Fisher says,
in his 'Making of Pennsylvania,' that 'quite a number of Virginians
migrated from that Colony to the Banks of the Delaware before the
settlement of Philadelphia by Penn, in 1678, under the rule of the Duke
of York.'
NOTES ON RICHARD CANTRELL:
From 'Pennsylvania Archives,' Vol. XIX:
'At a meeting of the Commissioners, 6th of July, 1692. Present Captain
William Markham, Robert Turner, John Goodson, ... Richard Cantrill
requesting a warrant for a lot of 30 ft. upon Third Street, near the
Burying Ground, was granted.' From Original Records, Deed Book D, 53,
page 50: 'Richard Cantrill to Thomas Hall, Sold 30 ft. x 190 ft. May 13,
1693, Third and Market
Streets.'
In Patent Book A, Vol. II, page 344, there is a lease for twenty-one
years (May 5,1702) made by Edward Shippen, Griffith Owen and James
Logan, as Proprietaryand Governor in Chief of Pennsylvania and
Territories thereunto belonging ...of a ...'Certain tract of land
between Fifth and Sixth streets containing three acres and sixty perches'
(here follows a full description by metes and bounds) 'to Richard
Cantrill,
Brickmaker, with all woods and underwood and trees, ways, waters, water
courses, liberties, profits, commodities, advantagesand opportunities
whatsoever.' The rental was forty shillings per year, 'current silver
money of the Province.'... 'Said Richard Cantrill shall build, erect and
set up a substantial brick house one story and a half in height and in
breadth eighteeen feet and in length thirty-six feet; the first story of
one brick and a half and the second story of one brick, and further that
saidRichard Cantrill shall make a orchard upon some part of the hereby
granted land, with at least eighty good bearing apple trees planted
thereon, and shallalso well and sufficiently fence and enclose
the said demised land.'
In 'Pennsylvania Archives' we find:
'Cantrill, Old Rights: Richard Cantrill, citylot 3 acres, 10day, 10
month, 1701. Rich. return 3 acres, 3 month 1702.' Later the Archives
record a 'Caveat against surveying of land adjoining Richard Cantrill's
estate, issuing to the heirs, or executors of the said Richard Cantrill,
or any under him, May 31, 1753.'
No record could be found of the disposition of the estate of Richard
Cantrill, either by his heirs or executors,but he evidently died prior
to May 31, 1753.
MARRIAGE: In about 1693 Richard Cantrill married Dorothy Jones, daughter
of Ellis and Jane Jones, who came to America from either Flint, or
Denbigh, Wales, in the ship Submission, Sept., 1682.
From the Log of the Submission:
'Ellis Jones, age 45, Barbara Jones, age 13, Dorothy Jones, age 10, Jane
Jones, age 40, Mary Jones, age 12, Isaac Jones, age 4 mos.'
The 'Pennsylvania Historical Magazine,' in a list ofnames of 'Important
Colonists, who came in the Submission,' mentions Ellis Jones. He was a
resident of Bucks county, 1684, but did not remain there long,and in the
Welsh Tract Purchases his name appears as having purchased one hundred
acres in Nantonell parish, Radnor. Barbara Jones married Daniel Pegg, of
'Pegge's Run;' Mary Jones married her cousin Isaac Jones, and Dorothy
Jones married Richard Cantrill. Ellis Jones and his family were Quakers
and as Richard Cantrill belonged to the Church of England, Richard and
Dorothy were married, to use a Quater term, 'Out of Meeting.' Dorothy
Jones Cantrill seems to have been a young lady of considerable spirit and
independence of character. She not only married the man of her choice,
irrespective of her religious training, but later evidence is found of
her love of gayety and society in anold history of Philadelphia, where
she figured at a masquerade ball, much tothe horror of her more quiet
Quaker friends. She seems to have inherited herlove of society from her
mother, for the name of Jane Jones appears as a witness to the marriage
of a great many Quakers of
