyterianism ;  but   his    temper   was     ! 
cautious  and  moderate.    It  is  not  proved  by  any     j 
trustworthy   evidence   that  he  t.'Ver  a|iproached      | 
the    veriiii    of  treason.     He    iiad,  indeed,  when 
sherilT,  been    very  unwilling    to  employ    as  his      1 
deputy    a  man  so  violent  and    unprincipled  as 
Goodenough.     When  the  '  Rye  House  Plot' was      ■ 
discovered,  great  hopes  were  entertained  at  White      i 
Hall   that  Cornish   would  appear  to    have  been 
concerned,  but  these  liojies   were   disappointed. 
One  of  Ihe  conspii-alors,  indeed,  John  llumsey, 
was   ready    to  swear  to   anything,  but   a  single 
witness  was   not  suflicient,  and  no  second  could 
be  found.     More  than   two   years  had  elapsed  ;

The  case  against  him  rested  wholly  on  the  evi- 
dence of  Rumsey  and  Goodenough.  Botli  were, 
by  liicir  own  confession,  accomplices  in  I  lie  plot 
Willi  which  they  charged  the  prisoner.  I^otli 
were  impelled  by  the  strongest  pressure  of  hope 
and  fear  to  criminate  him.  Evidence  was  pro- 
duced which  proved  that  Goodenough  was  also 
imder  the  influence  of  personal  enmily.  Rum- 
sey's  story  was  inconsistent  with  the  story  which 
he  lold  when  he  appeared  as  a  witness  against 
Lord  Russell.  But  these  things  were  urged  in 
vain.  On  the  bench  sal  three  judges,  who  had 
lieen  with  Jefferys  in  the  West ;  and  it  was  re- 
innrkcd  by  those  who  watched  their  deportment 
that  they  had  come  back  from  the  carnage  of 
Taunton  in  a  fierce  and  excited  slate.  It  is 
indeed  but  too  true  that  the  taste  for  blood  is  a 
laste  which  even  men  not  naturally  cruel,  may, 
by  habit,  speedily  acquire.  The  bar  and  the 
bench  united  to  brow  beat  the  unfoi'lnnate 
Whig.  'I'lie  JLU'y  named  by  a  coiii-lly  sherilf

graced the  sessions  of  Ihat  aulunni  at  the  Old

married  CAXUAiuNt:  Cornish  about  1G5S,  dauglitLT 
of  Henry  Cornisli,  of  London.  Their  four  chil- 
dren were  Tliomas,  Henrj',  Catharine  and  Jlary. 

The  name  has  been  written  lloilingwortii, 
Ilollinsworlh,  Ilollingswortli,  County  of  Chester, 
England,  traceable  to  the  year  1022.  From  this 
ancient  house  descends  the  present  Robert  llol- 
lingworth,  Esq.,  of  HoUingwortli  Hall,  magistrate 
for  the  counties  of  Chester  and  Lancaster.  The 
family  name  was  formerly  written  Iloilynworfh, 
and  is  evidently  derived  from  the  IJolly  Tree, 
called  in  Cheshire,  Ilollyn  Tree,  witli  which  the 
estate  aliounded.

Since  writing  the  above,  I  find  lliis  :  "  The 
family  is  of  Saxon  descent.  The  estate  was  pur- 
chased A.  D.  1022,  in  N.  E.  Cheshire,  England. 
The  name  is  derived  from  the  Iluliy  Tree  and 
Worth,  (a  farm),  location,  .Motlram.  The  chinch 
of  the  family  and  the  hall,  both  several  centtu'ies 
old,  are  now  standing;  the  family  arms  are  on 
Lolh.  The  late  owner,  Ca])!.  Robert  lloliings- 
wurth,  died  in  18G5.  The  building  is  very  much 
out  of  repair.  It  is  now  owned  by  a  ^Ir.  Taylor, 
of  Manchester,  and  valued  at    X20,000.     Tliere 


are  G25  acres  of  land,"  says  Wm.  R.  Ilollings- 
wortli,'■  of  Baltimore,  iMaryland. 

Jt  is  possible  that  Valentine  Flollingsworth's 
parents  were  Friends,  cotemporary  with  George 
Fox,  as  Quakerism  had  birth  about  lliat  lime.

Henry  was  named  for  liis  maternal  ^ran<l- 
fallier,  Henry  Cornisli,  and  was  a  man  of  mneli 
(listiiictioH.  11  is  said  tliat  lie  as.isird  Thomas 
llMJHies  in  laying  out  the  city  of  r'liiladel[ihia, 
wlien  only  18  years  of  age.  If  this  is  true,  he 
iiiiist  have  come  to  America  Iiefon?  his  father,  in 
16S2.  He  was  less  than  ten  years  of  age  when 
his  fatlier  moved  to  Ireland,  and  his  superior 
cihiration  was  obtained  there.  Wliii.'  his  seliool- 
(lays  were  passing,  he  likely  found  his  hiture 
roinpanion,  for  whom  he  re-crossed  the  ocean 
to  marry  in  1G88.  lie  was  in  membership  with 
Friends.  For  some  lime  in?  was  Depniy  Sur- 
veyor of  Chester  County.  In  Kllir)  he  resided 
in  Chester,  and  was  Sherilf  of  the  couiily,  and 
also  represented  New  Castle  County  in  the  I'ro- 
viiicial  Assembly,  his  father  being  a  r(^presen- 
tative  tiie  same  year.  In  1700,  and  fiu'  some 
time  after,  he  was  Clerk  of  the  Cuurls,  and 
Ou'oner  of  Chester  County.  He  renioveil  to 
Flkton,  Md.,  about  1712,  in'  which  year  he  was 
appointed,  {M  mo.  9,)  by  Lord  llallimore.  Sur- 
veyor of  Cecil  County. 


He  was  the  founder  of  the  Ilollingsw.a'th 
family  in  Alaryhuid:  He  was  the  grand-father 
of  Col.  Henry  llollingsworth,  who  was  actively 
identilied  in  behalf  of  the  colonies  in  their 
struggle  for  independence.  In  early  life,  Henry 
was  a  (Juaker,  but  uiiiled  later  with  the  Episco- 
pal Church.  He  was  somewhat  eccentric,  and 
would  ii(,t  sulTer  an  animal  to  be  killed  for  food, 
and  lived  for  many  yi'ars  on  a  vegetable  diet. 
Once  on  returning  from  a  fair  al  New  Castle,  he 
saw  a  rattlesnake  coilei!  up  by  a  log,  near  his 
home,  but  passed  by  wilhoul'  killing  it.  The 
next  ilay  a  peddler  was  found  near  the  siiot, 
dead  from  llie  bite  of  a  snake.  This  gave  Henry 
great  i.ain,  ami  he  afterward  believed  it  right  to 
kill  snakes. 

Henry  llollingsworlli's  will  was  execute.l  2d

at  haufl,  and  I  am  left  to  circumstantial  data  ; 
IjLit  I'.li/.al.elh  must  iiave  died  jjefore  any  of  her

THE  McFARLAN   FAMILY. 


The  MacIvaiu.an  name  is  of  Scotch  origin,  and 
comes  lineally  hiun  the  old  Karls  of  j.emio.x,  the 
aiuieiit  name  uf  the  .■oimly  of  I  lumbal  Imi, 
Sr.olland. 


and  roving  life,  giviu'j-  origin   to  the  Scoto-Irish 
of  aneienl  days. 

The  name  M,u: Farlaii,  of  Scotland,  and  Mc- 
F.,rl,n,.l,  of  Ireland,  origiilated,  no  douitt,  like 
Scollaiid  is  supposed  by  some  to  have  been  j  many  ol  her  surnames,  from  the. name  of  a  place 
.■tiled  by  a  colony  from  the  north  of  Ireland.  ,is  i  of  re^idence  ;  heuee  the  name  Farhnid,  from  the 
niy  as  5o:;.  They  were  called  Scots,  said  to  be  |  lardands  of  Scutland,  the  ancient  home  of  their 
oiii  an  Iri.-h  word  Scele,  signilying  dispersed  or  I  ancestors,  became  their  adopted  name,  afler

ooiirdryiiien,  were  loyal  and  patiiulie.  This 
may  be  inferred  from  tiie  Familij  Anns.  Tlie 
crest  that  snrmounls  the  helmet  above  Ihe  shield 
is  a  demi-savage,  grasping  in  his  doxler  lauid 
a  sheaf  of  arrows,  and  pointing  with  llic  sin-^hT 
to  an  imperial  crown,  exclaiming,  "  Thin  I'll  de- 
fend!" The  scroll  beneath  Ihe  shield  contains 
the  word  Loch  Sloii.  The  le-viid  that  acconnts 
for  tliese  pai'ls  of  the  armorial  insignia,  says 
the  riglit  to  assume  them  was  granted  by  Ihe 
King,  for  service  and  bravery  at  Loch  Sloy,  wdien 
the  royal  army  was  imperiled;  and  that  the 
honorable  distinction  of  being  ranked  as  a  de- 
finder  of  the  croivn  was  at  the  same  lime  con- 
ferred. This  is  given  as  tradition,  wilhont  data 
to  verify  it.  But  that  the  coat-of-arms  here 
represented  was  rightfully  borne  by  our  far-away 
ancestors,  adaiits  of  no  doubt,  and  proves  the 
family  to  have  been  of  ancient  and  honor.djie 
descent,  for  the  Arms,  see  plale  8,  No.  18,  on 
the  frontispiece  of  book. 

In  the  gi'cal  Highland  uprising  in  Scotland, 
in  tT-lT),  which  resulted  so  disastrously  lo  "Char- 
ley, my  C.iiarley,"  at  the  hard  fought  battle  of 
Ciillodcn,  Sir  Walter  Scott  places  Ihe  Mad'arlanc 
clan  second  in  Ihe  ranks,  and  gives  the  gathering 
words  of  lhi>  clan,  on  (he  evr  of  bailie,  as  thrir 
walchword,  LocJl  Sloy.  It  is  said  the  mother  of 
that  greatest  of  Scollish  Bravo's,  Rob  l{oy,  Ihe 
great  MacGrogor,  was  a  MacFarlane. 

Since  Ihe  Beformalion,  and  din'inglhe  reign  of 
Queen  Elizabelh,  1558  to  IIJO;],  ami  of  James  1 
to  l(i25,  Ihe  Earls  of  Tyrone  and  Tyrcomiel 
entered  inio  a  conspiracy  against  the  luigliNh 
governmeni,  resulting  in  their  subjugation  and 
Idiiriliui'  of  their  immense  landed  possessions. 
This,  and  oilier  repeated  revolls  of  the  Irish, 
(who,  ever  prefer  Home  lo  taigland)  brought 
down  Ihe  |.aw  of  Ihe  British  lion  wilh  terrible 
severilv,  until  seven  of  Ihe  nine  coniilies  i\{  Ihe

'  ]M.-.|,Mily  al  pi\,~cMl  are  Ihe  luincipal  landed  pro- 
prietors in  that  setlion. 

