Pugh. By his first marriage there were three children,- Walter P., Elmer E., and William M .; and by his second two,-Joseph Cecil and Elwood Abner. In 1862 he pur- chased his farm of 210 acres, situated about one mile from Oxford, and on it built his fine residence, and made many valuable improvements. His place is called "Peace and Plenty." He learned in his youth the miller's trade, which he pursued until his removal to this farm. He has re- peatedly served in township offices and on the school board. His wife is a daughter of Abner Pugh and Charlotte Michener, both descended from old families.

RHOADS, JOHN, and Elizabeth, his wife, of Derby- shire, had the following children : Adam, b. 6, 30, 1660; Mary, b. 11, 30, 1662; John, b. 6, 13, 1664 ; Elizabeth, b. 11, 7, 1667 ; Jacob, b. 12, 16, 1670; Abraham, b. 10, 11, 1672 ; Sarah, b. 3, 5, 1675 ; Hannah, b. 12, 15, 1677; Joseph, b. 2, 5, 1680.

ADAM RHOADS, "the sone of John and Elizabeth Roads, of Wingreayes, County of Darby," England, immigrated to Pennsylvania in 1684, and settled in Darby (now Upper Darby) township. He was from Codnor, in Derbyshire. In 1691 he was married at Darby Meeting to Katharine, the daughter of John Blunston. He was a good citizen, and attended diligently to his religious duties. His children were John, Hannah, Sarah, Elizabeth, Joseph, and Adam. Katharine died 1733, and Adam in 1744-5.

JOHN RHOADS, JR., came from Whitlow, in Derbyshire. He was the son of John and Elizabeth Rhoads, and settled in Philadelphia, where he married Hannah Wilcox in 1692. He probably removed to White Marsh.

JOHN RHOADS, the elder, father of the above-named John and Adam Rhoads, immigrated to Pennsylvania some time after 1696, accompanied by his youngest son, Joseph, and probably by another son, Jacob. He at first settled in Philadelphia, but removed to Darby previous to his death in 1701. It is supposed his wife, Elizabeth, died before he left England. He devised to his son Joseph land in Marple, and to his son John land in White Marsh.

JOSEPH RHOADS, the next year after the death of his father, the above-named John Rhoads, was married to Abigail, the daughter of Richard Bonsall, of Darby (now Upper Darby), in accordance with the usages of the Society of Friends. Their children were John, Mary, Elizabeth, Abigail, Rebecca, Joseph, Jane, Benjamin, and James. Joseph settled in Marple, on the land devised to him by his father, which is still owned and occupied by his descend- ants. He died in 1732, and his widow in 1750.

JAMES RHOADS, son of Joseph, married, 6, 22, 1745, Elizabeth, daughter of John Owen, of Springfield, and had a son, Joseph, who married, 5, 27, 1779, Mary, daughter of George Ashbridge, of Goshen. They resided in Marple, and were the parents of James, George, Joseph, Elizabeth, Rebecca, Phebe, and William. The last named, born 4, 2, 1797, married Anne P. Levis and settled in Newtown, where his children-George, William, Esther, and Phebe- were born. George, born 2, 20, 1833, married, 10, 20, 1853, Elizabeth Letchworth, born 11, 3, 1826, died in Philadelphia, 6, 13, 1866 ; second marriage, 6, 17, 1868, at Camden, N.

RICHARDS, JOSEPH, of Newgate, in the parish of Whitney, and county of Oxon, mason, with his wife, Jane, came to Pennsylvania as early as 1685. He died in Chi- chester township about 1710. His children were Joseph, Nathaniel, Ann (m. to Anthony Weaver and Humphrey Scarlet), and Susanna (m. to James Lownes, of Spring- field).

