MARRIOTT CANBY, youngest son of William and Martha ( Marriott) Canby, of Wilmington, or as he came to be known, "Merritt" Canby, came to Philadelphia when a youth to obtain a mercantile education, and became a prominent business man of that city. About 1830, in partnership with Joseph Lovering, he engaged in the business of sugar refining; their firm being the first to introduce, in Amer- ica, the process of boiling sugar by steam in vacuum. He was successful in his business operations, and in 1835 retired from business and returned to Wilming- ton, where he became prominently connected with a number of important cor- porate institutions, until his death, December 10, 1866.

Marriott or Merritt Canby married, May 20, 1830, Eliza Tatnall, a daughter of Hon. Thomas Sipple, of Kent county, Delaware, born 1765, died 1798, Treasurer of State of Delaware, 1787-98, by his wife Ann, daughter of Joseph and Eliza- beth (Lea) Tatnall; granddaughter of Garrett Sipple, of Kent county, by his wife, Elizabeth Berry, a descendant of Richard Preston, of "Preston on Patuxet," Maryland, and a cousin of Samuel Preston, Provincial Councillor of Pennsyl- vania; her grandfather, William Berry, being many years a member of Assembly of the "Three Lower Counties." Waitman Sipple, the great-grandfather of Eliza Tatnall Sipple, is said to have come from Virginia to Kent county, where he pur- chased land in 1729, and died in 1762. He married at Duck Creek Meeting of Friends in 1724, Mary, daughter of Nathaniel and Elinor Hunn, born October 16, 1706, died 1774. Eliza Tatnall Sipple, in a memorandum still in possession of her descendants, say of her father's family: "All I can learn of my father's family is that in the early settlement of Virginia, an ancestor by name of Jared

1078

CANBY

Sipple took up lands there. Either he or his sons or grandsons becoming dissatis- fied, removed to Maryland, then to Murderkill Hundred, Kent county, Delaware. Two brothers, Waitman and Jared or Garrett, settled near each other. Waitman Sippie was the father of Garret Sipple who was my grandfather. Garret Sipple married Elizabeth Berry of a well known and highly respected family of Kent county, and had three children, Elizabeth, Lydia and Thomas Sipple, my father. There appears to have been much landed property in the family, grazing and grain farms, &c., besides much cattle and servants. The lands of my grandfather joined the lands of the Dickinson family,-John Dickinson, at one time Governor of the State. I have endeavored to discover what could be attributed to my father's family either good or evil. I cannot learn anything to their discredit but much of virtue, truth and manliness. My maternal ancestors were the Tatnall and Lea family. My father dying when I was two and a half years of age, my inother, Ann Tatnall, returned to the home of her father, Joseph Tatnall, in Wil- mington, and I lost sight of my father's family." Her mother married (second) John Bellach.

Jonathan Sipple of this family was coroner of Kent county from 1769 to the organization of the "Three Lower Counties" into the State of Delaware, in 1776. A newspaper notice of the death of Hon. Thomas Sipple, is as follows :

"Wilmington, Dec. 8th. 1798.

"Died. On the 4th inst. at his seat near Dover, Thomas Sipple Esq., Treasurer of the State. The premature death of this excellent man has deprived this community of a most valuable citizen. His attention to the duties of his office; his punctuality in discharging the pub ic engagements; his civility and compliance to those with whom his official station con- nected him; and his attachment to the constitution of his country united all men, and all parties in the Legislature, annually in appointing him to a station which he filled with so much applause. In his private life he was not less amiable and useful. The Poor and the distressed always found in him a bountiful and generous assistance; and the humanity of his heart encircled every child of misfortune. In his still more intimate and dearer con- nection, the sincerest love of his relatives and the warmest attachment of his numerous friends gave the most unquestionable proof of the tenderness and benevolence of a Christian gentleman."

CANBY

JAMES CANBY, son of Samuel and Frances (Lea) Canby, born January 30, 1781, inherited the mills and business of his father at Wilmington, which he con- tinued to conduct successfully during his life. He was a man of substance and prominence in the city and community, and took a lively interest in local institu- tions. He was one of the projectors of the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Balti- more Railroad, and was the first president of the company. He invested largely in real estate in Baltimore and also in western lands and was one of the prominent business men of his day. He died at the old homestead in Wilmington, May 24, 1852. He married Elizabeth Roberts, of Germantown, Philadelphia, and had among other children, two sons, James Canby, Jr., and Samuel Canby.

