ONATHAN H.

When he was only eight months

OF CHESTER COUNTY.
old the family removed to Chester county and settled on the farm near Pottstown, where he now resides, and which has ever since been his home. Here he acquired a good practical education in the excellent public schools, and then settled down to farm life, unattracted by the temptations which were even then luring many young men from the farm to engage in other pur- suits in our larger towns and cities. The homestead, which has been owned by Mr. Kulp since 1874, contains one hundred acres of as good land as can be found in this sec- tion, and is all improved. It is very pro- ductive, and in its management Mr. Kulp has been successful and prosperous. Polit- ically he is a stanch republican, and has served two terms as school director of his township. In religions faith he is a Men- nonite and actively supports the various in- terests of that chureh, to which his people have belonged for many generations.
On the 31st of October, 1859, Mr. Kulp was wedded to Harriet Amole, a daughter of Jonas and Rachel Amole, of North Cov- entry township, this county. To their union was born a family of six children, three sons and three daughters: Jonas, who married Ida Reigner, and now resides at Royer's Ford, Montgomery county; Henry, still living at home; Emma, now the wife of John L. Kulp, a farmer of Royer's Ford : Katie, Sallie, and Ernest, the three latter also living at home with their parents.
The Kulps are descended from an old Holland family, and trace their American ancestry back to three brothers, Peter, Martin and Henry Kulp, Mennonite preach- ers, who emigrated from Holland in 1707, and settled in and near Germantown, Penn- sylvania. The paternal great-grandfather of the subject of this sketch was Dielman
Kulp, a grandson of one of those brothers, and a native of Worcester township, Mont- gomery county, where he lived and died. He married Wilmina Rellenhouse, by whom he had a family of eight children : Esther. Magdalena, Wilmina, Henry, Daniel, Ma- thias, Martin and Isaac. Daniel Kulp (grandfather ) was born in Worcester town- ship, Montgomery county, where he lived most of his life, but removed to Norton township some time previous to his death. He was a farmer by occupation, and in relig- ious faith and church membership a Mennon- ite. Politically he was a whig and federalist, and married Elizabeth Funk, by whom he had a family of seven children, four sons and three daughters: Jacob, Daniel, David, Samuel, Magdalena, Wilmina and Anna, all of whom are now deceased. Samuel Kulp ( father ) was born in 1798, on the old homestead iņ Worcester township, Montgomery county. where he grew up and was educated in the common schools. He also inclined toward agricultural pursuits, and after leaving school became a farmer in Montgomery county, where he continued to live until 1853, when he removed to Chester county and settled in North Coventry township. At his home there he died in 1872, after an active life comprising nearly three quarters of a century. In political sentiment he was first a whig and later a republican, and mar- ried Catharine Hunsberger, a daughter of Samuel Hunsberger, of Montgomery county. They had a family of nine children, four sons and five daughters: Catharine, de- ceased ; Aun, married Samuel Stauffer, now a retired farmer residing nt Pottstown: Daniel H., a sketch of whom appears else- where in this volume; Sarah, now the wife of Samuel High, a retired farmer of North Coventry township ; Samuel. deceased ; Da-