Nathaniel, a blacksmith, married Mary, daughter of Richard Mason, and died in Aston in 1700, leaving chil- dren,-William, Nathaniel, Elizabeth, and Mary. Some time after this the widow married Thomas Rowland and removed to the Toughkenamon Valley, in New Garden, where they settled on a large tract (700 acres) of land, called Marberry. Thomas died in 1708, and the deed for the land was made to the widow October 2d in that year. She was married a third time, 8, 30, 1713, to Evan Pow- ell, of Nottingham, who came to live on her property. Her children: William and Mary Richards probably died young, Elizabeth married Roger Kirk, and Nathaniel married Mar- garet, daughter of Allen Wiley. To him Evan Powell and wife conveyed 300 acres of the land in 1717, and 110 more in 1718. He died in 1730, leaving three sons,-William, Nathaniel, and Isaac. Margaret, his widow, married Wil- liam Carpenter prior to 1735, and in 1748 was again left a widow. She died in West Bradford, 12, 5, 1796, aged ninety years, and leaving 113 descendants. The land of Nathaniel Richards was divided among his sons, William, the eldest, receiving 215 acres, Nathaniel 128, and Isaac 114 acres. William married, 4, 13, 1751, Joanna Jenkins, and 5, 10, 1759, Jane Miller.

Isaac Richards married, 1, 17, 1753, Mary Gregg, of Kennet, and had children,-Thomas, Nathaniel, Isaac, William, Mary, and Lydia. Of these, Isaac, b. 4, 18, 1759, d. 6, 22, 1854, married, 12, 21, 1785, Ann Pusey, and, as second wife, Tamzen Hoopes. By the first wife he had children,-Joshua, Samuel E., and William; and by the second, Ann, John, and Phebe. John was born 4, 8, 1804, and owns and occupies a part of the original home- stead in New Garden.

ROWLAND RICHARDS was an early settler in Tredyffrin. His children were Margaret, Elizabeth, Sarah, Ruth, Sam- uel, and perhaps others. Margaret married John Long- worthy in 1711, Elizabeth married Jacob Thomas, 1717, Sarah married Cadwalader Evans, 1722, and Ruth married Robert Evans, 1729.

Rowland Richards, son of Samuel, of Tredyffrin, married, 5, 22, 1750, Mary Miles, daughter of Richard Miles, of Radnor.

RICHARDSON, ISAAC, who appears to have come from Lancashire, England, in or before 1714, settled in Whiteland, where he died in 1726. His wife, Katharine, formerly Gandy, was born 7, 29, 1681, in Cheshire, and on her coming to this country received a certificate from Hartshaw Monthly Meeting, dated 12, 15, 1714, but it is

thought that she had left England before that date. Her husband was not in membership with Friends. Their chil- dren were Mary, b. 5, 1, 1709, m. Jacob Wright, James House, and John Baldwin; Elizabeth, b. 9, 10, 1710, m. John Chads ; Ellin, or Elinor, b. 10, 28, 1714, m. Abra- ham Parker and William Wickersham ; Martha, b. 3, 23, 1717, m. Robert Stewart; Jehu, b. 9, 21, 1721.

Isaac, the father, bought 550 acres of land from Richard Thomas, which was divided among his children. His widow married Robert Benson, of Uwchlan.

RILEY, RICHARD, was born, of English parents, at Mar- cus Hook, Chester (now Delaware) Co., Dec. 14, 1735. He was appointed a justice of the peace in 1766, and was continued in that capacity until the Revolution. When the public attention was directed to the controversy with the mother-country, Richard Riley was found with Anthony Wayne, Francis Johnston, Richard Thomas, William Mont- gomery and the other early asserters of American rights, attending the county gatherings of the people, to devise measures of defense. He was one of the Provincial Con- ference which appointed new delegates to the Continental Congress, with instructions to vote for independence, five of their immediate predecessors having flinched on that momentous question. When Chester County was divided, in 1789, Mr. Riley was elected to the Legislature from the new county, and continued two years. He was afterwards appointed associate judge of Delaware County, and died Aug. 27, 1820, in his eighty-fifth year.