James Canby Jr., engaged in the milling business with his father and con- tinued it after the latter's death, largely increasing the capacity of the mills as well as the quality of the product. He married S. Matilda Price, and had three daughters, the eldest of whom, Catharine R., became the wife of Rev. Edward Hale, of Philadelphia, and a son, James Benjamin Canby, born in 1848, who in his younger days was associated with the firm of James E. Price & Company, proprietors of the Brandywine Mills, but in 1873 came to Philadelphia and took a position in the counting house of Alexander G. Cattell & Company, and in 1877 succeeded to the business of the firm. He was a member of the Trades League, the Grocers' and Importers' League, the Union League of Philadelphia, the His- torical Society of Pennsylvania, the Sons of Delaware, and was twice elected president of the Commercial Exchange of Philadelphia.

SAMUEL CANBY, son of James and Elizabeth (Roberts) Canby, was born in Wilmington, Delaware, July 10, 1811, and died June 20, 1875. He married, June 25, 1832, at Philadelphia, Elizabeth Clifford Morris, born August 19, 1813, died March 10, 1892, daughter of Caspar Wistar Morris, of Philadelphia, born Sep- tember 12, 1764, died February 27, 1828, by his wife, Elizabeth Giles ; and grand- daughter of Captain Samuel Morris, commander of the First City Troop during the Revolution, by his wife, Rebecca Wistar.

Caspar Wistar Morris, the father of Elizabeth Clifford (Morris) Canby, like his ancestors for many generations was prominently identified with the affairs of Philadelphia. He was reared in the faith of the Society of Friends in which he retained his membership, though his distinguished father, Captain Morris, had been disowned for taking part in military affairs. He was, however, disowned for joining the Troop, and taking part with it in the quelling of the Whiskey Insurrection in Western Pennsylvania in 1794. He inherited a competence but lost the greater part of his fortune through endorsements for a friend, but by diligent application to business and rigid economy was able to pay the large sums for which he was pledged and again acquired a competence. For several years lie was a partner in the Brewery at 145 Market street, conducted under the firm name of Twells, Morris & Co. In 1813 he was elected a member of the State in Schuylkill, of which his father was for many years Governor, but resigned in 1816. He was one of the first in Philadelphia to burn coal for heating purposes. Caspar Wistar Morris married, November 24, 1795, Elizabeth Giles, born Sep- tember 25, 1774, died March, 1832, daughter of Jacob Giles, of Philadelphia, by his wife, Anna, daughter of Thomas and Anna Clifford. She was a member of the Society of Friends, but was disowned for marrying him. Both Caspar W. Morris and his wife were remarkably handsome in personal appearance, being

CANBY

accounted one of the handsomest couples in Philadelphia at the time of their mar- riage. They both belonged to that exclusive set of old aristocratic Quaker fam- ilies that constituted the best society of the city during Colonial days.

Samuel and Elizabeth C. (Morris) Canby resided for a number of years near Wilmington, and after the death of his father, James Canby, removed to the old home of his grandfather at Fourteenth and Market streets, Wilmington, where he spent the remainder of his days and where his daughter, Mrs. Charles G. Rumford still resides.

ELIZABETH MORRIS CANBY, b. at Wilmington, Oct. 31, 1848; m. Charles Grubb Rumford; of whom presently.

ELIZABETH MORRIS CANBY, only surviving child of Samuel and Elizabeth C. ( Morris) Canby, born October 31, 1848, was married at Wilmington, October 7, 1875, by the Right Reverend Alfred Lee, D. D., LL. D., Bishop of Delaware, to Charles Grubb Rumford, Esq., of the Wilmington Bar, born in Byberry township, Philadelphia county, Pennsylvania, son of Lewis Rumford, by his second wife, Mary Caldwell Gilpin, and a great-great-grandson of John Rumford, who came from England in 1698.

