About Nathan Haines
Life
Nathan Haines took an active part in the American Revolution. His tombstone is south of the place where the old Coles Church stood, in Colestown Cemetery, in Evesham, Burlington Co., N. J. Nathan raised a company of soldiers for the Revolution. He was opposed to war as at variance with his Quaker principles but his wife Dorcas Pendergrast of the West Indies, convinced him that a man of his wealth should use it and his influence for his country. He raised a small army and set out for Perth Amboy, N. J. A parrot on the way called to him "Quaker, quaker, fighting quaker," as he still wore the quaker garb. He was captured by the British at Haddenfield but later released. When he returned his home had been plundered and his cattle driven off. From Wm. Lippincott's paper "The Moorestown Republican," Moorestown, N. J. 1991.