Stauffer, a prosperous farmer of East Coventry township; and Mary A., the wife of Abraham L. Delwiler, a miller by vocation who now resides in East Coventry township.
THOMAS K. STERRETT, deceased,
was one of the active, talented, and prosperous men of the last generation, who, inheriting great business ability, possessed also the rarer gift of utilizing each power of mind and making every faculty con- tribute to his usefulness and success in life. He was a son of John and Margaret (Hagar) Sterrett, and was born May 6, 1830, in Warwick township, Chester county, Pennsylvania. His early education was obtained in the common schools, but he subsequently took a full academic course, and acquired a fine classical education, to- gether with a practical business training. Leaving school, he accepted a responsible position with the firm of A. M. Campbell & Co., of the city of Philadelphia, in whose business his father, Jolın Sterrett, was owner, where he became book-keeper and general manager. This position gave him ample scope for the exercise of those acenrate methods in looking after details and that fine executive ability which became his distinguishing characteristics. To his watch- ful care and able management was largely due the great success of this prosperous firm, and with it he remained for a period of between twenty and twenty-five years. In May, 1879, he practically retired from active business, and returning to his native
county, settled at Warwick Furnace, where he was afterward appointed postmaster, and served in that capacity for a number of years. It was a matter of comment that the postal affairs of the town were never more accurately managed nor more satisfactorily conducted than during his administration of the office. Mr. Sterrett was also a large stockholder in the Pottstown National Iron bank, and was serving as director of that financial institution at the time of his death. He died at his home in Warwick April 21, 1890, in the sixtieth year of his age. In political faith he was a democrat, and his sympathies were always with the great mass of the people. He was broad and liberal in his views, but devotedly attached to the idea of popular government-a gov- ernment which should secure equal rights for all and allow special privileges to none.
On July 2, 1867, Mr. Sterrett was united in marriage with Mary R. Baker, a daughter of Bassett and Catherine Baker, of the city of Philadelphia. This union was blessed by the birth of one child, a daughter, named Mary Maud, who was born September 30, 1868, in Philadelphia. On September 27, 1892, Mary Maud Sterrett was united in marriage with H. Clarence McMichael, son of Belinda and William McMichael, of Upper Uwchlan, Chester county, Pennsylvania. and they now live with her mother in their handsome home at Warwick. Mrs. Mary A. Sterrett was born July 17, 1836, in Philadelphia, is a woman of intelligence and refinement, and possesses remarkable business capacity. She is sole manager of a fine farm containing five hundred acres of valuable land, beside which she owns part of another excellent farm, and controls an interest in the business of a prosperous firm in Philadelphia.

OF CHESTER COUNTY.
John Sterrett, father of the subject of this sketch, was born in Warwick township, this county, August 31, 1796, where he grew to manhood. His occupation was that of miller, and he erected and for many years operated the mill now owned by Frank James. He sold out, came to the city, and when Thomas K. Sterrett married, lived with his son, also coming back with him to Warwick, at which place he died March 26, 1888. He was placed in St. Mary's cemetery. He was a man of great energy and good business ability, and became very prosperous in later life. He married Mar- garet Hagar, and was the father of six children, all now deceased, of whom Thomas K., the subject of this sketch, was the youngest. The others were Margaret, James, Catharine, William, and John R. Politically John K. Sterrett was a staneh democrat, kept well posted on the questions of his day, and was always active in support of democratic principles. In religious faitlı and church membership he was an Episco- palian, and his death occurred at his home in Warwick township, March 26, 1880, at the advanced age of eighty-four years. His funeral took place on Easter Sunday, March 28, at which time his remains were followed to their last resting place in St. Mary's cemetry by a large concourse of relatives, friends, and neighbors, among whom his entire life had been spent, and in whose hearts his memory was deeply cherished.
F RANK D. EMACK, M. D., a son of Elbert G. and Margaret (Turner) Emack, was born April 22, 1850 in Prince George county, Maryland. He was reared on the farm. He entered Columbia college at Washington, District of Columbia, and
took a thorough course of training in that institution, after which he read medicine in his native county, and was graduated from the medical department of the University of Maryland, at Baltimore, in 1875. Int- mediately after receiving his degree he was appointed one of the resident physicians of the Bayview asylum in Baltimore, which position he held for several months, and then resigned to locate in Schuylkill county, Pennsylvania, for the practice of his profession. He was engaged in con- tinnous practice in that county until 1881. when he removed to PLænixville, Chester county. Here he soon acquired a large general practice, which he has successfully conducted ever since. He is a prominent member of the Chester County Medical society and the American Medical associa- tion. Doctor Emack has been a close student of medicine and its allied sciences. has made many original investigations and acenrate observations, and his standing as a physician is deservedly high.