In  the  closing  year  of  the  reign  of  Queen 
Elizabeth,  Scotland  and  Ireland  became  paiis  of 
the  same  empire  with  England,  says  Macaulay. 

•James  I\frPai-lan,  of  county  Tyrone,  Ireland, 
in  a  I. ■tier  to  the  wiiler  in  1875,  said  :  "The 
MarFarlands  cnnc  from  Ihe  parish  of  Dugdale, 
in  S.-dlhm.l,  at  Ih.;  time  of  the  union  hclw.vn 
Scotland  and  hvlaiid.^'^  They  w.-re  moslly  of 
the  Scotch  army,  and  were  pensioned  hj  the 
county  of  Tyrone,  wilh  others,  to  settle  Ihiav." 
This  gives  us  the  origin  of  Ihe  Scotch-Irish  of 
later  days  in  America. 

The  time  our  nnnole  ancestors  emigrated 
from  Scdtland  lo  Ireland  is  not  fully  eslahlishrd. 
II  may  have  I. .mm.  early  in  the  17lh  centuiy,  if  it 
was  in  connection  wilh  Ihe  lai'ge  iidlux  in  the 
reign  of  James  I  ;  bul  if  -tohn  JMcFarlan,  of  Lis- 
cabble,  was  Ihe  lirsl,  (as  we  are  told)  it  mu-t 
hav.'  been  near  Ihe  close  of  that  cmlnry,  or  the 
beginning  of  the  ISlh,  as  he  was  b.,rn  UmL';  one 
of  his  four  children  was  born  in  1715.  Ili- 
cldest  son  being  named  Dngald,  after  Ihe  paii-li 
of  Dougdale,  in  Scotland,  from  \vheuce  he  or  Ins 
progenitors  came,  favors  Ihe  supposition  that  lie 
and  his  wife  were  emigi'anis,  and  thus  mauifesled 
a  pleasant  memory  of  their  home  in  father-land.

preparatory  to  taking  possession.  The  owner  re- 
sisted this  confiscation  so  far  as  he  was  able,  but 
with  no  other  elTect  tlian  lo  induce  the  maraud- 
ers to  fasten  a  rope  around  hi,  neek,  '•  to  leach

only  even  his  horses  driven  olT,  but  also  his  cat- 
tle, pigs  and  sheep,  and  all  his  |ionllry  and  grain 
were  carried  away.  While  the  soldiers  were 
thus  engaged,  the  women  Ibllowing  the  army  en- 
lercil  the  house  and  stripped  it  of  everyliiing 
they  could  lay  their  hands  on  ;  beds,  bedding, 
clothing  and  victuals;  not  even  s|iaring  the

the  neck  of  its  mother,  telling  her  as  they  did  so, 
that  "  tliey  had  come  to  stay."  "  Yes,  to  Ibid

Jolm  and  Sarah  .McFarlaii  had  very  little  per- 
sonal properly  left,  after  their  robbery  by  the 
Hessians,  and  they  never  recovered  from  tlie 
loss,  but  were  able  to  maintain  their  integrity 
and  leach  their  (  liiMreii,  by  example  as  well  a- 
pre.-ei,l,loeainan  honest  living.  In  this  replied, 
their  po^leiily  may  claim  a  goodly  berilage.  We 
tiiid  John  and  Sarali  braving  their  adverse  fortune 
with  true  courage.  William  was  a  farmer,  while 
Cieoi'ge,  Fiioch  and  Isaac  were  given  trades;  but 
alt  tlie  brotliers  subscipieiil  ly  became  [lossessed 
of  land,  and  followed,  in  part,  the  vocation  of 
tlie  family,  that  of  tillers  t.f  the  soil. 

When  John's  health  failed,  he  gave  up  farming, 
and  went  lo  residi;  with  his  son  George,  in  East

A1.1.SWORTH— On  the  24th  of  September,  ]S77,  at  Irwin 
statiuii,  Mrs.  Martlia  A.,  wife  of  Benjamin  AlNwortlj,  agtd 
■i'2  years,  2  iiionth.s  and  'G  days. 

Tlie  deceased  was  ii  daiigliter  of  .James  McFarlan,  for 
many  years  a  liiglily  esteemed  citizen  of  llempfield  township, 
iieared  under  lionie  example  and  influenoes,  she  eariv  con- 
secrated herself  to  Christ  by  uuiliug  with  the  Pre-ihyterian 
church.  For  more  than  twelve  years  she  was  alllicted  with 
a  disease,  occasioning  intense  snffering,  and  for  most  of  these 
long  years  of  alllictioa  was  unable  to  lie  in  bed.  She  was 
deprived  of  worshiping  God  in  the  sanctuary,  yet  the  word 
of  God  wa.s  her  constant  companion,  and  she  bent  her  heart 
in  luimble  submission  to  God's  will,  under  sufferings  and 
trials  that  seemed  to  crush  the  human  heart;  yet  never  a 
murmur.  As  she  ncared  Jordan's  stormy  bank,  she  w.as  en- 
abled to  see  the  Saviour  on  the  "  shining  shore,"  she  pulled 
the  oar  of  faith,  and  longed  to  take  hold  of  his  exleuded 
hand.  When  crossing  the  river  of  Death,  she  turned  her 
glazed  eyes  on  the  loved  ones  weeping  around  her  dying 
chair,  and  with  a  beatihc  smile,  said,  "  I  am  going  to  Jesus," 
and  angels  obeyed  the  heavenly  mandate,  and  conveyed  her 
liberated  spirit  to  the  arms  of  the  Saviour.  She  leaves  a 
husband,  two  daughters,  brothers  and  friends  to  mourn  her 
departing.  Her  aged  father  of  more  than  three  score  years 
and  teu,  who  has  often  e.\perieneed  the  bitterness  of  bereave- 
ment, said  to  the  writer,  with  a  tearful  eye,  "  1  accept  the 
bitter  cup,  because  I  am  satistied  that  God  has  taken  her  to 
himself."

to  care  tenderly  for  animals,  and  it  has  de- 
scended, in  a  modified  form,  to  some  of  tlio 
present  generation.  William's  wife  was  a  rricml,

plain  apparel,  as  he  was  the  plainest  of  his 
family,  none  of  whom  belonged  to  any  religious

years.  They  rest  together  in  l''riends'  Grounds,

1771  ;  d.  J  lib  mo.  13,  1858,  within  one  day  of 
her  87lh  year.  I'aternally  she  was  of  .Swrdi^h 
ilescenl,  being  Ihe  daughter  of  Amlivw  Trier- 
son,  whose  wife  was  a  Ford,  and  I  presninr  a 
sister  of  old  Abram  Ford,  of  near  Wilmington, 
Del.  She  had  a  brother,  An.lrew  Peterson  (her 
falher's  name  was  Andrew),  who  m.  a  daughler 
of  an  old  German  couple  named  Smallz,  who 
resided  on  the  Kennetl  pike  near  Wilmington. 
Ex-sheriir  Lyman's  wife,  of  New  Castle  County, 
Del.,  is  a  daughter  of  said  Andrew  Peterson,  and 
a  son  of  Henry  Peterson,  a  keeper  of  J\Ioyamen- 
sing  prison,  PhiTa,  and  has  been  for  years. 

George  and  Sarah  McFarlan  adopted  the  wri- 
ter of  this  liistory,  and  no  mother  ever  treated 
her  child  wilh  more  tenderness  than  she  be- 
stowed on  the  orphan.  Slie  was  truly  a  good 
woman,  who  practiced  the  comma!)d,  "do  unto 
others  as  ye  would  liave  others  do  unto  you." 
George  was  widely  known  for  a  quarter  of  a  cen- 
tury as  one  of  the  best  wooden  pump  makers  in 
the  country.  He  was  a  carpenter  by  trade,  but 
ill  middle  and  later  life  he  followed  pump  mak- 
ing. So  extensive  was  his  business  he  was  sel- 
dom at  home  more  than  one  night  in  the  week. 
He  was  a  strong,  hardy  man,  about  five  feel  ten 
or  eleven  inches  in  height,  and  would  wt'igh 
170  or  180  pounds.  The  boring  of  while  oak 
pump  slocks  was  considered  hard  work  loj-  two 
men,  yet  he  oflen  did  it  alone.  His  hard,  bony 
lingers,  had  worn  ruts  in  the  well  seasoned 
hickory  handle  of  his  sixteen-feel  auger.  When 
George  and  Sarah  were  married  they  occupied  a 


room  in  his  sister,  Betsey  Taggart's  house.  There 
llieir  first,  and  probably  their  second,  child  was 
boin,  as  we  find  two  months  after  John's  birth,

enlarg.al  Ihe  house;  lirsl,  by  an  addiliim  lo  the

work  and  rieid  ei  onomy  he  made  and  saved 
money,  assialing  his  four  sons  as  they  settled  in 
life  to  a  farm  each,  and  his  three  d.iughters  to 
comfortable  oulfits  as  they  took  [lartiiers  and

The  prosperity  of  lliis  successful  and  seemingly 
happy  family  did  not  continue  lo  the  end.  George

straiglil  and  slender,  of  a  kind  disposilion,  sober 
and  industrious;  by  trade,  a  slonr  njason.  A 
leading  trait  in  his  character  was  his  fondness  of 
knowledge,  and  love  of  reading.  On  one  occa- 
sion, not  long  before  liis  decease,  when  visiting 
at  the  home  of  his  nephew,  William  McFarlan, 
of  l\(.'nnetl,  lie  took  up  a  book  that  delighted 
him  much.  It  was  "  Malte  Brun's  Physical  Geo- 
graphy," which  he  said  he  had  been  wanting  to 
read  all  his  life.  Sitting  down  to  it,  hi>  was 
oblivious  of  all  around  him,  and  only  ro-lcd 
from  his  reading  to  take  the  nceduil  noniish-

pleted the  work. 

After  his  marriage  he  resided  with  his  brolher 
Enoch,  near  Avondale,  where  lAniisa  and  Sally

John  Slern  was  si.K  ((,>et  in  height,  like  his  son 
Jacob  T.,  but  a  stouter  man.  His  complexion 
was  fair  and  florid  ;  hall',  light  brown  ;  counte- 
nance open  and  expressive. 

