They have three children : Edmond E., Ira E., Walter A., and Claude E.

EDMUND E. DESH, son of Alexander K., was born June 4, 1872. He received his education in the public school and the Normal School at Kutztown. He learned telegraphy and was in the employ of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company thirteen years. He was sta- tioned at different places and resigned his position when he was agent at Temple, Pa.

He was in the newspaper business at Hazle- ton for several years and in 1906 he engaged in real estate and insurance business in Allentown, being located at 728 Hamilton street (second floor ). In 1906 he was married to Isabella Beck- er, daughter of Simon Becker. They have no children.

William Desch was born in 1798 and followed farming in Upper Macungie. He was the father of the following children: Henry, Elizabeth, Samuel, Sallie, married to James Gackenbath ; Jacob, Peter, Benjamin, William and James.

Samuel Desch was born in Upper Macungie Nov. 7, 1823. He was a blacksmith and follow- ed the trade at Weissport, Laureys and Iron Bridge. In 1847 he was married to Maria Anna Leiser, who was born in 1825 and died in 1881. Their children are: Sarah, married to Jeremiah Henritzy; Anna Maria, married to Frank Haas, of Denver, Col .; Serena L. and Adamissa, mar- ried to Rev. H. A. Weller, of Orwigsburg, Pa.

Mrs. Sarah Desch Henritzy, of Allentown, is the owner of the grandfather clock, formerly owned by Adam Desch. It bears the date 1780 and initials A. D. The date and initials are in- laid in light colored wood on the outside case.

DESHLER FAMILY.

The name Deschler is of Swiss origin. The direct ancestor in America was Capt. David Deshler, who was aide-de-camp to Prince Lewis, of Baden, Germany, in the war of the Spanish Succession. He married, in 1711, Maria Wus- ter, born in 1690, daughter of Hans Casper Wus- ter, and Anna Catharine, his wife.

David Deshler, son of Capt. David Deshler and his wife, Maria Wuster, arrived at Phila- delphia, on the ship Hope, on August 28, 1733. He entered the counting house of his uncle, John Wistar, and became a leading hardware and paint merchant. The Philadelphia Direc- tory of 1767-1768, records the following: "David Deshler, Director Phila. Contribution, hardware, paints, etc. Opp. Butchers Shambles, Market St. Sign of Green Frying Pan."

David Deshler built the historic Morris Man-

sion,* at Germantown, but died at his home on Market street on March 20, 1792, aged 81 years.

He married, March 20, 1738, Maria, daugh- ter of Isaac and Catharine (Feree) Le Fevre. She was born Sept. 24, 1715, died on Feb. 25,

*This mansion, which is situated No. 5442 Ger- mantown avenue, Philadelphia, was built in the years 1772-3-4 by David Deshler, a merchant of Philadelphia, who was so noted for his integrity that his name passed into a proverb-"as honest as David Deshler." The late David Lewis, a short time before his death, handed to Mr. Elliston P. Morris, the present owner (1898) of the mansion, a package of papers in the German language containing memo- randa made by David Deshler, his grandfather. Upon deciphering and translating them, Mr. Morris found that one referred to the building of this man- sion, giving the description and cost of material and labor for its erection, between the years 1772- 1774.

At the time of the Battle of Germantown in 1777, Sir William Howe removed his headquarters to this house, the tradition says, that Prince William (after- wards William IV), paid him a visit there.

David Deshler continued to live in this house dur- ing the summer season, until his death in 1792. It was then sold to Col. Isaac Franks, of the Revolu- tionary army, who lived there until 1802. But in the year 1793, when yellow fever was raging in Philadelphia, this house was selected as a temporary residence for Gen. Washington, and Col. Franks ac- ceded to the request to rent it to the President. Gen- eral Washington, writing to Burgess Ball from Ger- mantown, under date of Nov. 24, 1793, makes a ref- erence to this house :

"The malady with which Philadelphia has been sorely afflicted, has, it is said, entirely ceased, and all the citizens are returning to their old habitants again. I took a house in this town when I first ar- rived here, and shall retain it until Congress get themselves fixed ; although I spent part of my time in the city."

