On his first arrival, he appears to have tarried for a short time with the Friends that had arrived the year before and settled at Darby, but he soon located a large tract of land in Springfield township, whereon he settled and named it “The Home House.” He was among the most eminent of the public Friendsthat came over with the first settlers, and was so esteemed in his native country, where meetings had been held at his house, and where he had suffered by fines and imprisonment. His certificate, which is recorded at Darby says, “he hath adorned the Gospel of Christ.” He held many public trusts: was a Justice of the Peace, one of the Judges of the Court, and on several occasions was chosen a member of the Provincial Assembly. He was one of those who signed the testimony against the celebrated George Keith. The descendants of this worthy patriarch are numerous; those bearing his name in this County, Chester County, and in the City of Philadelphia, are probably all descended from him. His death occurred in 1703, at the age of seventy-three years; his wife having died nearly four years earlier. His children, so far as is known, were Elizabeth who intermarried with John Mendenhall; George, with Jane Maddock; Ann, with John Worrilow; John, with Susanna Lewis of Haverford, and Richard, with Elizabeth Hayes of Marple.</ref>