AVe  liave  evidence  of  his  arlislic  skill  as  a 
workman.  A  side-saddle  made  liy  him  for  his 
daughter  Sarah,  and  now  in  possession  of  her 
daughter,  TIanna  R.  ^Veldin,  of  Brandywine 
Hundred,  Del.,  is  nearly  seventy  years  old,  and 
almost  as  soft  and  good  as  new. 

In  personal  appenrance,  I^hebe  Stern  was 
small  and  slight,  of  alioul  one  liundred  [jounds 
in  weight,  resembling  somewhat  her  daughter, 
Rest,  who  was  the  smallest  of  her  family. 

John  M.  Stern,  of  Oxford,  Ohio,  was  a  lad  of 
fourteen  years  when  our  nidllirr  tiled.  He  says  : 
"  ller  complexion  was  very  fair,  and  hair  corres- 
pondingly light;  -he  wa-:  always   neally  dressed. 


At  this  place  Ihe  writer's  parents  resided  about 
eighteen  years.  It  is  probable  that  all  the 
children  were  born  here,  except  the  eldest,  and 
two  youngest.  fJeorge  Stern  in  his  "  Chronicle" 
(written  from  memory)  of  the  family,  salt! : 
"  Father  lived  at  the  nine  acre  home  until  1817." 
This  was  an  error,  and  after  the  lapse  of  half  a 
Century,  excusable.  The  deed  for  the  farm  John 
Stern  bought  of  Jacob  Graves,  of  48.}  acres,  near 
the  Log  Meeting  House,  one  mile  south  ofCenter- 
ville,  Del.,  was  executed  March  'Jfjlh,  181G. 
This  was  moving  day  in  Delaware,  ami  no  d(jubt 
they  moved  on  that  day,  or  between  it  and  April 
Isl,  which  was  moving  day  in  I'enn'a.  Rest 
was  born  10th  of  April,  1810,  and  cerlaiiily  at 
the  new  home.

All  was  still,  very  still;  I  never  since  witnessed 
so  peaceful  a  death."  She  died  September  18, 
1820,  aged  41  years. 

The  purchase  of  the  home  in  Delaware  so 
soon  after  the  w.ir  of  1811',  wdien  land  was  very 
high,  proved  a  l)limdei-.  It  was  sold  four  years 
later  at  a  great  loss,  to  George  McFarlan.  The 
family  was  scattered,  mostly  among  the  mother's 
kindred.  The  falher  was  broken  down  and  dis- 
couraged, and  sought  a  home  wilh  his  sister 
Saiah  l.ainborn,  in  Keniiell  township,  at  what  is 
now  llosedale  Station,  on  the  1!.  C.  R.  R.  Here 
late  in  the  fall  of  1821,  while  assisting  Thomas 
Lamborn  wilh  his  butchering,  he  contracted  a 
violent  cold,  and  in  one  week  had  ceased  to 
suffer  and  to  live,  aged  45  years.  In  less  than 
lirieen  nujnths  after  the  death  of  his  wife,  he  was 
laid  by  her  side  at  old  Center.

b.  1st  mo.  1,  1795,  and  Lydia  Patchett,  b.  2d 
mo.  2,  171t2.  John  was  the  only  son  of  Charles 
Fletcher  and  Millicent  Beet,  who  lived  and  died 
ill  Ledman,  Lincolnshire,  England.  Lydia  was 
the  daughter  of  Wm.  Patchett,  Sr.,  and  Winifred 
Green.  John  d.  2d  mo.  9,  1874,  at  Harris  Grove, 
Iowa.  Lydia  slili  lives  with  her  daughter  M.  B. 
Stern,  in  lair  health,  bein-  now,  (March,  1885)  in 
her  Stlth  yrar. 

Jacob  T.  Stern  was  left  an  orphan  at  seven  years 
of  ago.  Ho  fiiund  a  home  first  at  Parkerville  ; 
but  in  1822,  at  West  Grove,  in  the  family  of 
Lewis  Fusoy  and  his  son  Ellis,  very  strict  Friends, 
and  wealthy  farmers  and  millers.  Here  industry 
and  economy  were  habitual  virtues,  and  his  boy- 
hood was  guarded  after  the  manner  of  Friends 
of  that  period,  whicli  had  a  wholesome  influence 
ill  forming  the  habits  of  youth. 

Jacob  lofl:  this  plain  and  orderly  home  in  1831, 
to  learn  the  trade  of  house-plastcror  wilh  his 
brother  George,  who  then  resided  in  Ilainorton. 
lie  attended  school  in  the  winter  months,  where 


he  says  he  "  wn.-sllcd  with  nouns,  verbs  and 
Irianyli's"  un.ler  I'allrrson  Hamor,  at  Old  Ken- 
nott  school  house.  At  this  place  ho  also  look 
his  first  lessons  in  temperance  from  such  men 
as  Isaac  Alartin,  Simon  Barnard  and  Sumner 
St(4)bins  ;  and  in  anti-slavery  from  hearing  Dr.  B. 
Fussell  and  Isaac  .Morodilh  debate  with  Esquire 
Lamborn.  He  sometimes  attended  Old  ]\ennett 
Friends'  Meeting,  and  heard  the  venerable  John 
Parker  preach. 

After  completing  his  apprenticeship,  he  taught 
school  in  the  neighborhood  of  f!ochranville,' 
having  for  a  pujiil  his  future  wife.  He  afterward 
made  one  or  two  trii)s  west,  remaining  sometime 
with  his  brother  John,  in  Oxford,  Ohio,  b.'iiiy  for 
a  short  lime  a  student  of  Miami  t'liiversity,  in 
that  town. 

He  was  married  soon  after  his  return  to 
Chester  C!onnly,  and  settled,  after  a  year  or  two 
spent  at  "Trout  Hollow,"  in  the  village  of  Cocli- 
ranville,  where  they  had  a  cosy  little  home, 
called  the  "  Village  Bower"  by  Millicent,  who 
surrounded  it  with  vines  and  flowers,  in  llio 
culture  of  which  she  was  very  successful. 

Here  they  dwe'll  for  several  years,  finding 
time  in  the  intervals  of  labor  to  attend  lyceums, 
lectures,  and  reform  meetings  of  every  kind, 
often  speaking  and  taking  part  in  debates.  Both 
husl)and  and  wife  are  earnesl  workers  for  tem- 
perance, the  advancement  of  woman,  and  all 
other  reforms.  They  wore  o<|ually  active  in  the 
cause  of  anti-slavery  in  the  days  that  "tried 
men's  souls."  After  parting  with  Iheir  village 
home,  they  resided  on  the  Octorara,  in  Lancaster 
County,  and  al  Russellville.  In  1853-4  they  re- 
moved lo  Hillside,  in  Kennetl  township,  and 
farmed  there  Iwo  years,  then  to  the  Bed  Lion, 
in  East  MarlLiorough,  farming  still.  In  the  Spring 
of  1857,  they  sold  out  and  wen  I  to  the  far  west, 
purchasing  a  farm  at  Harris  Grove,  Harrison 
County,  Iowa,  which  they  named  "  Linwood," 
where  they  resided  until  the  Spring  of  1883. 
They  gained  prominence  as  agriculturists,  and 
after  many  hardships  and  privations  in  the  new 
country,  made  for  themselves  a  comfortable 
home,  and  were  counted  among  the  old  settlers.

keeping  in  advance  of  the  actual  need  in  the 
afl'airs  of  life.  "  We  may  not  look  upon  her  like 
again." 

She  was  in  memljcrship  with  Friends,  and 
took  a  deep  interest  in  all  that  pertai-ned  to  their 
mode  of  worship.  She  taught  lier  sons,  when 
quite  young,  to  read  in  turn  a  portion  of  Scrip- 
ture every  morning,  thus  obeying  the  divine  in- 
junction, "Train  up  a  child  in  the  way  he  should 
go,  and  when  he  is  oKl  he  will  not  depart  from 
it.'"  She  was  buried  in  Friends'  (iround  at

they  removed  two  doors  above,  No.  Ill,  where 
they  still  reside  (188-1)  in  the  clothing  and  mer- 
chant tailoring  business. 

Cyrus  did  not  become  a  tailor  from  choice 
altogether.  It  happened  in  this  way  :  On  the  17lli 
of  March,  1834,  he  left  his  adopted  home  at 
George  McFarlan's,  to  assist  on  the  farm  of  a 
fine  old  Quakerneighbor,  (John  Hadley)  until  the 
flrll,  when  he  was  engaged  to  learn  cabinet-makiiij^ 
with  Samuel  ,Ia,a)l>s,  at  Kennell  Square.  Tlir 
bilious  fever  was  almost  epidemic,  and  very  fdal 
that  season;  Cyrus  was  prostrated  on  llie  ITIli 
of  Seplend)er,  and  lay  dangerously  ill  fur  Ihirly- 
three  days  at  John  Hadley's.  He  was  then  re- 
moved to  his  Uncle,  George  jMcFarlan's — four 
men  carrying  him  on  a  col,  one  of  whom  was 
Ills  brother  John.  He  was  there  nursed  by  his 
cousin  Albina  for  more  than  two  months,  when 
he  was  removed  on  a  bed  to  his  brother  George's, 
in  Hamorton,  whore,  in  twenty  days,  lie  com- 
menced to  learn  to  walk,  after  being  bed-ridden 
over  five  nionllis.  This  severe  illness  banished 
all  thought  of  learning  the  cabinet-making  trade. 

In  the  Spring  of  1835,  his  brolher,  Jacob  T. 
ciimmenced  business  at  tlieRed  IJon,  and  Cyru-;, 
iiaving  nolhing  to  do,  drifted  in  with  him  in  the 
plastering  trade.  During  the  Spring  they  plas- 
tered a  small  sliop  for  Jacob  Lamborn,  ]'',s(|,,  at 
the  l{ed  Lion.  It  was  intended  for  a  (ailor,  a 
y(jimgman  named  (Jeorge  Gordon,  who  pi-oposed 
to  give  a  boy  who  would  stay  four  years,  and 
learn  tailoring,  his  board  and  clolliing,  wilh  a 
freedom  suit  at  the  end  of  his  time,  two  weeks 
in  harvest  each  year,  and  two  mDiillis  schooling 
during  the  four  years.  Cyrus  w.is  at  that  lime

"Returning  from  Ohio,  he  located  in  Wilming- 
ton, Del.,  where,  on  his  marriage,  lu>  eommenceii 
llie  l>usiness  he  has  since  carried  on  successhilly. 
Ilonoied  as  a  man  and  a  citizen,  he  is  ever  ready

f.imily,  and  opens  the  door  of  his  yeiiial  home 
In  unsparing  hospitality. 