RICKABAUGH, DR. JACOB .- Adam Rickabaugh, an emigrant from Switzerland, on the Rhine, settled in Chester County before 1767, for in that year the records show that he purchased 125 acres of land in Tredyffrin township from David Jones. In 1771, in connection with Christian Zook, he bought of John Beaton 200 acres in Charlestown, and in 1804, 53 acres of John and Richard Penn. Besides this last tract, located in Tredyffrin, he bought several others. During the Revolution, on Washington's retreating from the Brandywine he passed by Adam Rickabaugh's farm, where his soldiers were fed. Adam's son, David, the youngest of fourteen children, married Elizabeth Young, daughter of Peter Young, who came to this country about the time Adam Rickabaugh arrived. To David and Eliza- beth Rickabaugh were born six children,-four sons and two daughters,-of whom the third son and fifth child was Dr. Jacob Rickabaugh, born Feb. 6, 1815, on the farm he now owns. David died in his seventy-fifth year, and his wife in her eighty-second. She belonged to the German Reform and he to the Mennonite Church. Adam and David Rickabaugh were farmers and men of splendid physique. Dr. Jacob Rickabaugh spent his boyhood on the farm and went to the neighboring subscription schools. He also attended the famous classical school presided over by Prof. Joshua Jones, an eminent educator in his day and author of a standard work on grammar. He read medicine with Dr. James Francis Latta, of Tredyffrin, and attended lectures at Medical Department of Pennsylvania College, of Philadelphia, at which institution he was graduated in March, 1842. He now located at his old home in Tredyf- frin, where he has since remained in active practice, suc- ceeding his old preceptor, Dr. Latta, who died just pre-

vious to his graduation. His practice has been large, successful, and remunerative. He married Anna S., daugh- ter of J. S. Pound, of Walworth, Wayne Co., N. Y., by whom he has three surviving children,-David Walter, Mary Elizabeth, and Sarah Emma. One, Anna Catharine, died in her second year. Originally a Democrat, he has been an ardent Republican since the Kansas-Lecompton troubles of President Buchanan's administration. His medical preceptor, Dr. Latta, was an eminent physician, and son of Rev. William Latta, D.D., pastor for half a century of the Great Valley Presbyterian Church, which Dr. Rickabaugh's family attends, and to which, as well as to that of the Mennonites, the doctor is a liberal contributor. He has a pleasant home with beautiful surroundings.

RING, NATHANIEL, purchased land in Bradford towo- ship in 1710 and 1712, and died there in 1714. His widow, Elizabeth, married George Strode. Nathaniel's children, so far as known, were William, eldest son, Na- thaniel, Benjamin, Elizabeth, and Elias. Of William nothing further is known. Nathaniel, Jr., perhaps mar- ried, first, Elizabeth Coebourn ; he married Lydia Vernon, 4, 6, 1728, and Elizabeth, widow of Archibald McNeil, after 1742. He died Dec. 10, 1766, and was buried at Upper Octorara church, his residence being in West Marl- borough. His son Nathaniel died March 26, 1766, aged twenty years, and was buried at the same place. A daughter, Hannah, married Thomas Gibson, of Birmingham, 9, 27, 1751. His only surviving son, Benjamin, married, 12, 6, 1758, Rachel, daughter of Samuel James, and was living near Chads' Ford at the time of the battle of Brandywine. He died 8, 10, 1804, and his wife 2, 27, 1804. Their

children were Elias, Samuel, Thomas, Nathaniel, Lydia, Benjamin, Rachel, Joshua, and Elizabeth.

Benjamin Ring, son of the first Nathaniel, was a joiner, and died in Birmingham, November, 1767, " being by acci- dent sorely wounded," and left a wife Susanna, son Na- thaniel, and daughter Elizabeth Chandler. Nathaniel mar- ried about this time Hannah, daughter of James and Mary Brinton, and was the grandfather of Nathaniel and Caleb Ring, near Chads' Ford.

Elizabeth Ring, daughter of Nathaniel (1), married John Neild, of Aston, and about 1724 a second husband, William Jefferis.

RINGWALT, JACOB, from Würtemberg, landed at Philadelphia, Sept. 28, 1753, and settled in Lancaster County. By his wife, Barbara Wagner, he had three sons, Jacob, Martin, and George, the latter dying at nine- teen years of age, about 1777. Jacob married Catharine, daughter of Adam Diller, and they were the parents of fourteen sons and four daughters, of whom a son, Samuel, was born at New Holland, Lancaster Co., July 14, 1799, and died at Downingtown, Chester Co., May 13, 1875. He in early life took a prominent part in the affairs of Lancaster, his native county, where he filled many positions of trust and responsibility, and also served as deputy sheriff and brigade inspector. His duties in this connection brought him prominently before the public, who highly esteemed him for the genial courtesy of his manner and the integrity of his character. In 1840 he removed to Chester County, which continued to be his residence, save when his duties as brigade quartermaster under the gallant Meade called him to the field in defense of his country.