On the minutes of the Monthly Meeting of Friends, held at Middletown, Bucks county, Pennsylvania, the 4th of the 6th month ( August) 1698, it is recorded that "John Rumford lately come from Old England, produced a certificate of his good life and conversation, which was read and accepted." On September 27, 1699, lie was married at the same Meeting to Mary Scaife, born in Cheshire, England, August 10, 1678, daughter of Jonathan and Mary Scaife, of Middletown, who had located in Middletown some years previously. In the same year Jonathan Scaife conveyed to his son-in-law, John Rumford, a farm in Middletown on Core creek, where they resided until 1712, when they took a certificate to Philadelphia Monthly Meeting and located in Philadelphia county, and later became members of Haverford Monthly Meeting. In 1721 John Rumford removed with his family to Plymouth township, Philadelphia county (now Montgomery county), and took his certificate to Gwynedd Monthly Meeting, bearing date July 26, 1721. He became an active and prominent member of this meeting and was named, April 3, 1723, as one of the Friends to visit families at Oley (now Berks) county. He was named as an overseer of Plymouth Meeting by Gwynedd Meeting, and served until July 28, 1724, when he requested to be relieved. He died in Plymouth town- ship, his will bearing date December 26, 1738, being proved February 3, 1738-9. His wife, Mary Scaife, evidently died before this date as she is not mentioned in the will. They were the parents of ten children, seven daughters and three sons, seven of whom and a child of a third were mentioned in the will of the father. The sons were John, Jonathan and Thomas ; the latter, the youngest of the family, born October 22, 1719, took a certificate to Newark Monthly Meeting, New Castle county, May 29, 1739.

Jonathan Rumford, the second son, born in Middletown, Bucks county, Janu- ary 11, 1705-6, took a certificate from Gwynedd Meeting to Concord Meeting in 1738, and married there June 8, 1738, Susanna, daughter of William Nooks, of Birmingham, Chester (now Delaware) county, and two months later took a

certificate to Philadelphia Meeting. They later settled in or near New Castle county, and were associated with Wilmington Meeting. Their eldest daughter, Sarah Rumford, married there December 27, 1753, William Shipley, Jr., son of William Shipley, the founder of Wilmington, by his wife, Mary Tatnall.

Lewis, son of John and Priscilla (Jerries) Rumford, of Wilmington, was born in Wilmington, October 20, 1796, and married there in 1822, Henrietta M. Grubb, born at Grubb's Corner, New Castle county, Delaware, August 25, 1800, eldest daughter of William Ford Grubb, by his wife, Lydia Williamson. She died at Wilmington, August 6, 1826.

After the death of his wife, Lewis Rumford removed to Philadelphia and was engaged in business there for some years. In March 1841 he purchased a farm in Byberry township, Philadelphia county, on which he resided until the autumn of 1853, when he returned to Wilmington, and resided there until his death, Feb- ruary 15, 1860. He married (second) February 22, 1838, Mary Caldwell Gilpin, born September 5, 1798, died at Wilmington, Delaware, November 13, 1884. She was a daughter of William Gilpin, born at Wilmington, Delaware, August 18, 1775, died in Byberry township, Philadelphia county, December 2, 1843, by his wife, Ann Dunwoody, and granddaughter of Vincent Gilpin, for many years the proprietor of the large flour mills on the Brandywine, above Wilmington, and a large shipper of flour and other products to the West Indies, and importer of goods from those points, prior to the Revolution, and for some years after. He died, August 5, 1819, in Wilmington. Mary C. (Gilpin) Rumford was a sister to Hon. Edward W. Gilpin, Chief Justice of Delaware.

CHARLES GRUBB RUMFORD, b. Aug. 17, 1841, of whom presently.

CHARLES GRUBB RUMFORD, born in Byberry township, Philadelphia county, August 17, 1841, received his primary education at the Byberry Friends' School, but his parents removing to Wilmington, Delaware, when he was twelve years of age, he continued his studies there until 1857, when he entered the Commercial and Classical School at Lawrenceville, New Jersey, to prepare for college, and later entered the University of Pennsylvania. Owing to the sudden death of his father, however, he was not able to complete his college course, and returning to Wilmington, he began in 1861 the study of law in the office of his uncle Chief Justice Edward W. Gilpin. Early in the year 1862 he began recruiting a company of Artillery for service in the Civil War, and on August 15, 1862, had secured a sufficient quota of men, and it was mustered into the service of the United States as the First Battery, Delaware Light Artillery, and he was commissioned Second Lieutenant. The battery was first equipped as a four-gun battery, and went into camp at Camp Bradford, Brandywine Hundred, New Castle county, for drill and instruction. It was later increased to a six-gun battery, and on September 6, 1862, Second Lieutenant Rumford was commissioned Junior First Lieutenant. The bat-

1082

tery remained at Camp Bradford until early in 1863, when it was ordered to Ports- mouth, Virginia.