"  More  than  thirty  years  ago  he  conceived  the 
idea  of  collecling  some  statistics  of  his  family  to 
preserve  in  permanent  form,  hut  il  was  not  until 
1871  that  he  commenced  in  eaniesl  lo  colled 
the  data  eml>odied  in  this  volume.  During  the 
next  year  or  two  lie  visited  most  of  tla.'  homes 
and  haunts  of  his  ancestors  and  relalives,  ac- 
companied by  a  pliolographer,  hiking  [licluies, 
some  of  which  adorn  this  work. 

"In  1874  he  published  Ihe  ]\leFai'lau-lleald 
ricnealogical  I'ree,  and  a  year  or  so  later,  the 
more  thickly  branched  Tree  of  Ihe  Stern-Wests. 
Since  that  linn',  in  the  intervals  of  business,  ami 
as  health  permitted,  he  has  prepared  this  volume. 
He  has  shown  himself  to  be  the  mo-^t  pi^i-se'ver- 
ing,  of  a  pei'severing  tribe,  and  although  Ihe 
youngest  of  his  many-menibered  family,  he  has 
surp;isseit  them  all  in  patient,  persistent  work. 
Since  commencing  his  self-imposed  task,  he  has 
writluu  over  one  thousand  letters,  examined  tln^ 
rcc(rrds  of  different  states,  and  many  of  the 
monthly  meeting  books  of  Friends  ;  collecting 
and  studying  books  of  fiimily  and  local  history 
lo  a  large  extent;  having  recourse  to  the  histori- 
cal libraries  of  large  cities  in  the  search  for  in- 
formation which  ho  has  gathered  IVoni  every 
conceivable  (piarler. 

"He  ealle.l  a  family  nieeliug  on  the  i'M  of 
September,  1875,  on  the  classic  field  of  Dramly- 
wiue,  at  Birmingham  IMeeting  House.  At  a

"In  Ihe  Centennial  year,  August  10th,  a  more 
formal  family  re-niiion  (planned  by  Cyrus)  was 
called  at  Longwood,  and  responded  to  by  several 
hundr(?d  of  the  descendants  of  John  McFarlan 
and  Sarah  Iloald,  George  Stern  and  Sarah  West, 
representing  many  states.  On  that  occasion, 
among  many  contribulions  of  a  literary  cliaractcr, 
Cyrus  produced  an  elaborate  history  of  the 
Stern-^Vcst  family. 

"Seven  years  laler,  lOlh  of  August,  1883,  he 
called  together  a  few  relalives  at  Old  Centre,  near 
lo  hi-^  nwu  birlh-place,  and  the  burial-place  of 
his    parents,   and    many  of  the    family.     It  was

"On  the  -1111  of  Se])teniber,  187ft,  a  re-union 
of  family  and  friends,  taking  the  form  of  a  sur- 
prise for  Cyrus,  was  held  in  Pierce's  Park.  The 
day  was  beautiful,  and  will  long  be  remembered 
by  the  pal  licipanls.  Social  converse,  and  walks 
among  the  stalely  lre(>s  ami  lovely  llowers,  tilled 
the  lime  uidil  the  |.ic-nic  dinner  was  spread  on 
the  tables  and  enjoyed  by  all.  The  afler  part  of 
the  day  was  given  to  exercises  of  a  literary 
character,  speeches,  essays,  poems,  itc,  with 
some  reminiscences  by  Cyrus,  of  adventures  in 
that  locality  in  his  youth.  A  picture  of  a  group 
was  taken  at  the  west  cud  of  the  mansion,  by 
K.  S.  Marshall,  of  We.t  Chester."

of  Wilmington,  Del.;  was  a  teacher  in  the  col- 
lege for  several  years,  her  branches  being  My- 
thology, History  and  Geography.  She  was  of  a 
retiring  disposition,  slight  and  frail  in  appearance, 
but  enjoyed  fair  health,  and  was  a  student  with 
literary  inclinations.  She  was  in  membership 
with  the  M.  E.  Church.  Her  failli  mingled  with 
fears,  but  shortly  before  the  end  lliey  all  pa-^ed 
away,  and  slie  said,  "Some  one's  pray(.'rs  are 
answered,  the  chariot  has  come,"  and  quietly 
fell  asleep  in  death.  She  was  interred  at  i\lt.

mo.  n,  1813;  d.  1.4  mo.  4,  18^5,  at  9  v.  m.; 
rests  in  W.  and  H.  Cemetery.  He  was  in  tlie 
grocery  business  at  the  corner  of  .Seventli  and 
King  streets,  Wilmington,  Delaware,  for  nearly 
two  score  years.  His  heallli  failed,  and  he  re- 
tired wilh  his  family  to  1401  Jackson  street, 
where  he  ceased  to  live. 

The  following  short  sketch  of  his  life  is  clipped 
from  a  church  paper  : 

"J.icob  S.  AVeKlin  was  Lorn  in  linm.lywinc  Iliimlred, 
March  11,  1.S13,  .iiul  dieil  at  Iiia  ivsi.lencf,  No.  HUl  Jacksou 
street,  this  city,  on  January  4th,  ISSo.  He  was  convurti-il 
near  Mount  Pleasant,  on  the  eveninfj  of  October  31st,  Iti.'U, 
anil  for  more  than  fifty  years  lived  a  life  that  was  consiiieiioiis

f      fur  its  purity  and  usel'ulness.     He  was  one  of  the  foumlers  of 
|-     Ihu  Mt.  Pleasant  M.  E.  Cliurcli,  the  first  fifty  (hillars  he  ever 
f-     ciiriied  being  sacreJly  given  to  that  enterprise.     For  nearly 
I      fi/rly  years  he  was  engaged  in   business  in  this  city,  and  we 
'      mier  only  the  universal  testimony  of  liis  townsmen  when  we 
Buy  lliat  during  all  that   time  no  man  in  Wilmington  was 
more  truly  respected  than  lie.     In  the  churcli  and  out  of  it, 
Ilia   name   was    a   synonym  for    upriglitness  and    goodness. 
After  ten  years'  association  with  Asbury,  he  became  one  of 
llie  original  members  of  Scott  Church,  Wilmington,  and  re- 
mained   in  its    communion  until    his    death.     lie  held   the 
petitions  of  trustee,  class-leader,  and  exhorler,  and  was  faith- 
ful and  cllieieut  in  tlieui  all.     Long  after  he  was  obliged   to 
cease  from  llie  work  of  public  exhortation,  he  exercised  his 
gift  in  private,  and  until    his  final   illness,  was    accustomed, 
kindly  and  faithfully,  to  warn  and  cmnscl  his  friends  on  the 
n.l.ji-et  of  Iheir  souls'  salvaii(.n. 

"  lie  came  to  his  '  grave  in  a  full  age,  like  a  shock  of  corn 
Cometh  in  ii\  his  season.'  Suil'ering  from  no  disease,  his 
physical  energies  simply  failed  and,  like  machinery  from 
wtdch  the  power  has  been  withdrawn,  the  weary  wheels  of 
life  revolved  slower  and  slower,  and  at  length  stood  still. 
AVillioiit  pain  or  struggle  'he  was  not,  for  God  took  him.' 
liis  mind  was  as  placid  as  the  bosom  of  an  unrullled  lake. 
He  had  no  care,  no  want,  no  desire.  The  cup  of  his  life  was 
fidl,  his  work  was  done,  liis  hopes  were  realized,  and  he 
yielded  lip  his  pure,  ripe  spirit  to  God  in  the  completeness 
uf  a  perfected  peace. 

"lie  leaves  a  widow,  who  was  the  conipaniun  of  his  heart 
and  life  for  more  than  forty-two  years,  and  live  children,  lour 
of  whom  are  esteemed  members  of  the  church,  while  the 
other  has  very  recently  been  converted  among  \is,  and  to  this 
faiidly  he  has  bequeathed  the  precious  legacy  of  an  unsullied 
lite,  a  beiiutiful  faith,  and  a  triumphant  death."

One  year  ;i-o,  a  lillle  more, 

We  fnlluwM.'d  in  the  train  that  bore 

A  faithful  mother  and  true  wife. 

From  home,  anil  all  she  loved  in  life, 

And  saw  her  cold  form  laid  so  low, 

Fnder  the  winter's  robe  of  snow  ; 

And  even  felt  amid  our  grief, 

How  kindly  had  been  death's  relief; 

For  long  she  had  been  weak  ami  frail, 

(A  reed  before  the  earth's  rude  gale,) 

And  when  the  Father's  beckoning  hand, 

SummouM  her  to  the  better  land, 

E'en  we  who  loved  her,  could  but  say. 

For  her  it  is  the  happier  way. 

A  year  has  passed  ,s„me  days  ago 

Since  she  was  shrouded  'ne'alh  the  snow, 

And  we  to-ilay  laid  by  her  side 

A  son  who  was  her  hope  and  pride. 

And  gave  to  the  chill  earth's  embriu'e. 

One  whose  earih  work  was  earlv  done, 


leek  to  praise, 
than  free  of  speech. 


A  loving  broil 

His  walk  was 

That  gentle  s| 

More  prompt 

He  did  the  duties  within  reach  ; 

And  we  who  saw  liis  peaceful  face 

Laid  low  in  the  chill  earth's  embrace, 

Were  given  to  know  what  words  ne'er  tell 

Thai  wiih  bim  all  indeed  is  well; 

And  who  sh.ill  say  they  live  in  vain 

\Vlio  oidy  from  the  wrong  refrain, 

Who  walk  with  steady  steps  and  ilo 

The  deeds  known  only  to  the  few, 

Since  all  who  live  for  liigher  good 

Will  bless  the  human  brotherhood.

was  made  known  that  the  maiden  name  of  Val- 
entine's wife  Ann,  and  the  deponent's  mother, 
was  a  Calvert;  and  as  Col.  Talbot  suppos(?(l, 
was  one  of  the  Lord  Baltimore  Calvcrls  of  Mary- 
land. 

