ANCESTRY OF BENJAMIN HOUGH, OF WARRINGTON.

Joseph Hough, youngest son of Richard and Margery (Clowes) Hough, a sketch of whose life and distinguished services is given in the preceding pages, was born in Lower Makefield, Bucks county, Pennsyl- vania, September 19, 1693, and died in Warwick township, now Doylestown, May 10, 1773. By the will of his father he inherit- ed the Warwick plantation, originally taken up by his grandfather, John Clows, and pur- chased by his father in 1702. It comprised 841 acres as shown by a survey when di- vided between his two sons Joseph and John · by deeds dated May 2, 1761, and lay on both sides of the Neshaminy, on the lower line of the present township of Doyles- town, extending from the Bristol road to Houghville, or "The Turk." It was divided almost equally between the two sons in 1761, the Neshaminy being the dividing line for about one-third of the distance. John getting the end next Honghville, and Joseph the western end. Joseph Hough, Sr., married "out of meeting." his wife being Elizabeth West. daughter of Nathan- iel and Elizabeth (Dungan) West, and granddaughter of the Rev. Thomas Dun- gan, who came from Rhode Island to Bucks county in 1683, and of Nathaniel West, of Rhode Island. Nathaniel West, Jr., was living at the time of the marriage of his daughter, on the Rodman tract, adjoining the Hough farm, which would imply that Joseph Hough had taken up his residence in Warwick prior to his marriage. A Jo- seph Hough was dealt with at Falls Meet- ing for marrying out of unity May 9. 1726, but whether Joseph of Warwick, or Joseph Hough, son of John and Hannah, who was about the same age, cannot be ascertained from the records. He evidently retained

a nominal membership, as his son Joseph was considered a member at Buckingham at the time of his marriage in 1756. The children of Joseph and Elizabeth (West) Hough, were as follows :

I. Sarah, married James Radcliffe, son of Edward and Phebe (Baker) Radcliffe, and grandson of James Radcliffe, the preacher, and of Henry Baker, whose dis- tinguished services have been previously referred to.

2. Martha, born 1728, died 1785. married William Evans, son of Lewis Evans, a trooper in the battle of Boyne. For their children, see "Fox, Ellicott & Evans Fami- lies," Chas. W. Evans, Buffalo, N. Y., 1882. Four married Ellicots.

3. Mary, married Samuel Gourley, of Wrightstown, Bucks county.

4. Rebecca, married (first) a George, and (second) Samuel Williams, of Gwynedd.

5. Joseph, born 1730, died January 6, 1818.

6. John Hough, second son of Jeseph and Elizabeth (West) Hough, lived on the 414 acre tract conveyed to him by his father in 1761, as before recited, in Warwick township. Was probably not a member of the Society of Friends, though he adhered to their principles. His name appears on the roll of "Non-Associators" in 1775. He married, October 31, 1767, at St. Michael's and Zion Church, Philadelphia, Ruth Will- iams, and had issue five children, viz: Jo- seph, who married Eleanor Miller, who after his death married John Meredith ; Thomas married (first) Ann Mathews, and (second), Lydia (Mathews) Drake, her sister : John, married Rebecca Thomp- son ; Mary, married Robert Walker of War- rington; and Charlotte, died Jannary 14, 1815, married John Meredith, who after her death married her brother's widow, Eleanor (Miller) Hough. John Thompson Hough, the wealthy inventor and manufact- urer of safes, Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, is a descendant of John and Rebecca (Thomp- son) Hough.

7. Margery Hough, married Hugh Shaw. 8. Elizabeth Hough, married Robert Tompkins.

9. Hannah Hough, died April 18, 1819, married Simon Meredith, an uncle to John, who married Charlotte, daughter of John Hough. A grandson of Simon and Han- nah married Rebecca, daughter of Joseplı Hough; see below.