In 1802, the house was purchased by the brothers Elliston and John Perot, gentlemen of Huguenot ex- traction, and they used it as a summer residence. On the death of Elliston Perot in 1834, it became a part of his estate, in the settlement of the joint estate of the two brothers. His only daughter, Han- nah, had married Samuel B. Morris, of the old ship- ping firm of Waln & Morris, and Mrs. S. B. Mor- ris purchased the house in 1836, from his brother- in-law, Francis Perot. Mr. Morris lived in it until his death in 1859, leaving it by his will, to his son, Elliston Perot Morris, who now resides there.

The Germantown Morris House is built in the colonial syle, having a frontage of forty feet, which, tradition says, would have been wider, but for a noble plum tree on the south side, which David Deshler, the owner of the property, was averse to removing. The main body of the building is about forty feet in depth, with back buildings, extending into the large beautiful garden, which, commencing alongside and running southward, presents a width of one hundred feet, and extends westward 435 feet. In it may be seen some magnificent trees, and box bushes more than a century old. [Recorded in History Morris Family, Philadelphia, Vol. II, pp. 670, 680.1

1774. They were the parents of six children, namely :

Isaac, who died Sept. 18, 1749.

Samuel, who died Aug. 17, 1751.

Sarah, who died Oct. 1I, 1757.

Mary, married to Ellis Lewis.

Esther, married to John Morton.

Catharine, married to Robert Roberts.

The first three of the above named children died unmarried. The three sons-in-law were

merchants in Philadelphia. This family were members of the Friends Meeting House on Race street, Philadelphia. The archives of this Meet- ing House record the marriages of their three daughters, the death of the three above-named children, and the death of their noble parents.

The family were of the nobility in Germany, and at least three branches were honored with escutcheons.

Anthony Deshler, a brother of David, married Mary Elizabeth Bensel, and had two sons and three daughters.

Adam Deshler, another son of Capt. David, was one of the first to settle in Whitehall town- ship, Lehigh county, being one of its pioneer set- tlers. Alfred F. Berlin, the noted historian and archæalogist, in an article read before the Lehigh County Historical Society, quotes the following:

"An original warrant now in possession of The Lehigh Portland Cement Company, gave by patent from James Hamilton, then Governor of Pennsyl- vania, per John and Richard Penn, the proprietaries, to Adam Deshler, dated May 5, 1751 (Patent Book, Phila., Pa., A. Vol. 15, page 593), three tracts of land situate near the west branch of the Delaware river- the Lehigh River-on or near Indian Copelin's Creek, containing 30134 acres. One of the boundaries con- tained in the description of one of the tracts contain- ing 200 acres is the middle of Indian Copelin's Creek."

Adam Deshler was naturalized April 10, 1755. He was one of the most successful farmers in the township. From 1756 to 1758 he furnished pro- visions for the provincial troops in the French & Indian War. In the year 1760, Adam Deshler built a stone house,* upon this tract, which is

*Deshler's Fort, a relic of the times when Indians still frequented Lehigh county, stands on the north bank of Coplay creek, on a little eminence over- looking the meadows through which Coplay creek flows. It is a substantially built structure, forty feet long by thirty in width, two and a half stories high, with walls two feet thick, and heavy timbers supporting the interior. There were originally but a few small windows in the sides, each with four panes of glass, but more have since been added, and in the gable ends there were a row of loop-holes. A large hearth and chimney occupies the center of the house, and divides the lower and upper stories into

still standing and in a good state of preservation, still giving unmistakable evidence by its heavy walls of superior masonry construction, that it was built to serve other purposes than those of an ordinary farm home. Adjoining the stone building upon the north, was a large frame build- ing in which twenty soldiers might be comfort- ably quartered, and a considerable quantity of military stores kept. During the Indian troubles this place was a kind of military post, furnished gratuitously by Adam Deshler, who was one of the most liberal and humane men in the region. He was a member of the Egypt Re- formed congregation, and is buried in the grave- yard there. His last will and testament, dated Jan. 22, 1772, was probated Sept. 20, 1781. He bequeathed his property to his widow and six children, the oldest son, David, being appointed the executor of the will. The children of Adam and Appolonia Deshler follow :

I. Eva Catharine Deshler married Peter Burk- holder, who was a prominent Revolutionary pa- triot. They had three children, namely: John Peter, married to Dorothea Steckel; Magdalena, to Lieut: Col. Stephen Balliet; and Barbara, wife of Henry Epply.