In  llie  liiograpliical  account  of  Henry  TTollings- 
wiirth,  (who  was  a  son  of  Valentine)  ;,'iven  in  Ihe 
history  of  f)ela\vare  County,  the  mother  of  Henry 
is  said  to  be  tiie  daugiiter  of  Henry  Cornish, 
Higli  Sheriff  of  I^ondon,  who  was  unjustly  e.\- 
ecuted  durin-  llic  rci-n  of  James  II.  The  above 
menlioncd  ilcposilioii,  coupled  with  Ihe  intro- 
ductory remarks,  leaves  it  to  be  inferred  that  the 
maJLi  nal  parenlage  of  Henry  Hollingsworth,  tliLis 
[^'ivL-n,  was  pi'obably  ini:orrect.  I  may  nii'nlioii 
that  my  notice  of  him,  so  far  as  it  relates  to  his 
parentage,  was  taken  h-om  a  biographical  notice 
of  Levi  Hollm;jsworlh,  a  yrand-son  of  Henry, 
conlaiiicd  in  "[he'  Lives  of  Lmincnt  I'liila.ld- 
phians,"  which  was  contrit)nted  to  that  wcn'k  by 
Ihe  late  Dr.  Joseph  Carson,  Professor  of  Materia 
Mcdlca  in  the  University  of  Pennsylvania,  who, 
by  marriage,  was  connected  with  the  fannly. 

While  there  were  facts  in  my  [lossession  which 
made  it  almosi  eeilaiu  Uial  Ihe  molherof  Henry 
llollii.-swui'lli,;ual  Sanniel,  llie  ni, deer  of  [be  de- 
|)osi[ion,  was  not  [he  same,  I  thought  it  would 
Ik;  more  satisfactory  to  confer  wilb  some  of  the 
ilesceiidants  of  Henry,  wilh  whom  I  was  ac- 
quainted. The  result  of  this  conference  has 
been  to  establish  all  the  malerial  fads  in  the 
publisbed  accounts  of  Henry  l!ollii!gsw(nJh,  ex- 
cep!  [be  maiden  name  of  his  mother,  which  was 
( 'ailntnnc  (.'.oruish,  and  not  Ann. 

Without  going  into  particulars,  I  may  uieiiliou 
thai  Ihe  family  records  show  that  Ihe  .•hiidieu  of 
Valeidine  Hollingsworth  and  bis  lirsl  wile,  Cath- 
arine, were :

The  above  will  be  sufficient  to  establish  sub- 
^[anlially  the  correctness  of  the  account  of  Henry

boi-n  al  Keiitinere  in  1517,  was  broughl  up  in  the 
Pioniisli  lailli,  and  was  rector  of  Houghton,  bill  a 
little  beloi('(^)ueen  Alary  died  lie  became  satisfied 
witli  the  general  tloctrines  of  the  Refoniiation. 
He  was  called  the  Apostle  of  the  North,  and 
wandered  unliarnied  ariiid  the  incessant  strife 
and  eonfnsioii  nf  the  times.  On  one  occasion, 
enteriiiy  I'lothlniry  (^'.liurch,  in  Northumberland, 
he  saw  a  glove  hanging  in  a  conspicuous  [ilace 
as  a  challenge  from  some  horse  trooper  of  the 
district.  Taking  it  down  he  produced  it  in  the 
course  of  his  sermon,  and  said,  "  1  hear  Iheri'  is 
one  among  you,  wiio  has  even  in  this  sacred 
place  hung  up  a  glove  in  defiance.  [  challenge 
him  to  compete  witli  me  in  acts  of  Christian 
charily."  A  charge  of  thirteen  articles  was 
ilrawn  up  against  him,  but  his  uncle.  Dr.  Tonslall, 
BislRi|)  of  Durham,  found  a  method  of  dismissing 
them.  His  eumiies,  however,  laid  their  coni- 
plainl  before  Hr.  Bonner,  Bishop  of  London, 
upon  which  he  prei.ared  for  martyrdom.  On 
his  way  to  l,ondon,  to  be  tried  before  the  t'oi-isli 
uarly,  he  broke  liis  leg  by  a  fall,  whicli  put  a 
stop  for  some  time  to  his  journey.  The  person 
n  whose  custody  he  was,  took  occasion  from 
his  circumslaiire  to  retort  upon  him  an  ol)serva- 
ion  he  used  fre(|uently  to  make,  "That  iiolliiiig 
lappens  to  us  but  wdiat  is  intended  for  our

1G25,  was  eminent  for  his  piety  and  learning. 
He  first  studied  medicine  and  afterwards  divinity, 
and  was  made  rector  of  Greystock  in  Cumber- 
land. Not  liking  the  conduct  of  the  church  he 
embiaced  Presbyterianism,  but  was  not  in  favor 
of  Cromwell.  Alter  the'  restoration,  Dr.  Gilpin 
was  fixed  upon  lor  the  bishopric  of  Carli-,le,  Inil 
he  declined.  After  resigning  Greystock  he  pur- 
chased Scaleby  Castle  in  Cumberland,  a  fortress 
of  much  notoriety,  situated  on  the  confines  of 
England  and  Scotland,  and  erected  by  the  English 
to  re|)el  the  invasion  of  the  .Scots.  It  stands

Emprror  Hadrian  to  piwent  the  inroads  of  the

standing  and  is  called  the  Diets  wall.  It  once 
extended  from  Solway  Erilh  to  New  Castle-on-

This  rompleles  the  list,  niin'  eliildrm  in  all. 
The  firsL  Sarah  was  born  ami  died  in  London  ; 
all  the  rest  born  at  Concord.  Thomas  West 
and  family  left  Concord  late  in  17:3G  for  Willing- 
town,  a  small  village  in  one  of  the  lower  counties 
of  Ihe  Province  of  Pennsylvania,  called  Nrw 
Caslli'  County  upon  Delawaiv.  William  Sliiplry 
and  his  niiled  wife  had  conn"  one  yiMr  previous, 
and  this  very  year  hatl  built  Ihem  a  housr, 
corner  of  Fourth  and  Shiplry  shvrls.  He  had 
money,  rneigy  and  business  abilily,  and  soon  the 

village   liinlc    on    new    life  IV his    ^alvaiiizin;,' 

I h.      .Many  (Juaki'rs   in  Chester  Cniinly  (then 

embracing  I)ela\vare  County)  bought  lots,  and 
some,  like  Thomas  West,  came  to  stay,  ami  soon 
the  liltle  village  of  Willingtown  became  the 
borouLdi  of  Wilmington:^'  indeed  this  very  year 
pelitions  were  circulaled  for  the  charier,  and  it 
was  granted  Nov.  1(J,  1739,  by  "  Ceorge  II,  by 
the  grace  of  God,  of  Great  Drilain,  France  and 
Ireland,  King,  defender  of  the  failli,  and  so  forlli." 

This  I  harler  says,  William  Shipley  and  Thomas 


wilh  fjioch  Lewis,  high  constable,  alMjuiikers. 
Tliumas  West  l.(, light  several  h.ls,  one  in  17:;(i 
between  Front  and  Second  stri'els  and  .Market 
and  Wesl,  and  one  or  two  below  Front  on  or 
near  the  < '.In  ir^liana  ;  and  in  1738  he  bought  the 
square  between  Filth  and  Sixth  and  West*  and 
Pasture  (now  Washiuglon)  streets,  and  buill  a 
substantial  two  story  brick  house  (with  black- 
ended  brick)  on  Ihe  north  corner  of  Fifth  and 
West  slreels.  The  same  year  the  Ouakers  buill 
their  lirst  meclin-honse  near  by.  The  house 
(the  lirst  one  buill  on  (Uiaker  Hill,)  was  about  28 
feet  square.  A  wing  Was  added  to  it  on  Fillli 
^Ireelperhaiislhree  score  years  ago.  It  originally 
had  a  walk  on  lup  as  the  raflei-s  and  gables  in- 
dicated. This  ^rand  old  house  stood  the  ravages 
of  time  for  one  humlred  and  forty-five  years. 
Its  age  will  niiMv  vividly  appear  when  we  rellect 
that  at  the  lime  nf  ils  erection  George  Washing- 
ton was  a  lillle  buy,  (six  years  of  age).  xVgain,  it 
was  not  built  in  the  borough  or  city  of  Wilming- 
ton, nor  in  the  rotate  of  tielaware  ;  nor  within 
the  jurisdictiuii  of  the  Lniied  States;  Uncle 
Sam  had  n,,t  yet  been  Ihuiighl  of.  When  torn 
down,  its  walls  al)ovi\  and  in  lln'  cellar,  were  as 
sound  as  when  Iniilt.  Thomas  Wesl's  fuiiily 
consisted  then  of  himself  and  wife,  the  twin 
danghlers  Jn-l  blnoming  nito  wuinanhood,  eigh- 
teen years  „f  age,  Joseph,  a  bny  of  ten,  and 
perhaps  .Mary  ami  Kli/.abeth.  William  is  still  in 
Concord,  learning  the  trade  of  cardwainer  (shoe- 
makerl,  and  Thomas,  the  eldest  son,  is  a  farmer 
there,  bavin-  been  marrie.l  to  Susanna  Powell, 
of  Cheler.Munlhly  Meeting,  21st  of  ;M  mo.  17:;(i, 
at  Provideiiee  .Meeting.  The  twiiw  Were  mar- 
ried in  17  12  and  17  13,  and  in  171:'.  Thomas 
W'est  deiiarled  this  life,  .Mler  e'lvcting  his  new 
and  last  earthly  dwelling  hou-:e,  lew  were  lii.s

My  impression  is  thtit  Paul  Stern,  the  aforesaid 
decedent,  was  Ih,'  r,dhi'r  of  fieo.  Stern  and  of 
Frederick  SI.m-ii,  and  there  we  leave  it,  until 
more  direct  evidence  is  formed.

resided  one  mile  north-east  of  Centerville,  Dela-

near  to  the  historic  Brandywino,  and  only  a  few 
miles  south  of  that  memorable  batlie-field  of  the

(;leveii  in  tunnhei' ;  only  two  of  whom  are  living- 
at  this  time  (1885),  Amos  and  Rachel.  My 
brother  George  has  said,  "  Aunt  Rachel  was  a 
kind,  and  lovely  woman,  in  mitldle  and  laler 
life  she  was  an  invalid,  and  underwent  a  surgical 
operation,  thai  was  successful,  and  added  twenty- 
five  years  to  her  life,  but  she  was  never  strong 
and  vigiirous  afterward."  Isaac  was  rather 
^ll(lli  and  stout,  an  energetic  man  of  business,

li;,  18;59,  unin.,  agvd  thirty-six  years.  He  was 
a  carpenter,  and  when  the  rail  road  briilge  at 
Coatesville  was  finished,  lie  proposed  to  jump 
oir  of  it  into  the  water  for  SI 00.  His  banter 
was  accepted,  and  he  made  a  large  parachule, 
some  thirteen  feet  in  diamelei-,  lo  aid  him  in  Ihe 
descent.  My  brothers,  George  and  Jacob  T., 
were  among  the  sj)ectators.  The  latter  gives  the 
incidents  of  the  day  thus : 