With Hon. John Hickman and other distinguished men of Chester County, Col. Ringwalt took a prominent part in protesting against the outrage attempted to be perpetrated by the passage of the Lecompton bill. He was a patriot in the fullest sense of the term, a valued and respected citizen, and a successful practical farmer. Col. John For- ney, writing of him, referred to " his deep interest in sci- entific agriculture, his devotion to his State and country, and especially his experience in the war, when in his six- tieth year he entered the Union army and served honorably in a most responsible position. He was a type of the best condition of a Pennsylvania farmer. Down to the day of his death his fondness for books and society, his earnest devotion to the development of his town and country, and his advanced views in everything relating to the improve- ment and cultivation of the soil, were actively maintained."*

He was married three times : first, on March 9, 1824, to Sarah McCausland, daughter of Maj. William McCausland, of Leacock, by whom he had one child, that died in in- fancy ; second, to Louisa Luther, by whom he had four children,-John Luther (born Oct. 18, 1828), George Bryan Porter, Louisa Catharine, and Samuel; third, to Anna Parke, by whom he had Thomas Parke (died in in- fancy), Jacob Parke, Jane Edge, and Abiah Parke. John L. and George B. P. are residents of Philadelphia, and the former is well known in literary circles, being sometime one of the editors of the Press.

ROBERTS, GEN. GEORGE W .- The Roberts family is of Welsh descent. Robert Roberts married Elizabeth Pratt, whose son, Pratt Roberts, was married to Ann, daughter of Charles and Ruth Wilson, of East Marlborough. Ann Wilson's grandfather, Charles Wilson, was an emigrant from Ireland, and her grandfather on her mother's side was Jesse Taylor. The eldest son, and one of five children of Pratt Roberts and his wife, Ann ( Wilson), was George W. Roberts, born in East Goshen, Oct. 2, 1833. He was killed at Stone River (near Murfreesboro'), Dec. 31, 1862, in which battle he was acting brigadier-general under Sheridan. He spent his boyhood days on the home farm where born. He at- tended school in West Chester, under that famous teacher, Anthony Bolmar, at Poughkeepsie, N. Y., and at Haver- ford. He then went to Yale College, entering the Sopho- more class in 1854, and was graduated with high honors in 1857. He had read law while at Yale, and on his return home continued his reading with Hon. Joseph J. Lewis, whose office he entered and with whom he completed his legal studies. He was admitted to the bar in 1858, at West Chester, and there practiced his profession until the spring of 1859, when he removed to Chicago. There, while in the successful practice of his profession, he deter- mined to enter the army, and in company with David Stewart began recruiting for the 42d Illinois Volunteers. July 22, 1861, he received. his commission as major of the regiment, and on September 17th was elected lieuten- ant-colonel, and upon the death of Col. Webb, Dec. 24, 1861, he was chosen colonel. With his regiment Col. Roberts took part in the well-known march of Gen. Fre- mont to Springfield, after which the 42d went into quarters

