Together, they are a representative sampling of the range of manuscript collections at HSP, but scholars are urged to pursue fruitful lines of inquiry to locate and use the scores of additional materials in each area that is surveyed here. There are numerous helpful unprinted guides at HSP that index or describe large collections. Some of these are listed below, especially when they point in numerous directions for research. In addition, the HSP has a printed Guide to the Manuscript Collections of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania (HSP: Philadelphia, 1991), which includes an index of proper names; it is not especially helpful for searching specific topics, item names, of subject areas. In addition, entries in the Guide are frequently too brief to explain the richness of many collections. Finally, although the on-line guide to the manuscript collections is generally a reproduction of the Guide, it is at present being updated, corrected, and expanded. This survey does not contain a separate section on land acquisition, surveying, usage, conveyance, or disputes, but there is much information about these subjects in the individual collections reviewed below.

  • The Robert Biddle and Anna Miller Biddle House Development
    The Robert Biddle and Anna Miller Biddle House A history of 309 Bank Avenue, Riverton, New Jersey Prepared by Roger T. Prichard for the Historical Society of Riverton, rev. November 29, 2018 The ten founders of Riverton commissioned architect Samuel Sloan to create villas for them on the riverbank of the new town. Philadelphian Robert Biddle was the first owner of the villa which became 309 Bank Avenue, part of the original Lippincott farm. All ten were built during the spring and summer of 1851. Robert Biddle continued to live there during the warm months until about 1896 when he appears to have moved there year-round. He died there in 1902 at the age of 88. He far outlived all of 309 Bank Avenue, July 17, 2018 the rest of the founders. photo by Roger Prichard Development On February 8, 1851, Daniel Leeds Miller, Jr. purchased about 120 acres of farmland from Joseph and Beulah Lippincott for $20,000. On today’s street plan this parcel would be bounded by the riverbank, the railroad, Howard Street and Church Lane. Miller was acting on behalf of a group of ten investors, including himself. Their intentions for the new town of Riverton were described in the Philadelphia Public Ledger of April 9, 1851. It named many but not all of the ten founders. Robert Biddle was not mentioned but his brother William was, along with an Edward C. Biddle. There was an Edward Canby Biddle who was a first cousin of the brothers Robert and William, so it is possible that he was an early partner in the creation of Riverton but Robert replaced him shortly thereafter.

Keithian politics no longer had any significance; the old coalition which had gathered around the fiery and independent Governor ceased to exist almost with his departure for England in 1728. Only five of his supporters were returned to the legislature in 1729, and by the following year but three remained.2 The issues which created the controversies during the 1720's were already passe. The old leadership either died off, or gave up its positions of power, and in turn was supplanted during the next decade by a group of talented and younger men—Benjamin Franklin, Isaac Norris II, Israel Pemberton, Jr., William Allen, and James Hamilton.3 While party organization may have been more advanced in Penn- sylvania than in any other colony, it still depended upon personal relationships with control in the hands of a few wealthy families.

  • The Democratic Party and the Transformation of American Conservatism, 1847-1860
    PRESERVING THE WHITE MAN’S REPUBLIC: THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF AMERICAN CONSERVATISM, 1847-1860 Joshua A. Lynn A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Harry L. Watson William L. Barney Laura F. Edwards Joseph T. Glatthaar Michael Lienesch © 2015 Joshua A. Lynn ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Joshua A. Lynn: Preserving the White Man’s Republic: The Democratic Party and the Transformation of American Conservatism, 1847-1860 (Under the direction of Harry L. Watson) In the late 1840s and 1850s, the American Democratic party redefined itself as “conservative.” Yet Democrats’ preexisting dedication to majoritarian democracy, liberal individualism, and white supremacy had not changed. Democrats believed that “fanatical” reformers, who opposed slavery and advanced the rights of African Americans and women, imperiled the white man’s republic they had crafted in the early 1800s. There were no more abstract notions of freedom to boundlessly unfold; there was only the existing liberty of white men to conserve. Democrats therefore recast democracy, previously a progressive means to expand rights, as a way for local majorities to police racial and gender boundaries. In the process, they reinvigorated American conservatism by placing it on a foundation of majoritarian democracy. Empowering white men to democratically govern all other Americans, Democrats contended, would preserve their prerogatives. With the policy of “popular sovereignty,” for instance, Democrats left slavery’s expansion to territorial settlers’ democratic decision-making.

  • Martin's Bench and Bar of Philadelphia
    MARTIN'S BENCH AND BAR OF PHILADELPHIA Together with other Lists of persons appointed to Administer the Laws in the City and County of Philadelphia, and the Province and Commonwealth of Pennsylvania BY , JOHN HILL MARTIN OF THE PHILADELPHIA BAR OF C PHILADELPHIA KKKS WELSH & CO., PUBLISHERS No. 19 South Ninth Street 1883 Entered according to the Act of Congress, On the 12th day of March, in the year 1883, BY JOHN HILL MARTIN, In the Office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington, D. C. W. H. PILE, PRINTER, No. 422 Walnut Street, Philadelphia. Stack Annex 5 PREFACE. IT has been no part of my intention in compiling these lists entitled "The Bench and Bar of Philadelphia," to give a history of the organization of the Courts, but merely names of Judges, with dates of their commissions; Lawyers and dates of their ad- mission, and lists of other persons connected with the administra- tion of the Laws in this City and County, and in the Province and Commonwealth. Some necessary information and notes have been added to a few of the lists. And in addition it may not be out of place here to state that Courts of Justice, in what is now the Com- monwealth of Pennsylvania, were first established by the Swedes, in 1642, at New Gottenburg, nowTinicum, by Governor John Printz, who was instructed to decide all controversies according to the laws, customs and usages of Sweden. What Courts he established and what the modes of procedure therein, can only be conjectur- ed by what subsequently occurred, and by the record of Upland Court.

THE LEGAL PROFESSION IN COLONIAL AMERICA* Anton-Hermann Chroustt VI. NEw YORK New York accepted the common law of England as the basis of its own law at a relatively early stage. This favorable attitude towards English law is to a large extent probably due to the fact that the colony was acquired by conquest rather than settlement. Soon after the English had taken over New Amsterdam from the Dutch in 1664 and had renamed it New York, a code of laws was promulgated under the title of the Duke's Laws. In 1673 the Dutch retook New York and re-introduced the old Dutch laws, but lost it again in 1674 to the British who restored the code of 1665. This code, which is mainly the work of Matthias Nicolls, a barrister from Lincoln's Inn (1649), drew alike from the com- mon law, the Dutch colonial laws and from some of the local laws in force in the New England colonies.