It  was  the  Fourth  of  July,  ]8.",2,  not  very  long 
after  the  Columbia  U.  H.  was  piil  in  operalion. 
The  day  was  very  line;  the  new  railroad,  Ihe 
high  bridge,  ami  the  jump,  combined  lo  allract 
thousands  to  the  spot.  The  jump  was  to  take 
place  at  1  P.  .M.,  but  it  was  nearly  evening  before 
it  was  accomplished.  The  one  hundred  dollars 
was  (piickly  raised  by  voluntary  subscription  on 
the  grouml.  It  was  rumored  that  the  monev 
would  be  rehiiided,  and  no  jumping  done.      Piit 

jahers,  we  have  paid  our  money,  and  now  you 
have  got  to  jump,  or  \v(^  will  throw  you  olT." 
After  a  long  delay,  Abiier  came  to  the  middle  of 
the  bridge  wilh  ins  mammoth  iiaracliiite,  and 
his  friends  put  a  strong  girth  around  under  hi-, 
arms  ;iiid  back,  with  strong  straps  lo  Ihe  long 
slair.  'I'his  arrangement  would  hold  his  body 
almost  entirely  above  the  centre  of  the  parachute, 
while  his  friends  earnestly  urged  him  not  (o  do 
so,  Init  lo  lake  hold  of  the  lower   end  of  the

Tally  to  all  advice,  and  there  was  much  of  it, 
and  said,  "  my  friends,  I  tliank  you  for  your 
iiderest  in  my  welfare,  but  I  must  be  allowed  to 
have  my  own  way."  lie  and  all  others  agreed 
Ufion  one  wise  thing — to  swing  off  from  the  side 
of  the  bridge  precisely  over  the  water,  wliich  is 
only  a  small  stream  at  that  plac,..  To  that, 
[lerliaps,  he  owed  his  life.  There  was  about  two 
feet  of  water  where  he  fell,  wliich  saved  him, 
for  his  parachute  was  of  no  use  whatever,  as  it 
causi'd   '  ini  to  fall  on  his  back  and  shoulders. 

lb'  hi  !v  a  very  short  address  to  the  crowd, 
saying  tliat  it  was  "very  uncertain  how  it  would 
come  out."  Fie  no  doubt  felt  great  anxiety  at 
that  moment,  but  ordered  the  rope  cut,  and 
was  (juickly  in  the  water  of  the  Urandywine, 
some  eighty  feet  below.  He  got  up  and  walked 
to  the  hotel,  amid  the  plaudits  of  four  thousand 
voices.  It  was  the  opinion  of  those  who  had 
lieen  practicing  with  the  parachute  on  the  high 
banks  ai-ouml,  wliere  a  jump  of  from  six  lo 
twelve  feet  could  be  had,  that  if  he  had  taken 
hold  of  the  end  of  the  staff,  the  parachute  would 
have  let  him  down  nicely.

THE   AMERICAN   GILPIN    ANCESTRV. 

(For  tin-  Em^liih  Branch  sec  Stent  Ancalry:) 


15.  Thomas  Gilpin,  of  Warborougli,  in  Oxford- 
sliiie,  llie  youngest  son  of  Thomas  Gilpin,  of 
Mill  Hill,  was  bom  in  1622,  and  died  12lii  mo. 
(then  Feb.)  3d,  1682.  He  married  abont  1615, 
Joan  Bartliolomew,  and  had  three  sons,  Joseph, 
Isaac  and  Thomas.  He  was  a  colonel  in  tiie 
Eni;lish  army  on  the  Republican  side,  and  at  the 
bailie  of  \V(n-cester,  September  3,  1G51,  where 
tlie  royal  army  of  Charles  First  was  overthrown 
by  Ci-omwi'll,  called  by  the  latter  his  crowning 
meicy.  TliDiiias  West,*  who  had  married  his 
sister,  Ann  Gilpin,  acted  as  major.  Soon  after, 
both  of  Ihcni  became  convinced  of  the  truth  of 
the  piimiplcs  of  the  Society  of  ]*'riend.-  and 
united  with  them.  Thomas  Gilpin  was  a  preacher 
in  that  Society  for  forty  years.  In  KiGl  he  was 
detained  seven  weeks  in  the  Marshal's  custody 
at  Oxford,  for  refusing  to  take  the  oath  of  alle- 
giance. .May  2!ith,  1670,  a  meeting  was  held  at 
his  house  for  which  tlie  justice  fined  iiim  £20, 
and  on  the  26lli  of  June,  of  tlie  same  year, 
anulher  meeting  was  held  at  his  iiouse,  for  which 
olit  nre  the  oflicers  wereautliorized  to  break  into 
it.  which  they  did,  breaking  open  locks  and  bolls, 
and  took  away  his  goods,  so  that  lie  was  left 
without  cooking  utensils,  bed  or  food.  Soon 
alter,  liis  corn  from  three  acres  of  land  and  two 
pi-s  were  taken.  In  1672,  by  the  king's  letters 
p.iliiit  many  persons  were  discharged  from  i)rison, 
some  of  whom  hail  been  conlincd  a  long  time. 
From  C)\ford  jail  lifteen  were  set  free,  among 
Ihem  being  Thomas  Gilpin.  The  Gilpin  family 
ollcn  suffered  in  the  service  of  the  Master.

16.  JnsKiMi  Gn.riN-,  born  in  KWl-l,  married  Han- 
nah Glover,  in  16L)1,  and  with  his  wile  and  two 
small  children  emigrated  to  America  in  1695. 
They  were  Quakers,  and  the  rough  experiences 
of  their  lif;  thus  far,  warned  them  to  seek  wliile 
still  young  and  strong  a  refuge  in  the  New  World. 
They  knew  that  toils  and  i.rivations  awaited 
them,  that  each  man  must  d.'petid  on  himself 
alo.H',  the  others,  also,  having  all  they  could  do 
or  bear  in  the  ta>k  of  Mibiluing  the  wilderness 
and  rearing  a  home,  lint  they  were  children 
of  the  martyrs,  inheriting  their  spirit,  and  with 
firm  trust  in  God  felt  no  fear.  Among  the  ship's 
company  on  tlie  voyage  hither,  ^vere  I  he  ancestors 
of  the  Coats  and  Morris  famili...  cf  I'liiladelphia, 
coming  like  them  to  cast  in  thi.'ir  lot  with  the 
William  I'enn  settleim-nt.  They  landed  at  New 
Castle  U[)(Ui  Delaware,  ami  wemling  Ih.eil'  devious

is  now  known  as  Dilwnrtlilown,  Ciu  '-.  '  ,11111!;, 
Pennsylvania.  The  fir>t  want  of  the  family  was 
a  shelter.  This  was  (inickly  and  .he;, ply  fnun.l ; 
a  cave  by  the  side  of  a  rock,  and  no  doubt  near 
a  spring  of  water,  furnishing  them  a  home.  Here 
for  some  time  they  contrived  to  be  quite  com-

blood  high  in  the  community,  for  uprightness,  and 
was  urbane  and  gentlemanly  in  his  every-day

Ihis  partial  and  imperfect  notice  of  tlie  Gilpin 
Ancestry  in  America,  by  quoting  from  Fronde's 
History  of  England,  vol.  IV,  page  358,  some  re- 
marks of  Rev.  Bernard  Gilpin,  (The  Apostle  of  the 
Noilh)  born  at  Kentmere,  1517;  son  of  Edwin 
No.  10.  He  was  educated  in  the  church  of 
Ilomi',  and  was  colemiiorary  with  Calimer  in 
Ihe  twilight  morn  of  the  Reformaliun.  Lalimer 
h.id  made  some  hard  hits  in  his  sermon  l>eforo 
the  king  and  his  courtiers,  and  Gilpin  folhjwed. 
"  Look,"  Gilpin  said,  "  how  Lady  Avarice  has 
set  on  work  altogether.  Mighty  men,  gentlemen, 
and  all  rich  men,  do  rob  and  spoil  the  poor,  to 


Imn    Ihem    fr.im    Iheir  livings    and    from    Iheir 

ridil.;    and   ever  Ihe   weakest  go    to   llu'    wall  ; 

and  being  thus    tormented  and   piil    IVimi   Ihuir 

rights  at  home,   they  come  to  Lundun  as  lo  a 

place  where  justice  should  be  had,  and  this  they 

can  have  no  more.     They  are  suitors  to  great 

men,  and  cannot  come  to  their   speech.     Their 

servants  must  have  bribes,  and  they   no  small 

ones;  all  love  bribes.      Hut  such  as  be  dainty  (o

it  slrange  to  them  when  they  shall  pray.    Whoso 

sloppeth   his   ear  at   the  crying  of  the  poor,  he 

shall  cry  and   not  be  heard.     With    what   glad 

hearts  and  clear  consciences  might  noblemen  go

are  robbed  on  every  side,  and  that  of  such   as

to  keep  in  their  vileness.     Eor  turning  poor  men 

out  of  their  holds  they  lake  il  for  no  olfense,  but 

say  the  land  is  their  own,  and  they  turn  thein 

out  of  their  shrouds  like  mice.     Thousands  in

Ahab,  to  make  the  dogs  lap  tlie  blood  of  them,

Maryland  or  the  lower  country"  till  <Sth  mo.  10,

general  interest,  and  better  materials  were  pro- 
vided. A  relative  of  the  family,  Mr.  Remington, 
of  i'Iiil;iilol|iliiri,  gave  hini  a  box  of  malerials, 
;uiil  boini,'  .-ample  engravings.  This  was  an  era 
in  the  cliilil's  life.  He  sat  over  tiie  bo.\-  with 
eyis  full  of  delight,  nor  could  he  relinquish  his 
treasure  whi^n  iied-time  approaelied,  hut  jjlaced 
it  close  beside  him  on  a  chair,  th.d  when  he 
awoke  at  limes  he  might  put  out  his  liand  and 
satisfy  himself  that  it  was  there;  that  liis  iiappi- 
riCas  in  possessing  it  was  really  true  and  not  a 
pleasing  dream.  At  the  early  dawn  he  was  up, 
and  carrying  the  bo.x  to  a  room  in  the  garret  he 
.-pread  a  ranvas,  prepared  a  pallet  and  began  a 
copy  of  uijc  of  the  engravings.  Knrhaiiled  by 
his  art  lie  forgot  school  hours  and  joined  the 
family  al  dinner  without  meidioniiig  ids  work 
and  -ludio,  to  whicli  he  however  at  once  n- 
luined,  ami  thus  he  spent  several  days  spell- 
bound with  ins  new  found  joy.  The  school- 
master linally  sent  to  know  the  cause  of  his 
altsence,  and  Ids  mother,  at  once  su-^iiecting  the 
truth,  paid  the  garret  a  visit.  Tliere  sat  tier 
truant  boy,  who  should  yet  sit  before  kings,  at 
work,  not  upon  a  copy  but  a  composition,  guided 
oidy  by  his  own  exalted  genius  and  exipn'site 
delicacy  of  sight,  as  keen  and  sure  as  the  touch 
of  the  true  musician.  He  had  fornu'd  a  [licltn-e 
as  complete  in  the  arrangement  of  tints  as  the 
v;oik  of  tlie  most  skillful  artist.  It  is  rarely  in- 
dei'd  that  a  gifted  child  does  not  owe  something 
of  his  genius  to  his  mother;  she  at  least  pos- 
hL:,sed  suilicient  appreciation  to  lie  almost  as 
d.li.dded  as  himself,  and  her  vexation  at  once 
disappearing  slie  kissed  him  in  a  transport  of  joy, 
jaumising  to  intercede  with  his  father  and  school- 
master I  hat  he  should  not  be  punished.  This 
bioL;ia|iher,  .1.  Gault,  says,  "Sixty-seven  years 
aluiward  the'  writer  of  this  memoir  had  the 
gialilication  to  see  this  jjiece  in  the  same  room 
Willi  the  sublime  paiiding  of  '  Christ  Ilejected,'

S'lijiienl  knowledge  and  experience,  he  had  not 
Ihmmi  able  to  surpass."