at Smithtown, Mo. After the fall of Fort Donelson the colonel proceeded with his regiment to Fort Holt, near Cairo, where he held command of the fort, at that time garrisoned by his regiment (42d Illinois Volunteers), 8th Ohio, and a battery of the 2d Illinois Artillery. Thence he was ordered to Columbus after its evacuation by the enemy, and next proceeded to Island No. 10, where he per- formed a most valuable service during a night expedition in spiking a number of guns. Here Col. Roberts made his first mark as one of the heroes of the army. Seeing the boats could not pass the island unless the upper battery was silenced, the muzzles of all the guns of which were but a few inches above water, and which could have sunk any boat which might try to pass, he conceived the idea of spik- ing their guns. On the dark and stormy night of April 1, 1862, when almost a hurricane lashed the waters of the Mississippi, he embarked with but forty men of his regi- ment, in five small boats, upon that perilous expedition. Its success is history,-noble, grand, and sublime. His regiment was next ordered to Fort Pillow, and from there accompanied Gen. Pope up the Tennessee, and took part in the engagement at Farmington. He distinguished himself in that battle, where he, with Company B of his regiment, covered the retreat. He then served under Brig .- Gen. Pal- mer, and marched from Decatur to Nashville in command of the 1st brigade, 1st division, Army of the Mississippi. Col. Roberts distinguished himself in several skirmishes with the rebels while intrusted with his command, particu- larly during the siege of Nashville and its bombardment, Nov. 5, 1862, in which he repelled the enemy from every point assigned to him to defend. Wearied with garrison life, he soon applied to Gen. Rosecrans for more active duty, and was ordered to report to Gen. Sheridan. On the morn- ing of Dec. 30, 1862, he had the advance of the 20th Army Corps, and his skirmish drove the rebels to their breast- works. On the 31st his brigade fought most bravely, en- gaging two rebel divisions at once,-one in front and one on the right flank,-and not until a third division of the rebels came on his left flank and rear did his troops fall back. He then changed front along the Wilkerson pike, and while gallantly inspiring his men with his words and deeds a fatal ball struck him, wounding him mortally. One incident is worthy of mention. While a rebel division (Cleburne's) were driving some of our regiments before them he asked permission from Gen. Sheridan to charge upon the enemy, which was granted. Galloping up before the 42d Illinois, he waved his cap and ordered them to fix bayonets. The men, filled with enthusiasm at this exhibition of bravery by their loved commander, rushed upon the rebel ranks with irre- sistible vehemence, and the enemy broke and fled in great confusion. , The discomfiture of the rebel force at that mo- ment was most opportune. It delayed their renewed attack upon our right wing for a considerable time, thus permit- ting the reforming of our broken columns, and unquestion- ably greatly contributed to stem the adverse tide of fortune and to the achievement of final victory. When he fell his commission was made out promoting him to a brigadier- generalship. George W. Roberts lives in the memory and affections of the people for his life-blood services to his country.

HISTORY OF CHESTER COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA.

JAMES C. ROBERTS .- One of the numerous examples of poor boys rising by their industry, good character, and talents to become leading business men is that of James C. Roberts. He was born Sept. 5, 1822, at Pleasant Valley, Dutchess Co., N. Y., and was married, Sept. 5, 1842, to Asenath Kelly Reed, of Framingham, Mass., born March 16, 1825. The fruits of this union were seven children, -George C., Josephine, Charles N. (dec'd), Edward D., James C., Jr., Anna Elizabeth, m. Thomas A. Lloyd; and George B. M.

About the year 1850, Mr. Roberts came to Manayunk, in this State, where he lived two or three years, and then returned to Dalton, Mass., where he remained about one year. He then came again to Manayunk, and afterwards to Fisherville. There he began as a collier, rose to be manager, and obtained an interest in the woolen-mills, be- sides his salary under Mr. During.

He was a member of the Masonic and Odd-Fellows' orders, and most charitable in his intercourse with the world, giving largely to all the churches in his neighborhood. Was a Republican in politics and a warm supporter of the government in the war for the suppression of the Rebel- lion. He was self-educated, and never attended school after the seventh year of his age.

JOHN ROBERTS, son of John, of Merion, married, 9, 3, 1720, Hannah, daughter of Robert and Lowry (Jones) Lloyd, of Merion, born 9, 21, 1699, died 1, 15, 1763. John died the next year, and his only child, of the same name, was born after his father's death. The widow mar- ried, 9, 22, 1722, William Paschall, of Whiteland, widower, and after his death became the wife of Peter Osborne, 4, 6, 1734.

JAMES C. ROBERTS.

He rented of W. D. McFarland the old mill and operated it two or three years, and then purchased it about 1862-63. There were then only seven houses at this point, and he built up the place, erecting houses and making additions to the mill. The average number of hands employed in this woolen-mill from the time he purchased until now was sixty. It is now operated by his son, James C. Roberts, Jr., is called Beaver Mills, is three miles from Downingtowo, and is one of the best manufacturing establishments in the State. Mr. Roberts died July 5, 1872, aged forty-nine years and ten months.

In 1849 he was elected a representative from Chester County to the State Legislature, and served one term with great acceptance to his constituents. He was ever a true friend of the poor and needy, and was universally esteemed, and his death in his prime of life made a vacancy hard to be filled in the social and business circles of the county.