II. David Deshler, the oldest son of Adam and Appolonia Deshler, was born in 1734; was naturalized on April 10, 1761, and was a miller by trade. In 1767, he purchased from James Allen, a tract of land, the interesting deed for this property follows :

This Indenture made the twenty-fourth day of February, in the seventh year of the reign of our Sovereign Lord, George the Third, by the Grace of God of Great Britain, France and Ireland, King De- fender of the Faith etc. in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and sixty-seven, between James Allen of the Town of Northampton in the County of Northampton, in the Province of Penn- sylvania, Esquire, Of the one part and David Desh- ler of the said Town of Northampton, yeoman, of the other part, witnesseth: That the said James Allen for and in consideration of the sum of five hundred pounds lawful money of Pennsylvania, unto him in hand well and truly paid by the said David Deshler, at and before the sealing and delivery here-

of of the receipt whereof the said James Allen doth hereby acknowledge and hereby acquit and for- ever discharge the said David Deshler his heirs and assigns by these presents hath granted bargained, sold, released and confirmed and by these presents doth grant, bargain, sell and release and confirm unto the said David Deshler, his heirs and assigns, the certain tract or piece of land situate in Salisbury township in the said County of Northampton, be- ginning at a white oak marked for a corner, upon the southern a bank of the Little Lehi creek, so called, thence extending by the said James Allen's other land to the three courses and distances next following; that is to say, south, six degrees, east sixty-nine perches, to a post, and north eighty-four degrees, east one hundred and twenty perches to post, and north six degrees, west fifty-six perches. to a post placed for a corner on the bank of the aforesaid creek, thence up the said creek to five courses and distances next follow- ing, viz : north seventy-two degrees, west twenty-four perches, south eighty-four degrees, west thirty-one perches, north eighty-two degrees, west sixteen perches, north sixty-one degrees, west twelve perches and a half, and south seventy-three degrees, west forty-two perches to a place of beginning. Contain- ing by computation fifty acres and six perches or thereabouts, be the same more or less. Together with the free right, liberty and privilege to and for the said David Deshler his heirs and assigns, occu- piers of a certain Grist Mill, intended to be erected and built upon the tract of land above described, to raise, make and forever hereafter support and main- tain a dam or dams across the said creek for swelling the water thereof to such height as he or they shall see cause to divert and lead the same unto the mill race and for supplying the said intended mill or mills at all times, forever hereafter with a sufficient head of water so as he or they do likewise make and for- ever support proper sluices or flood gates in the same dams for discharging the superfluous water of the said creek, occasioned, by any innundations or fresh- ets in the same and through which the fish at times may have a passage up the creek. And also (in as much as it will be necessary, the better to accommo- date'the said intended mill that the race be continued from the lowermost part of the tract of land hereby granted through a part of his the said James Allen's next adjacent land for the more easy conveyance and discharge of the water from the mill tail unto the said creek) the free right and privilege and for the said David Deshler, his heirs and assigns, occupiers of the said intended mill, at his and their pleasure, with or without workmen, horses, cattle and car- riages, to enter upon his the said James Allen's ad- jacent land, to dig open, continue, and make such race through the same land of the sufficient breadth and depth for passing the water from the said m'11 race unto the rivulet or creek aforesaid, with a good and sufficient free bord on each side of the said race for passing in and along the same and scouring and keeping open the same at all times forever hereafter, so as the same be done with as little detriment to the said land and the corn and herbage thereon, growing as reasonably as may be, and so as he or they make good the breaches in any fence thereby occasioned, together, also, with all and singular the ways and woods, water, water courses, rights, liberties, unto the hereby granted premises belonging or in any wise appertaining, etc. (Recorded at Easton, Pa .; in Deed Book B, Vol. 1, Page 181.)