His  kind  frieml  and  benefactor  again  called  and 
seeing  his  progress,  asked  that  he  be  allowed 
lo  accompany  him  home,  which  was  granted. 
Everything  in  town  was  a  surprise  and  a  study  to 
the  artist  boy  ;  the  shipping,  paintings,  books, 
etc.  He  came  home  loaded  with  treasures  and 
full  of  new  impulses.  Soon  other  friends  and 
patrons  found  him  out;  Anthony  Wayne  (after- 
wards General,)  Dr.  Jonatlian  Morris,  and  a  Mr. 
Flower,  took  great  interest  in  the  now  rising 
artist.  Mr.  I'lower  had  a  friend,  Mr.  Ross,  a 
lawyer  in  the  town  of  Lmicaster,  a  place  then  of 
high  I'ejiute  Ibr  wealth,  intelligence,  and  good 
society,  who  invited  him  there  to  take  tlie  por- 
traits of  Mrs.  Ross  and  his  children.  Having 
obtained  the  consent  of  his  parciils,  lie  acci'pliHl 
the  invitation.  It  was  just  the  place  wlieiv  the 
youthful  artist  was  likely  to  meet  with  that  tlat- 
tering  notice  which  is  the  best  stimulus  of  juve- 
nile talent ;  and  his  success  was  so  great  from 
till'  numbers  wauling  pictures,  that  Ibr  ipiite  a 
time  it  was  dillicult  lo  satisfy  I  he  demands  upon 
his  time  aii<l  attention.  Soon  after.  Dr.  Smith, 
of  fliila.lelphia.  Provost  of  the  College,  was  at- 
tracled  |,y  hi^  painting,  " The  Death  of  Socrates," 
and  (ilTiicd  him  an  oppuilunity  to  study  classi- 
cal litrialiire.  I  lis  falhi'i-  again  consenting,  he 
well!  to  fliiladeliihia,  liiiding  his  new  associa- 
tions there  all  favorable  lo  his  advance  in  his  one 
and  all-absorbing  theme,  the  line  arts.  He  was 
now  sixteen  years  of  age,  his  aspirations  all  en- 
kindled with  tlie  glow  of  youth  and  hope.  About 
this  time  the  country  was  greatly  excited  over 
liraddoek's  defeat.  His  brother  Samuel  was  a 
militia  captain,  and  lienjamin  West  himself 
cauglil  a  little  of  the  soldier  lever,  and  beat 
young  Anthony  Wayne  al  drill.  About  l7oo-(J 
lie  was  call. Ml  home  lo  see  hisinollier  pass  away. 
Her  funeral,  and  the  di-lrcbS  which  the  evnit 
naturally  oeea-ioiied  to  hrr  family,  by  all  of 
whom  she  was  tenderly  beloved,  detained  the 
young  artist  at  his  father's  Ibr  some  time.  On 
his  return  to  I'liiladelphia,  he  again  resided  at 
the   house  of  his   brolher-in-law,   Mv.    Clarkson,  •

in  his  leisure  time  he  was  attracting-  many  sitters, 
ami  liis  popularity  as  a  portrait  painltT  con- 
stantly increased.  But  lie  was  conscious  lie 
must  see  Ijetter  pictures  llian  liis  own  if  lie  lioped 
for  distinction,  and  tliis  induced  liiin  to  practice 
llie  closest  economy,  with  a  view  to  spending 
some  time  among  the  art  galleries  of  I'^urope. 
The  care  with  wliich  he  laid  by  his  earnings 
assured  him  he  might  accompli. h  lliis  ere  long. 
His  prices  al  this  lime  were  two  and  a-lialC 
gumeas  for  a  bust  portrait,  and  five  for  a  hall' 
lenglh.  Nut  long  after  this  he  visited  i\ew  York 
on  professional  business,  ami  while  Ihei-e  he 
heard  of  a  vessel  loading  with  grain  for  Haly,  as 
the  crops  tliere  were  short.  On  this  he  madi^ 
arrangements  to  sail,  and  directly  after,  one  of  his 
l)alrons  named  Kelly,  surprised  him  with  the 
present  of  lifly  guineas.  Embarking,  he  arriveil 
safely  at  Leghorn,  and  proceeded  from  tli':'nce  to 
Home,  his  point  of  destination.  It  was  during 
the  p(jntiiicale  of  Pope  Rezzonico,  and  society  in 
Home  was  at  its  height  and  superior  to  that  of 
any  cily  of  Christendom,  from  the  number  of  ac- 
complished strangers  of  all  countries  and  reli- 
gions, who,  in  constant  succession,  flocked  to  this 
shrine  of  antiquity.  lie  arrived  on  the  tenth  of 
July,  J7iiU,  and  was  introduced  as  an  American 
(Juaker  come  to  study  the  iuie  arts.  This  was 
so  unusual  a  thing  that  it  reached  the  ears  of  a 
Mr.  Hobinson,  afterwards  Lord  Grantham,  who 
al  once  had  a  strong  desire  to  see  him,  and  called 
upon  him  before  he  had  time  lo  dress  or  refresh 
himself,  insisting  that  he  should  dine  wilh  him. 
W  bile  dining,  that  gentleman  inquired  what 
letle-rs  of  introduction  he  had,  and  upon  being 
iniormed,  said  it  was  very  singular,  but  they  were 
all  his  most  intimate  friends,  and  added  that  he 
w  as  engaged  to  meet  them  that  very  evening  and 
wouM  like  Mr.  West  lo  accompany  him.  This  \ 
f.ivorable  circumstance  anil  kind  alli.'iilion  lo  him 
.1.-:  a  siranger,  were  always  renuMnbered  by  the  j 
aili^t  as  among  the  many  pleasant  incidents  of 
his  life,  which  till  its  close  he  loved  to  recall.  In  j 
Ihe  evening  Mr.  Robinson  conducted  him  to  the  j 
house  of  Mr.  Crispigue,  an  English  gentleman  j 
\sho   had   long  resided  in  Home,  and  where   Ihe   I 


party  was  lo  be  held.  Amr.ng  Ihe  di.-;liiigni^lic.i 
li.;isoiis  whom  .Mr.  .West  met  in  the  comiiaiiy, 
was  the  celebrated  Cardinal  Albani,  who,  though 
quite  blind,  had  ae.piiicd  by  the  exquisite  deli- 
cacy of  his  lonch  ,uid  the  combining  powers  of 
his  miml,  snili  a  percejUion  of  ancient  beauty, 
that  he  e.xcelleil  all  the  virtuosi  then  in  Rome  in 
Ihe  correctness  of  his  knowledge  of  the  veiily 
and  peculiarities  of  the  smallest  medals  and  in- 
taglios. 

Mr.  ttobinson  conducted  Mr.  West  lo  the 
inner  apartmeni  where  Ihe  Caidinal  was  silting, 
and  said,  "1  have  llie  honor  of  presenting  a 
young  Aimaican,  who  has  a  letter  ol'  introduc- 
tion lo  your  iMuineme,  and  who  has  comi'  lo 
Italy  to  study  Ihe  line  arts."  The  Cardinal 
thinking  he  must  be  an  Indian,  exclaimed,  -Is 
he  black  or  while  ■^"  and  when  answeiv.l  llul  |,e 
was  lair,  cried  still  more  surprised,  "What!  as 
fair  a-;  I  aiir':'"  This  la-t  expression  caused  a 
good  deal  of  mirth  at  Ihe  ( ;.,rdinal's  expense,  his 
complexion  being  the  darkest  Italian  olive,  while 
West's  was  unusually  fair. 

