Elizabeth died in childhood. Violetta R. re- sides at home. Mary married George Gunkle, of Chester county, who is now deceased. They had one child, Robinson K.


Mrs. Violetta M. Kennedy, widow of David Robinson Kennedy, died October 23, 1903, at her residence at Port Kennedy in her eighty-seventh year. She had been an invalid for some time. She suffered a stroke of paralysis from which she failed to rally, being only partly conscious from that time until her death.


A sister of Mrs. Kennedy married Squire James Sloan.


Mrs. Kennedy was possessed of rare business ability, being endowed also with many of the vir- tues which adorn woman. At her husband's death she continued the business of burning lime and furnishing fluxing stone for several years, giving employment to many persons, and only re- tiring when advanced age required her to relin- quish it. She was charitable to the poor, and the later years of her life, when she was more at leisure, were spent largely in work of this kind. She was a valued member of the community in which she lived.


EDWARD BIDDLE LATCH, the son of Gardiner and Henrietta (Wakeling) Latch, the grandson of Jacob and Jane (Jeanette Rose) Latch, the great-grandson of Rudolph and Mary (Bealert-Baler) Latch (Lutz-Lasch), the great- great-grandson of Jacob and Dorothy Bealert (Baler), was born November 15, 1833, at Mer- ion, Montgomery county, Pennsylvania.


Jacob Bealert (Baler) (great-great-grandfa- ther) at and prior to 1755 was owner of a tract of land lying to the northward of City Line, and between the Old Lancaster Road and what is now called Lancaster Avenue or Turnpike. Ru- dolph Latch (Lutz-Lasch) (great-grandfather), of German extraction, was married March 5, 1755. to Mary, the daughter of Jacob and Doro- thea Bealert (now written Bealer) ; she died


September 1, 1813. The children by this mar- riage were: Nancy, Mary, Jacob, John, David, Elizabeth, Susanna, Joseph, Samuel, Hannah, and George. The latter named was born March 16, 1776, and thus through this branch an Ameri- can ancestry of about one hundred and fifty years is attained. Mrs. Latch inherited about one hundred acres of her father's estate.


Jacob Latch (grandfather) was born October 31. 1758, and died June 29, 1845. He was a son of Rudolph and Mary ( Bealer) Latch. He mar- ried Jane (Jeanette), the daughter of Peter and (Gardiner-Gardner) Rose, December 24, 1782. The children by this marriage were: Sarah. Mary, Jane. Gardiner (Gardner). Francis H., Jacob, Peter R., and Hannah H. The latter was born January 30. 1803, and was married to Jacob Stadelman, Sr. The average age of the parents and chil- dren thus specified was eighty-four years, their ages, not counting the odd months and days, being. respectively, 87, 93, 92, 90, 90, 43, 90, 90, 78, and 83. At some time during the American revolution, Jacob Latch enlisted in the Con- tinental army, serving for a time under Captain Young and Colonel Parschall ( Paschall?). He volunteered to cut the rope at the west end of the Middle Ferry over the Schuylkill, at what is now called Market street, accomplishing the feat under fire from the British soldiers who were then occupying Philadelphia. At this time, also, the party of which Jacob Latch was a member were listening for and soon heard the roar of the guns that told of the battle of Germantown. Later Jacob Latch was called "Washington's Runner," but what special duty was involved has not been fully determined, Jane, his wife. also being very reticent concerning Revolutionary his- tory, some of which she would not tell even as late as 1852. Subsequent to the war of the Revo- lution. Mr. Latch was elected and commissioned captain in the Fifth Company of the Thirty- sixtlı Regiment of the Pennsylvania Militia, un- der date of 1807, but his old friends used to ad- dress him as Major Latch.


Jane Latch, as already stated, was the daugh- ter of Peter Rose. In the Revolutionary days,

and prior thereto, Peter Rose owned a tract of land extending from low water mark on the Schuylkill for a distance of about a mile up Market street, the private burial ground of the Rose family, although unused, still remaining at Fortieth and Ludlow streets. Peter Rose mar- ried Miss Gardiner (Gardner), the daughter of a neighbor whose farm adjoined his own. The ancestors of Jane Latch came over in the ship with William Penn at his second coming in 1699, whereby, through this branch, a claim for an American ancestry goes back for two hundred and five years.