In August, 1863, it was ordered to New York City, to assist in quelling the "draft riots" in that city, and after order was restored was ordered to Camp Marshall, District of Columbia. In January, 1864, the Battery was ordered to New Orleans, Louisiana, and was incorporated into the Department of the Gulf, and after being equipped with horses, started, March 2, 1864, on the Red River Campaign, as part of the Nineteenth Army Corps, under the command of Gen. N. P. Banks.

This campaign was a very arduous one of forced marches and considerable fighting. The advance up the Red River for the capture of Shreveport ended with the disastrous battle of Mansfield, when the Thirteenth Army Corps was virtually wiped out of existence, and the whole force fell back to Pleasant Hill, where another battle was fought with better success, but the retreat continued to Alexandria, and the expedition was abandoned.

The Delaware Battery was engaged at the battle of Cane River Crossing, April 13, 1864; at Marksville, May 16; at Yellow Bayou, May 18 and 20, and partici- pated in many other engagements.

On May 22, the army arrived at Morganzie Bend on the Mississippi River and soon thereafter erected a fort there. During the occupancy of this point, Lieu- tenant Rumford had command of the Delaware Battery for several months and led it in October in a reconnoissance to Atchofelaya river to disperse a force of Confederate troops located there.

The Battery remained at Morganzie Bend until December II, 1864, when it was ordered to DeVall's Bluff, Arkansas, and Lieutenant Rumford remained on duty with it until January 17, 1865, when, owing to severe illness superinduced by climatic influences and the hardships of the campaign, he resigned his com- mission, and was honorably discharged by special order of the War Department.

Lieutenant Rumford returned to Wilmington, and on regaining his health re- sumed the study of law and was admitted to the New Castle county bar in 1866. He was Deputy Attorney General of Delaware, 1867-69; Clerk of the United States Circuit and District Courts, for the district of Delaware, 1869-73; was elected city solicitor of Wilmington, July 6, 1875, but declined to accept the posi- tion ; was United States Commissioner of Delaware, 1869-75. He was elected a director of the Union National Bank of Wilmington, January 11, 1888, and held that position until his resignation by reason of ill health, January 30, 1901. He was elected a manager of and Vice-President of the Farmers' Mutual Fire Insur- ance Company of Wilmington, January 9, 1893, and held that office until his death on November 24, 1901. He was one of the original stockholders of and originators of the Equitable Guarantee & Trust Company, and was elected a di- rector at its institution and held that position until his death.

Mr. Rumford became a member of the Military Order of the Loyal Legion, Philadelphia Commandery, February 5, 1890.

YARNALL FAMILY.

The ancestors of the Yarnall family of Philadelphia and Chester county were Francis Yarnall and his brother, Philip, who came from Claines or Cloynes, a small village in Worcestershire, England, near the city of Worcester, and settled in Chester county, Pennsylvania, in 1683. Both were unmarried on their arrival in Pennsylvania. They settled first in Springfield township, on one hundred acres of land about one mile from Springfield Meeting House, surveyed to Francis on October 17, 1683, and both were members of Darby Friends' Meeting. Francis married Hannah Baker in 1686, and settled in Willistown township, where he became a prominent man, a provincial magistrate and a member of Assembly in 1711. He died in 1721.

PHILIP YARNALL, younger of the brothers and ancestor of Ellis Yarnall, who three-quarters of a century later became a prominent merchant in Philadelphia, evidently made his home with his brother, Francis, until his marriage in 1694. He purchased 480 acres in Edgmont township, Chester county, in 1687, of George Maris, on which he took up his residence in 1694. In 1713 he purchased 240 acres in the same township, which he soon after conveyed to his son Philip, and later 250 acres in Ridley township, which on his death was devised to his son, Job. He was a prominent and active member of Friends' Meeting and filled the posi- tion of elder. His will, dated August 16, 1733, was proven May 20, 1734.

The Baker family were the first settlers in Edgmont township, which was named for their old home in Shropshire. John and Joseph and their three sisters, above named, were children of John Baker, of Edgmont, Shropshire, a prominent member of the Society of Friends, on whose records the date of his death is given as 2mo.

John Mendenhall came to Chester county as early as 1683 and became a prominent man there; was Coroner of the county 1726-28. His brother, Benjamin, is said to have accompanied him; another brother, Moses, and a sister, Maria, wife of Thomas Martin, came from Great Bedwin, Wilts, arriving December 16, 1685, but Moses later returned to England.