About  Ibis  time  Mengs  was  in  the  -/.enilh  nf 
his  popularity.  WesI  was  introduced  to  him, 
and  he  greatly  surprised  that  an  American  should 
come  to  l^)me  lo  study  llie  line  ai't^,  ■,!  ,,nee  re- 
(piesleil  thai  he  would  show  him  a  specimen  of 
his  drawing.  Mr.  West  r.'plied  that  he  had 
never  learned  lo  draw  but  could  paint  a  liltle. 
It  was  then  agreed  that  he  should  paint  .Mr. 
Robinson's  porliait  piivately,  and  when  finished 
Ihat  it  should  be  exhiiiited  wilh  other  pi. 'lures  at 
a  favorable  time  for  criticism  among  arlisis  and 
good  judges,  without  their  having  been  informed 
who  Ihe  artist  was,  so  as  lo  oblain  an  opinion  nf 
merit  only.  .Mr.  Ciispi-ue  was  one  of  the  Iwo 
hientis  in'the  secret,  lie  lived  as  a  Roman  geu- 
lleman,  and  twice  a  year  eiilertaine.l  a  grand 
a-s.anl.lage  at  his  house,  all  the  nobility  of  Ihe 
cily,  and  strangers  emineid  for  rank,  birth  or 
talents,  being  invited.  It  was  agreed  thai  at  one 
of  these  pai-lies,  soon  to  lake  place,  the  portrait 
should  be  exhibited.  The  plan  was  carriid  onl, 
and  the  pielnre  allracted  great  and  unu-uat,  but 
favorable  criticism.      As  llie  gu.'>ls  continued   lo

not  .M.  n-^,  but  tliat  young  Oualcer  student  from 
Amerira,  pointing  to  West.  At  once  all  eyes 
were  tuiiird  n[)()n  liim,  and  the  Italians  in  their 
enlhii^iaMu  ran  and  embraced  him.  Thus  Ihe 
best  judecs  pronounced  bini  by  this  pidnrr  oidy 
seconil  to  Ibe  first  painter  then  in  Ib.ine.  .Miaigs 
himsrlf,  alter  seeing  it,  gave  the  arli-t  advirc 
which  h.-  .'ver  gratefully  reuK'mbcred.  If,.  Inid 
iiim  hr  h,,d  no  need  to  train  painting  at  Heme. 
"Yon  have  already,  sir,"  he  said,  -Ihe  mechani- 
cal [)aii  of  your  art.  I  reciinnnend  you  to  see 
and  exannne  our  works  of  meiit  here,  make 
half  a  do/.i'U  drawings  of  the  best  statues,  then 
go  to  i'lMn^nco  and  see  wdial  lias  been  done  for 
art  in  the  collections  there;  then  proceed  to 
liologne  and  study  the  works  of  Carracci.  'i'lien 
vi.-il  I'arnia  and  examine  closely  the  pictures  of

W  lit  n  you  have  made  this  lour,  come  back  to

This  sensible  advice  suited  West;  be  decided 
lo  folhnv  il,  and  did  so.  His  intention  was  to 
visit  fiance  and  England  on  bis  way  back  lo 
America,  which  programme  also  he  carried  out, 
and  .after  leaving  l''rance  arrived  in'  I.ondon,

iimii  to  puiiit  hi-loi|cal  subjects  for  the  mansion 
of  l.ord  llockingham,  in  Yorkshire.  This  and 
other  favorable  intimations  soon  decided  him  to 
remain  in  London,  and  bis  means  now  enabling 
him  to  support  a  wife,  liis  first  thought  was  to 
secure  there  the  presence  of  one  who  had  long 
possessed  his  heart.  This  favored  young  lady 
was  Miss  Shewell,  of  Philadelphia,  and  he  wrote 
to  tiis  father  to  bring  tier  to  London.  They  had 
met  in  her  native  city  and  fell  in  love  after  the 
most  ai.i])roved  romantic  fashion,  their  courtship 
being  attended  with  all  the  impediments  and 
sorrows  of  romani'e.  Instead  of  barddiearled 
parents,  her  brother  in  Ibis  ra-e  proved  Ihe 
tyrant.  Mr.  West  was  then  poor  and  but  little 
known,  and  Stephen  Sliewell  wi^^lH■d  hi.-,  sister  to 
marry  another  siiilor,  which,  upon  iier  refusing 
to  do,  the  artist  was  lorliiddeii  lo  come  to  the 
bouse.  They  Iheii  met  elsewhere  and  became 
engaged,  Mr.  West  deciding  to  vi-it  Kurope  and 
prosecute  his  studies,  thinking  correctly  this  to 
be  the  sjieediest  and  surest  way,  not  only  to  suc- 
cess in  his  chosen  path,  but  to  obtaining  the 
hand  of  the  woman  he  loved.  I'poii  learning  of 
the  engagement,  her  brollierat  oiiceiocked  her 
ill  hia-  chamber  uiilil  alter  her  lover's  departure

wab  evident  that  Providence  had  a  hand  in  the

Mr.  West  was  in  waiting  for  Miss  Shewell 
w  lull  she  arriverl,  and  they  were  mari'ied  Sep- 
l  mher  2,  17G5,  in  the  Church  of  St.  Martins  in 
the  Fields.  This  sketch  is  taken  from  a  letter  in 
l.So,S,  by  Josopli  K.  Swift,  M.  D.,  of  Easlon,  Pa., 
to  Horatio  G.  Jones,  Esq.,  corresponding  secretary 
of  the  Historical  Society  of  Pennsylvania. 

Ileiijamiii  West  had  a  prosperous  and  success- 
ful life  in  London,  full  of  interest,  and  great 
liwpiiiarily  in  his  profession,  lie  was  one  of  the 
Kiiiy's  right  hand  men  in  the  formation  of  "The 
lioyal  Academy  of  the  Arts  in  London,"  in  17(J8, 
wliirh  e.Kinted  more  taste  for  tlie  line  arts  in

uiiiininiously  elected  liis  successor  by  the  mem-

ii::.i  liis  own  expression,  "humbly  declined,"  ad-

Our  space  permits  us  to  give  only  an  outline 
of  a  life  so  full  of  interest,  tlie  only  satisfactory 
account  lieing  llie  life  of  Henjarnin  West*  in  two 
parts;  the  lir-t  publi-hed  in  !  S]  C,  and  the  second 
was  nearly  all  priiiled  at  llie  lime  of  Mr.  West's 
last  sickness.  His  esleeiiied  wife  died  Decem- 
ber G,  1817,  having  been  a  sufferer  for  several 
years,  and  thankfulness  for  tier  release  from  pain 
softened  the  pang  of  sorrow  for  her  loss,  wliicli 
to  her  linsbanii  was  irreparable.  They  had 
been  united  for  over  half  a  century.  Slu}  was  in 
many  respects  a  woman  of  elevated  character. 
The  "last,  illness  of  Mr.  West  was  slow  and  lan- 
guishing, it  being  rather  a  general  decay  of  nature 
than  any  specific  malady. 

One  of  the  many  ani'cdofi's  of  Mr.  West  may 
here  be  given.  When  President  Adams  was 
minister  at  the  Court  of  St.  ,lames,  he  often  saw 
Ills  countryman,  Penjainiii  West,  the  late  Presi- 
dent of  tlie  [{oval  Academy.  .Mr.  West  always 
retained  a  strong  love  for  his  native  land.  One 
day  he  said  to  Mr.  Adams,  "  Would  you  like  to 
take  a  walk  wilh  me  and  seethe  cause  of  the 
American  Uevolnlidii?"  A  smile  came  over  Mr, 
Adams  face  at  Ibis,  and  consenlin-,  a  lime  was 
lixed  for  Wu:  next  iimining,  when  Mr.  West  look 
him  into  Hyde  Park  to  a  spot  near  the  Serpen- 
tine River,  where  he  gave  him  the  following 
narrative  :  "  Ceorge  lln'  Third  came  lo  Ha,'  throne 
a  young  man,  surroundeil  by  ll.illering  cumiiei-s, 
one  of  whose  fre(pienl  lopii-s  il  was  lu  declaim 
against  the  meanness  of  his  palace,  wliich  was, 
Ihey  said,  not  tit  for  a  monarchy  like  lOngland: 
there  was  not  a  sovereign  in  ]viro|)e  so  meanly 
lodged;  that  his  siirry,  dingy  nid  brick  jialace  of 
St.  James  looked  like  a  stable,  and  that  he  ought: 
to  build  him  a  palace  suited  lo  his  kingdom. 
The  King  was  loii.t  of  architecture,  and  would 
from  this  circumslance  more  readil\'  listen  to  such 
suggestions,  which  were,  in  fad,  ail  true.  This 
spot  iiiat  you  sei'  liel'e  was  selei'led  for  the  site, 
between  here  and  there,  which  was  marked  out.

On  the  loth  of  Marcli,  IS-JO,  at  his  house  in 
Newman  street,  London,  Mr.  West  expired  with- 
out a  struggle,  aged  eighty-one  years  and  live 
months,  and  on  the  I  weiity-ninlh  w,is  iiilerred 
with  gival  funeral  pomp  in  .^t.  I'aul's  Cathedral. 
The  account  of  his  honorable  interment,  after 
the  style  and  custom  of  England's  nobility,  is  in- 
serted as  an  historic  fad. 

lieiijamin  West  left  but  four  ciiildren,  aii<l  Init 
little  is  known  of  them  since  his  death.  They 
were  then  in  middle  life.  M  his  funeral  we

Benjamin   West,  as  previously  stated,  expired  March  10,  1820,  and  ly  the  Royal  Academy  was  given  a 

pulilic  Funeral,  and  as  some  may  he  curious  to  know  its  manner  and  form,  I  inst-rt 

the  account  giren  in  his  life  {pages  244  to  251  inclusive.) 


S.ion  aflcr  Mr.  West's  decease,  a  deputalion   | 
uoiii  lliL'  Coiim-il  ol'  the  Royal  Academy  wailed   j 
on  lii-  Mills  and  the  execnlors,  to  apprise  Uieiii    \ 
of  llir  inli'niiuii  of  that  body  to  honour  the    re-   i 
mains  i.l'  Iheir  lale  President,  by  attending  them    | 
111  his  f,'rave,  according  to  tlie  ceremonial  adoiiled 
un  (he  jjublic  interment  of  the  late  Sir  Josluia 
Reynolds,  in  St.  Paul's  Calhedral.     His  Majesty   \ 
having,  as  I'alron  of  the  Iloyal  Academy,  given    I 
liis  gi-ai:iuus  sanction  tliat  similar  honours  sliould 
be  [laid  to  the  late  venerable  President,  his  sons 
and    e.Kecutors   adopted    active    preparations    to 
carry    (lie    arrangement    into    effect.      xVs    the 
bchoola  uf  the  Royal  Academy  were  closeil,  and 
all  its  limctions  suspended,  by  the  death  of   the 
late  I'lv-iilent,  it  was  of  material  importance  on 
this  aicijunt,   and  with  the    view  to    the  usual 
prt  paiMliiry  arrangements  for  the  annual  exhibi- 
lion,   ilial    the  funeral  should   not    be    delayed; 
and  .1--   early  a  day  as   practicable  was   therefore 
lixed    lur    the    [Hiblic    interment    in     St.    I'aLil's 
Calhedial.     The  obvious  consequence,  liowever, 
(if  this    lias    been,  thai   owing    to    the   absence 
fi-om  Imvn,  at  this  particular  season,  of  so  many 
nublemeii    and  gentlemen  of   the  highest  rank, 
and  llii'    indisposition  of  several    others,  many 
warm  ailmirers  and  friends  of  this  celebrated  ar- 
list  and  amiable  man,  who  have  during  his  long 
lilV,   hmidured  him  with    their    friendship,  and 
wild   have  been    particularly  di'sirous  iif  payiii.r^ 
their   1,1,1  tribute  of  respe.'l  l.i  his  reniaiiK,  have

I   treat  by  reading  an  essay.     She  was  followed  by 

Cyrus  Stern,  of  Wilmington,  who  gave  an   e.x-

ahvays  a  smile  and  clieerfLiI  face  lor  every  one
