  • David Grubb Post, 07 May 1999
    http://genforum.genealogy.com/grubb/messages/165.html David Grubb post, 07 May 1999 Ever since 1893, there has been a debate within the Delaware Grubb family concerning its origins. New evidence has been discovered that finally establishes that John Grubb, our immigrant ancestor was christened in Stoke Climsland, Cornwall on August 16, 1652, the son of Henry Grubb Jr and his wife, Wilmot. For the last nine months, Wilmer Grubb, Harold Mullins and myself have been working to update Gilbert Cope’s 1893 history of the family. Numerous other people are contributing material for the project. Below are the results of the portion of this project dealing with the family’s origins. Part one discusses the Grubb families in England. Part two discusses John Grubb's ancestors including the new evidence. Part three is a new biography of John Grubb. PART ONE THE GRUBB FAMILIES OF ENGLAND: To members of the Delaware Grubb family, Judge Ignatius Cooper Grubb (1841 ‐ 1927) of the Delaware Court of Appeals is remembered for his disproved theory that the Delaware family was descended from nobility. We now know that John Grubb, our immigrant ancestor was not a member of the prominent Wiltshire Grubbe family, and that Frances, his wife was not the daughter of Sir Henry Vane, "the younger." However, to genealogists of various Grubb families throughout the world, Ignatius Grubb is recognized as the first modern family historian who determined that the Grubb families of England are in fact transplants from Denmark and Germany. The surname Grubb, Grubbe and its variations do not appear in the first census of England, taken in the late eleventh century.

PA-6225 Location: 611 Meetinghouse Road, Upper Chichester Township, Delaware County, Pennsylvania Present Owner: Concord Monthly Meeting, Religious Society of Friends Present Use: Meeting House used semi-annually for religious worship Significance: Chichester Meeting House is a well-preserved and unusual example of eighteenth-century Quaker meeting-house architecture in the Delaware Valley. Erected between 1769 and 1771, the building follows a plan with few contemporary counterparts. Most extant American meeting-house designs of the period place the main entrance(s) and elevated seating area known as the facing bench on the long walls. At Chichester, both features are located in the gable ends. Again rejecting convention, Chichester's designers partitioned the building in such a way as to exclude the facing bench from one of the two meeting rooms. This layout may reflect the influence of local domestic architecture. It may as easily represent an interpretation of English meeting-house design or testify to the relative status of Chichester's men's and women's meetings for business. In any case, the building's configuration deserves further study. Chichester Meeting House also exhibits distinctive features of a smaller scale. These include: a decorative water table that highlights comers and doors, a comer fireplace, an early iron stove, and a secondary, waist-high partition door.

  • Maryland Historical Magazine, 1942, Volume 37, Issue No. 3
    G ^ MARYLAND HISTORICAL MAGAZINE VOL. XXXVII SEPTEMBER, 1942 No. } BARBARA FRIETSCHIE By DOROTHY MACKAY QUYNN and WILLIAM ROGERS QUYNN In October, 1863, the Atlantic Monthly published Whittier's ballad, "' Barbara Frietchie." Almost immediately a controversy arose about the truth of the poet's version of the story. As the years passed, the controversy became more involved until every period and phase of the heroine's life were included. This paper attempts to separate fact from fiction, and to study the growth of the legend concerning the life of Mrs. John Casper Frietschie, nee Barbara Hauer, known to the world as Barbara Fritchie. I. THE HEROINE AND HER FAMILY On September 30, 1754, the ship Neptune arrived in Phila- delphia with its cargo of " 400 souls," among them Johann Niklaus Hauer. The immigrants, who came from the " Palatinate, Darmstad and Zweybrecht" 1 went to the Court House, where they took the oath of allegiance to the British Crown, Hauer being among those sufficiently literate to sign his name, instead of making his mark.2 Niklaus Hauer and his wife, Catherine, came from the Pala- tinate.3 The only source for his birthplace is the family Bible, in which it is noted that he was born on August 6, 1733, in " Germany in Nassau-Saarbriicken, Dildendorf." 4 This probably 1 Hesse-Darmstadt, and Zweibriicken in the Rhenish Palatinate. 2 Ralph Beaver Strassburger, Pennsylvania German Pioneers (Morristown, Penna.), I (1934), 620, 622, 625; Pennsylvania Colonial Records, IV (Harrisburg, 1851), 306-7; see Appendix I. 8 T.

To a number of these, references are given in the text. But I wish to acknowledge how much I owe to the very careful and original research provided by Professor Willis, in his "Architectural History of the Cathedral"; by Precentor Walcott, in his "Early Statutes" of Chichester; and Dean Stephen, in his "Diocesan History." The footnotes, which refer to the latter work, indicate the pages in the smaller edition. But the volume could never have been completed without the great help given to me on many occassions by Prebendary Bennett. His deep and intimate knowledge of the cathedral structure and its history was always at my disposal. It is to him, as well as to Dr. Codrington and Mr. Gordon P.G.

  • Irish Quakers in Colonial Pennsylvania: a Forgotten Segment of Society
    Irish Quakers in Colonial Pennsylvania: A Forgotten Segment of Society by Gerelyn Hollingsworth I. Introduction With the notable exception of Albert Cook Myers, American historians have chosen to ignore the Irish Quakers who settled in colonial Pennsylvania or to regard them as indistinguishable from their English coreligionists. 1 The neglect is understandable to some extent.