Gardiner Latch (father) was born January 22, 1792. During the war of 1812, although not a participant therein, he was under orders to hold himself at a minute's notice for active service. Later he was duly elected, commis- sioned, and served as colonel of the Pennsylvania militia. Immediately prior to his marriage his parents, in order to keep their eldest boy near them, deeded to him six acres of ground from the old farm whereon to build himself a house. This plan was so successfully carried out that he brought his bride directly to the present homestead, and here all his children were born. He married Henrietta, the daughter of Samuel and Elizabeth (de Monseau) Wakeling, on April 4, 1822. The children by this marriage were: I. Elizabeth D., born January 24, 1823, died April 21, 1896; she became the wife of Thomas J. Knapp, and their children were: Edmund W., Henrietta W., and De Monseau, who died at the age of five years. 2. Jeannette Rose, born June 21, 1824, remained single, and died March IO, 1902, at the age of seventy-seven years. 3. Sam- uel W., born October 29, 1825, died September 24, 1832. 4. Isabella A., born December 3, 1826, died in July. 1871 ; she was the wife of William Ashworth, and their children were: James, Isa- bella Caroline, and William D. 5. Jacob, born March 5. 1828, married Emeline Cooper, and their children were: William, who died at the age of seven years ; Edward, who died at the age of fourteen years, and Gardiner C. 6. Mary Ann, born August 4. 1829, died July 17, 1891. 7. Gardiner Latch, Jr., died in infancy. 8. Joseph


(afterward known as Gardiner J.), born May 9, 1832, was married to Ellen Fitzgerald, no issue, and died October 14, 1899. 9. Edward Biddle, mentioned hereinafter. 10. Caroline Biddle, born January 8, 1835, became the wife of Anthony K. Royce, and their children were: Lucy A., who died at the age of eigtheen years; and Edward L. Royce. Jacob Latch, second son of Gardiner and Henriette Latch, made a splendid soldierly record during the Civil war. He enlisted in 1862 in Company I, One Hundred and Twenty-first Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteers, Colonel Chapman Biddle commanding, and served until the close of the war, participating in the most important campaigns and sanguinary engage- ments of the great struggle. His service was in Virginia under Generals McClellan, Burnside, Hooker, Meade, Warren, Grant, Sheridan, Rey- nolds, and others of the great captains who com- manded the Army of the Potomac, or such of its corps as his regiment was identified with. He fought in the battle of Fredericksburg, December 13, 1862, and in the following year took part in the notable "mud march" under Burnside, Janu- ary 20-25, and in the battle of Chancellorsville, May 3-5, 1863. He was also engaged with his regiment in the famous battle of Gettysburg July 1-3. Serving with the rank of first ser- geant, the dreadful mortality among the com- missioned officers of his company left him as the ranking officer after the last named battle, and he held the command with honor to himself and to the admiring satisfaction of the regimental commander. Sergeant Leach was a participant in all of the famous battles and minor engage- ments which took place under General Grant- the Wilderness, May 5-7, Spottsylvania, May 8 and 20, the North Anna, May 23-27, the To- potomy, May 20-31, Bethesda Church, June 1-5, Cold Harbor, June 5-12, Petersburg, June 17 to August 15, the Weldon railroad, Angust 16, Pop- lar Grove Church and Preble Farm, October I, and the Applejack raid, December 6-12, all in 1864. He was also present in all the operations of the closing days in 1865, and took part in the engagements at Dabney's Mill and Hatcher's Run, February 6-12, the Boydton Plankroad and

Samuel Wakeling, the father of Henrietta (Wakeling) Latch, was born in England, No- vember 9, 1768. He learned the bookbinding business with Edmund de Monseau, in Pater Noster Row, London, England, and with such further success that he carried off in marriage his employer's daughter, the above mentioned Elizabeth de Monseau. The fruits of this mar- riage were nine children, namely: Samuel, who died quite young and was buried in St. Paul's England; Mary Ann; William, who died in in- fancy and was buried in Christ Church burying ground in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Isabella, Elizabeth, William Henry, buried at Old Oxford, Philadelphia ; Henrietta, Samuel, and Edmund D. Wakeling. On July 14, 1793, Samuel Wake- ling left England and arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, August 26, 1793, with a view of settling in the United States. He returned to England for his family, set sail from thence on July 14, 1794, and arrived in Philadelphia on October 1, 1794. He located in Frankford, Phil- adelphia, and established a prosperous business. Consequently, through this branch, an American ancestry of one hundred and ten years is attained.


Edmund de Monseau, the father of Elizabeth (de Monseau) Wakeling, married Elizabeth Loaste, they being refugees from France owing to some religious or political disturbance. As already intimated, the de Monseans established themselves in the bookbinding business in Pater Noster Row, and the Loaste family took up the manufacture of silk goods, a sample of which is available at the present time.
