SIR JOHN WEMYSS, of Wemyss, created Baronet, May 29, 1625 ; elevated to the Peerage of Scotland, April 1, 1628, as Baron Wemyss of Elcho, and advanced to the dignity of Earl of Wemyss, in the county of Fife, and Lord Elcho and Methel June 25, 1633. Though indebted for these high honors to Charles I., he took sides with the Parliament Party. He married in 1610, Jane, daughter of Patrick, sec- ond Lord Gray, by whom he had six children and was succeeded in 1649 by his son,

DAVID, second Earl of Wemyss, who married (first) in 1628, Jane, daughter of Robert Balfour, Lord Burleigh, by whom he had only one surviving child, Jane, first the wife of Archibald, Earl of Angus, and second of George, Earl of Suther- land. David married (second) Lady Eleanor Fleming, daughter of John Flem- ing, second Earl of Wigton, but she had no issue. He married (thirdly) Mar- garet, daughter of John, sixth Earl of Rothes, who had been widow successively of James, Lord Balgony, and of Francis, Earl of Buccleigh, by whom he had one daughter, Margaret, in whose favor he resigned his peerage to the Crown, and she, August 3, 1672, obtained a new patent, confirming the honors of the family upon her ladyship, with the original precedence. David, the old Earl, died in 1680.

MOORE

LADY MARGARET WEMYSS, as Countess of Wemyss, married Sir James Wemyss, of Caslysyerry, who was created Lord Burntisland, April 15, 1672. They had issue, besides David their successor, Anne, who married David, Earl of Levin and Melville, and Margaret, who married David, Earl of Northesk. The Countess married (second) George, first Earl of Cromarty, but had no issue by him. She died in 1705, and was succeeded by her only son,

DAVID, fourth Earl of Wemyss, who was appointed by Queen Anne, Lord High Admiral of Scotland. He married (first) in 1697, Lady Anne Douglass, daughter of William, first Duke of Queensbury, sister to James, Duke of Queensbury and Dover, and to William, Earl of March. He married a second time, but had no issue by that marriage. He died March 15, 1720, leaving issue :

James, his successor, as the fifth Earl of Wemyss, and,

WILLIAMINA, who married William Moore of "Moore Hall."

Tradition relates that the mother of Williamina, who died in childbirth, had re- quested that her child if a male should be christened William after her brother, the Earl of March, and it being a girl was christened Williamina out of respect for her wish, hence the peculiar spelling of the name.

William Moore, on his marriage settled on his father's tract of two hundred acres of land on Pickering creek, west of the Schuylkill, in Charlestown township, Chester county, Pennsylvania, and erected "Moore Hall" on an elevation, over- looking the Schuylkill and miles of surrounding country, about twenty-five miles from Philadelphia, and lived there the remainder of his life. He was a member of Provincial Assembly 1733-40, and in 1741 was commissioned a Justice and pre- sided as President Judge of the Common Pleas, Quarter Sessions and Orphans' Court of Chester county, from April 4, 1741, until the Revolution. He was also Colonel of a Chester county Regiment, during the Colonial wars in 1747 and 1755. He lived at Moore Hall in considerable style, maintaining a retinue of slaves and servants, and entertaining lavishly in Colonial times. In 1758 he was arrested for publishing an address severely criticising the Provincial Assembly, and with his son-in-law, Dr. William Smith, Provost of the College of Philadelphia, was brought before the Assembly, where both refused to make any defense, he merely admitting the authorship of the paper. Dr. Smith carried his appeal to the Privy Council in England and was sustained by that body on February 13, 1760. An aristocratic gentleman of the old school, he had no faith in the "rabble," as he termed a large mass of the enthusiastic patriots of 1775-6, and remained to the last a staunch Tory. While the Continental Army were at Valley Forge, Col. Clement Biddle was quartered at "Moore Hall," and the Committee of Corre- spondence held a session there in 1778.

William Moore died at "Moore Hall," May 30, 1783, aged eighty-four years. His will devised his whole estate to his wife, of whom he says, she was "never frighted by the rude rabble or dismayed by the insolent threats of the ruling powers ;- happy woman, a pattern of her sex and worthy of the relationship she bears to the Right Honorable and Noble family from which she sprang." She did not long survive him, dying December 6, 1784, in her eightieth year. Judge Moore was an enthusiastic churchman, and was a vestryman of St. James Prot- estant Episcopal Church of Perkiomen, and of St. David's, Radnor, where he and his wife are buried and where a tablet erected to their memory bears the following inscription :

MOORE

TO THE MEMORY OF WILLIAM MOORE, ESQUIRE, Of Moore Hall, in the County of Chester and WILLIAMINA, His wife. He departed this life, on the 30th day of May 1783 Aged 84 years.

She died on the 6th day of December 1784, in the 80th year of her age.

This venerable pair lived together in perfect love, and unremitted Harmony and Confidence, for the long period of 63 years: dispensing the best of Life, with an ardent and uninterrupted zeal, revered by their Children, Beloved by their Friends, respected by the Community, in which they passed their lenthened days,- Benevolence & urbanity beamed on all who entered their Hospitable Mansion : they administered comfort to the Poor, & to the Afflicted, encouraging, a modest merit and protecting humble honesty, though covered with rags.

He presided in the Common Pleas, Quarter Sessions & Orphans' Courts in this County for a great length of time, As a Judge, & as a Magistrate he was indefatigable in Exececuting the solemn charge of these important stations acquitting himself with intelligence, impartiality & dignity. He was a tender father,-a true Friend,-an indulgent Master.

She was one of "the brightest patterns of excellent nature" Possessing a highly cultured understanding, she was mild, considerate, kind & good. She was eminently distinguished by her amiable disposition & unassuming manners; with calmness, but with resolution, she bore the heaviest afflictions,-the severest trials of the uncertain World: and evinced her firm reliance upon a state of happiness, far beyond the grave. "That state celestial where no storm assails, No ills approach,-where bliss alone prevails."

SMITH FAMILY.

REV. WILLIAM SMITH, D. D., first Provost of the College of Philadelphia, later the University of Pennsylvania, was born at Aberdeen, Scotland, September 7, 1727, and came of a noble English family. His ancestry as entered of record at the University of Aberdeen, his alma mater, was as follows:

JOHN SMYTH ( later spelled Smith), a descendant of Roger de Clarendon, son of Edward the Black Prince, born in the year 1500, was sheriff of counties of Essex and Hertsford, 1539. He married Agnes Charnolts, of an ancient Lan- caster family, and was succeeded by his son,

SIR WILLIAM SMITH, who died in 1651, leaving an only son,

WILLIAM SMITH, born 1620, who was the father of,

THOMAS SMITH, born at Aberdeen, in 1692, married Elizabeth Duncan in 1724. She was a daughter of Alexander Duncan, Esq., of Lundie county, belonging to a Dundee family of remote antiquity, who married a daughter of Sir Peter Mur- ray, Bart. of Auchtentyre, and had beside Elizabeth, a son Adam Duncan, born 1725, who adopted the naval profession and became celebrated as "the hero of Camperdown." He entered the naval service in 1746, under Robert Haldane, and became Rear Admiral of the Blue in 1789, passing through all the intermediate grades. On October 11, 1797, he achieved a splendid victory over the Dutch fleet, under Admiral de Winter, off Camperdown, and was elevated to the peerage October 30, 1797, as Baron Duncan of Lundie, and Viscount Duncan of Camper- down. He married Henrietta, second daughter of Right Honorable Robert Dun- das, of Arniston, Lord President of the Court of Session, and niece of Henry Dundas, Lord Dunira. first Viscount Melville.

He came to Philadelphia later, and resided for a time at the corner of Front and Arch Streets.

Thomas and Elizabeth ( Duncan) Smith had issue:

WILLIAM SMITH, D. D., b. Sept. 7, 1727, hapt. at Aberdeen Kirk, Oct. 19, 1727; of whom presently;

Isabella, b. 1728, d. unm. at Falls of Schuylkill, Phila., Pa., 1802.

Thomas Smith married ( second ) Margaret Campbell, and had issue :

Charles, who came to America, but later returned to London, and d. there;

Thomas, came to Pa. and became Judge of the Supreme Court, Jan. 31, 1794, d. 1811 ; James, sailed for America, but was lost at sea.

DR. WILLIAM SMITH entered the University of Aberdeen in 1741, and received his degree there. after the prescribed term of six years, in 1747. The next three years were spent in teaching, preparation for the ministry and careful study of the best methods of teaching useful knowledge. The year 1750 was spent in Lon- don, where his first articles on educational topics were published. March 3. 1751. he embarked for New York, and landed there on May I. He became acquainted with the family of Thomas Martin, of Long Island, and was selected by Martin as tutor for his children and remained there until August, 1753.

During the last year of his tutorship, he published a pamphlet entitled "A Gen-

1157

SMITH

eral Idea of the College of Mirania," written for the purpose of demonstrating his views of the requirements of an institution of learning in a new country. It attracted considerable attention, and came to the notice of Dr. Benjamin Franklin and a number of other Philadelphians, who were then about establishing the "Charitable School and College of Philadelphia," which ultimately became the University of Pennsylvania ; and, May 25, 1853, he was tendered the position of teacher of natural philosophy, logic, etc., in the new institution. The offer was a flattering one to the enthusiastic young teacher but before accepting, he decided to return to England and take holy orders. He therefore sailed for England on October 13, 1753, and arriving in London December 1, was ordained as Deacon on December 21 by the Bishop of London, and as Priest by the Bishop of Carlisle, two days later. On December 26 he started for a farewell visit to the home of his father in Aberdeen, and, December 31, preached his first sermon in the old Kirk in which he was baptized. After a few months spent in his native place, he again embarked for America and arriving in Philadelphia, May 22, 1754, was two days later inducted into the office of Provost of the College and Academy of Philadelphia, and Professor of Natural Philosophy in that institution, and took up his duties on May 25.

Dr. Smith, at once threw his whole energy into the task of building up a model institution of learning in the city of his adoption. He was foremost in collecting money for the college at home and abroad and in securing for it in the following year a liberal charter. To his earnest and untiring efforts in its behalf and the enthusiasm which these inspired in other friends of learning, the College was largely indebted for its rapid rise to a place of prominence among the institutions of this country. He became at once thoroughly American and took a deep inter- est in the policies and institutions of his adopted country. He edited a magazine, the best which up to that time had appeared in America, superintended the publi- cation of several books of poems and "The History of Bouquet's Expedition against the Indians," and several other publications. Becoming secretary of the American Philosophical Society, he took a lively interest in the general promul- gation of useful knowledge. No one exercised a more beneficial influence in the development of a taste for literary pursuits in the city of Philadelphia. His plan for the education of the Germans in Pennsylvania proved futile, because of the racial characteristics of this peculiar element in the settlement and civilization of the new world. In politics he was an adherent of the Proprietary party, and wrote extensively in defense of Penn's Charter in 1764, when Franklin and others wished to surrender it to the Crown. During the French and Indian Wars, he preached at least six military sermons.

In 1758 he returned to England, principally to prosecute his appeal to the Privy Council, from the judgment of the Pennsylvania Assembly, on his political con- duct and that of his father-in-law, William Moore, of "Moore Hall," and was successful in his suit. While abroad he visited his alma mater, the University of Aberdeen, and received from it the degree of D. D .: the University of Oxford also conferring upon him the same honor. In 1762 he again visited his native land. this time in behalf of his College, and in conjunction with Sir James Jay. collected £11, 873 for its benefit. On this trip the University of Dublin conferred upon him the degree of D. D.

In 1770, he went to South Carolina to collect money for the College. He was

1158

SMITH

from the outset in entire accord with the opposition to the oppressive measures of Great Britain, that preceded the Revolutionary struggle, and gave the cause of the Colonies the support of his voice and pen. A number of the Trustees, patrons and faculty of the College, were, however, pronounced Tories, and the war brought serious disaster to the institution ; much of its property being confiscated and its usefulness for a time was entirely suspended. During this interval, Dr. Smith removed (in 1780) to Chestertown, Maryland, and took charge of the parish and school of Kent county ; the latter two years later growing into Washington College under his fostership. He was made Bishop of Maryland in 1783, and did much to build up the Protestant Episcopal Church in that state, as well as in the State of Pennsylvania.

In 1789 he returned to Philadelphia and succeeded in having the charter of the college restored as well as the estate belonging to it that had been confiscatd. He died in Philadelphia, May 14, 1803, leaving behind him a record of half a century of loyal work in behalf of education in all that that word implies, which, in view of the difficulties encountered and surmounted, has seldom if ever been surpassed.

Dr. Smith married July 3, 1758, Rebecca, daughter of William Moore, Esq., of "Moore Hall," Chester county, Pennsylvania, by his wife, Williamina, daughter of David, fourth Earl of Wemyss, an account of whom and their ancestry is given above. Mrs. Smith was a lady of rare accomplishments and a fitting helpmeet to the distinguished scholar and divine. She died at Philadelphia, September 20. 1793.