5. Joseph Hough, Jr., eldest son of Jo- seph and Elizabeth (West) Hough, born 1730, lived on the 420 acres conveyed to him by his father in Warwick. He was a.mem- ber of the Society of Friends and was dis- owned for marrying out of meeting in 1756, but continued to adhere to their principles and was a "Non-Associator" in 1775. He married, in November, 1756, Mary Tomp-

kins, daughter of Robert Tompkins, Esq., of Warrington. She died August 8, 18II, at the age of seventy-five years. They had issue : I. Joseph, died 1796, married Re- becca Radcliffe, daughter of John and Re- becca (West) Radcliffe, niece of his aunt

He purchased from his father in 1797 and 1806, and later of his brother, Septimus Hough, portions of the old ancestral homestead, and at his death owned the greater part of the 400 acre tract, and lived thereon all his life. He was a prominent man in the community and filled many positions of pub- lic trust. He was a director of the poor in 1818, and served as a director of Doyles- town Bank in 1832. He married, August 24, 1791, Hannah Simpson, born July 26, 1770, died April 3, 1848, daughter of John and Hannah (Roberts) Simpson, of Hors- ham, Montgomery county, Pennsylvania, and a sister to John Simpson, the grand- father of General Ulysses Simpson Grant .* John Simpson, her father, was born in 1738, and died August 16, 1804.

C., and died there in 1901; and George, still liv- ing in Valva, Illinois.

Silas Hough was born and reared on the Warrington homestead, and on his marri- age removed to the farm on which his son Benjamin now resides. He was a successful and prominent farmer, and filled many positions of public trust, frequently acting as guardian of minors and as execu- tor and administrator in the settlement of estates. In politics he was a Republican. and took an active interest in the questions of the day, but never sought or held pub- lic office. He married, March 3, 1855, Han- nah Horner, daughter of James and Amn (Long) Horner, of Warminster, Bucks county, both of Scotch-Irish ancestry. Si- las and Hannah (Horner) Hough, were the parents of four children, of whom three died in childhood, leaving Benjamin Hough as only surviving heir. Hannah Hough died in 1890, and Silas in 1892.

Benjamin Hough, only son of Silas and Hannah (Horner) Hough, was born on the farm on which he still resides, in Warring- ton township, March 12, 1854, and it has been his place of residence almost continu- ously to the present, covering over half a century. He acquired a common school education, supplemented by a course at the Doylestown English and Classical Seminary. He was reared to the life of a farmer, and on his marriage he brought his bride to the old farm which he conducted until 1883; when he removed to Chester county and spent two years there on an experimental farm. After the death of his father he re- turned to the homestead, having in the meantime gained new knowledge of modern farming methods which he adapted to the use of the home place. He made substantial improvements and greatly improved the ap- pearance of his beautiful home on the Doylestown and Willow Grove Turnpike and Trolley line, overlooking the beautiful valley of the Neshaminy. Mr. Hough is a Republican in politics and takes a keen in- terest in public affairs, but has never been an aspirant for office. He has filled the position of school director and other town- ship offices. He married, September 28, 1876, Sarah Patterson, daughter of Jesse R. and Mary (Myers) Patterson, both na- tives of Bucks county, and granddaughter of William and Sarah (Rubinkam) Patter- son, the former a native of Pittsburg, and the latter of Bucks county. William Patter- son was of Scotch-Irish Presbyterian stock, and inherited the sterling as well as the genial qualities of his ancestors. He was a farmer in Bucks county, and reared a family of seven children, viz: Jesse, the father of Mrs. Hough; Mrs. Susan Bolin- ger, Margaret, William, of Doylestown;

Sheridan T., a farmer near Peoria, Illinois ; Joseph, who died in the army during the civil war; and Thomas, who died in Illi- nois. Jesse Patterson, father of Mrs. Hough, was reared on his father's farm and early in life learned the miller's trade which he followed for many years. He was at one time the owner of the mills at Edisob, Bucks county, which he operated when the mill was destroyed by fire. He rebuilt and operated the mill during the civil war, and later turned his attention to farming. In 1880 he removed to Chester county, where he bought a farm and carried on agricul- tural pursuits until his death in 1885, at the age of fifty-eight years. His wife, Mary Myers, who was a daughter of Tobias My- ers. of German descent, died in 1901. Her mother, a Miss Puff, was of English de- scent, and her brothers were Philip Puff, a merchant of Philadelphia, and Henry Puff, a carpenter. Jesse and Mary Myers Pat- terson were the parents of three children, of whom the youngest died in infancy, Sa- rah, Mrs. Hough, was the eldest. Her brother William is a prominent farmer in Chester county. Mrs. Hough is a member of the Baptist Church of Doylestown.