"David Deshler during 1767 built upon the

two apartments. In the mantlepiece above this can be seen the bullet-holes made by the Indians. Ad- joining the house on the north, was a frame addi- tion, which sheltered the soldiers quartered there at the time of the Indian troubles in 1763. The house was well prepared to withstand any attacks, as it was so strongly built, and furthermore it is said there was a well within the walls.

tract of land above described, a certain grist- mill," of which a cut appears in Vol. I, page 398, of this history. He was one of the earliest set- tlers of what is now the city of Allentown, "where he is credited as having built the first house." He was assessed £9 in 1762, and in 1768 he was already taxed for a grist-mill, a saw-mill, and 75 acres of land, situated in Salis- bury township.

On May 1, 1767, his father sold him two tracts of land containing 195 acres on Jordan creek, which had been purchased from Peter Troxell, Nov. 25, 1758. The language of the deed follows : "Adam Deshler, of Whitehall township, yeoman, and Appolonia, his wife, in consideration of their mutual love and affection for their son David, and for the better promotion and advancement in the world as well as the sum of £200 do grant to David Deshler, a massuage and two tracts of land in Whitehall township, on a branch of the Lehi, commonly called the Jor- dan." These tracts Deshler sold in 1773 to George Schweyer, who sold them in 1779 to Barbara Huber, and she sold them to Rev. Abra- ham Blumer, in 1785.

During the Revolution he was one of the most prominent patriots in Northampton county. He acted as commissary of supplies for the army, and with Capt. John Arndt, of Easton, also a com- missary, advanced money to the Provincial gov- ernment out of his private means in 1780, when the public treasury was empty, and that too, at a time when the prospect of it being returned was not very bright. They both labored with un- flagging zeal to promote the welfare of the public cause, and to fill the quota of the county, as re- quired by the Acts of Congress and the Provin- cial Assembly. The following letter taken from (Penn. Archives 1779-1781, page 517) is of interest here :

"David Deshler to Pres. Reed, 1780.

ALLENTOWN, 24th Aug., 1780.

·Sir,

I have sent Mr. Charles Deshler, my assistant', who will call on you, for a supply of cash, and request you'll be pleas'd to send me fifty thousand ·pounds for the use of purchasing supplies for the army, without that article it is impossible for me to carry on the Business in the manner I could wish.

I can purchase one hundred head of cattle in ·one week's time, if I was supplied with money for that purpose.

I have the offer of five hundred Bushels of

Wheat from one person, but cannot have it for want of money.

"I am sir, Your Obt HumB St. DAVID DESHLER, Commisr for Northm County."

And further, an extract from the minutes of the Supreme Executive Council of Penn. (Col. Rec., Vol. XII, page 460.)

"PHILA., Sat., Aug. 26, 1780.

An order was drawn on the Treasurer in favour of Mr. Charles Deshler, for the sum of one thousand pounds, of the money emitted by an act of the General Assembly, passed the 25th day of March, last, to be by him paid to Colonel David Deshler, Commissioner of Purchases for the county of Northampton, for purchasing sup- plies for the use of the Army, to be charged to Colonel Jacob Morgan, Jr., Superintendent, &c., and deducted out of an order granted him on the 14th inst."

[The Charles Deshler here referred to, was a son-in-law of David Deshler.]

Colonel David Deshler was beyond doubt the most substantial resident of Northampton Town, in his time, and his influence helped very materi- ally in the successful culmination of the War for Independence. In 1787, he was a delegate to the convention called to ratify the Federal Constitu- tion. He was a man of great foresight and abil- ity, and his character and reputation were beyond reproach. In 1782, he purchased from John Benezet, a merchant of Philadelphia, for £1,800 specie, the fine home and tract of 331 acres of land along the Lehigh (then in Allen, now Han- over township) which had been previously owned by George Taylor,* who had built the house still standing on the tract in 1768, and which Mr. Taylor had sold to Mr. Benezet in 1776. Here he spent the latter part of his life, and died there on Dec. 24, 1796, aged 62 years. David and Susanna Deshler had ten children, as follows:
