EDGE, JOHN, with his wife Jane and family, emigrated from St. Andrew’s, Holborne, in the county of Middlesex, England, and settled in Nether Providence about the year 1685.

Ann, b. 12, 26, 1748; m. first, Robert Parke, second, Benjamin Taylor, and, third, William Trimble, by each of whom she had children.
John Edge, son of George and Ann, born in Upper Providence, 10th mo., 1744, learned the milling business with his uncle, Richard Downing, at what is now Downingtown, and while doing business at the "high mill," now of Jacob Edge, was married, 8, 1, 1768, at East Caln Meeting, to Anne Pim, daughter of Thomas and Frances Pim, of East Caln. He afterwards owned the Hibernia Mill, on the west branch of the Brandywine, and about 1790 built the "Half-way House," opposite the much-frequented mill of his cousin, Richard Downing. He here acted the host and kept store with his eldest son for some years, and was succeeded by his daughter, Sarah Reese (afterwards Hannum), on retiring to the "Ship" farm.
In 1792 he purchased from Dr. Thomas Parke the "Ship" property, enlarged the mansion to double its former size, and on the western half built for his son George the house now owned by John G. Edge, and established his son Thomas on the tract lying in the borough east of the present Hunt tract, and south of the Lancaster road, extending to the Brandywine. On this they had built the large mansion now owned by the estate of Charles Wells, deceased, and here Thomas kept store for a number of years. The house now (1876) owned by the Misses Reese, near the bridge, was one of the family enterprises, and he may be said to have been the pioneer in improving the southwestern section of the borough, as by him were sold the building-sites on which the older houses were placed.
To his youngest son, John, he gave the "Ship" property, 116 acres, now owned by Dr. Eshleman. He is represented as having possessed a great force of character and an active, enterprising temper, and was fortunate in business; a keen observer, he was given to sallies of humor or wisdom for the benefit of his neighbors, many of which were current long after his death, which occurred 9, 14, 1816.
The children of John and Ann Edge were Sarah, b. 10, 10, 1769,
m. ----- Reese, and, second, James Hannum; Jane, b. 10, 18, 1771, d. 2, 14, 1857; Thomas, b. 1, 29, 1774, m. 10, 15, 1806, Edith Pusey, daughter of Joshua and Hannah, of Londongrove; Ann, b. 7, 8, 1776, m. Thomas A. Parke; Fanny, b. 1, 29, 1779; George, b. 6, 30, 1782, d. 12, 31, 1831, m. 3, 19, 1806, Sarah, daughter of John and Jane Hoopes, b. 3, 29, 1784, d. 7, 30, 1832; John, b. 3, 3, 1785, d. 9, 11, 1832, m. 12, 18, 1811, at Londongrove Meeting, to Ruth, daughter of Francis and Hannah Wilkinson, of Londongrove, b. 12, 26, 1789, d. 5, 10, 1872; Mary, b. 10, 7, 1787, m. 11, 11, 1806, to Lea Pusey; Pim, b. 1, 9, 1792, d. 7, 5, 1795.
The children of Thomas and Edith Edge were Joshua P., b. 10, 11, 1807, m. 5, 3, 1837, to Sarah Ann Hewes, of Concord, both now deceased; Jacob, b. 11, 21, 1808, m. Anna, daughter of Robert and Elizabeth Valentine, and resides on Beaver Creek, in Caln township. He is president of the Downingtown Bank. Ann, b. 4, 21, 1811; Hannah, b. 8, 7, 1814, m. 10, 23, 1839, to Alfred Cope, ship-owner and merchant, of Philadelphia. She was the mother of Professor Edward D. Cope, of Philadelphia. Thomas, b. 3, 3, 1818; Susan, b. 12, 11, 1819; Jane, b. 4, 1, 1822; Jonas, b. 1, 21, 1824; Frances, b. 9, 16, 1826; Lydia E., b. 12, 4, 1830.
Thomas J. Edge, son of Joshua and Sarah Ann, while residing with his father on a farm in New Garden township, became interested in improved methods of agriculture, and was a contributor to agricultural journals. His labors in this field led to his being appointed secretary of the Pennsylvania Board of Agriculture, of which he has proved a very efficient officer.
The children of George and Sarah Edge were Mary, m. to Richard Pim, Jane P., John G., Joseph, Benjamin, Sarah Ann, Lydia P., and Priscilla. Of these, John G. and Joseph own fine farms in Caln township.
The children of John and Ruth Edge were Elizabeth, b. 10, 28, 1813; Fanny, b. 10, 11, 1815; Ruthanna, b. 10, 25, 1817, m. to Nathan J. Sharpless, now of Penn township; William, b. 9, 4, 1819, was for some time president of the Downingtown Bank, now a member of the Stock Board in Philadelphia, with residence at Downingtown; John P., b. 6, 22, 1822, a physician and unmarried.
Dr. John P. Edge was born in the old "Ship" tavern-house, in East Caln, now Caln township, June 22, 1822, and was a farm-boy until eighteen years of age, and attended the neighborhood schools, except three years which were spent at Westtown Friends’ Boarding-School. He then taught private and public schools, read medicine, and graduated M.D. at Jefferson Medical College in 1846, and entered upon the practice of his profession in Downingtown, which he pursued with success for thirty years.
He was a member of the House of Representatives of Pennsylvania from Chester County during the sessions of 1875, 1876, 1877, and 1878. His nomination was entirely spontaneous and unsolicited, and was an instance in which the office sought the man, and not the man the office. He served as chairman of the committee on Geologic Survey, and was also a member of the committees on Education, Agriculture, and Constitutional Reform. He originated and had passed the bill establishing the Board of Agriculture, which promises more of benefit to the farming interests than all else that has been done in that direction in this State. G.H. Morgan, in his "Legislative Sketch-Book," in speaking of Dr. Edge, says, "That his interest is especially centred in three questions that relate to the moral, industrial, and sanitary welfare of the masses was shown in the active part he took at the last session (1875) in his efforts to secure more enlarged accommodation for the poor of the State, and especially for the separate treatment of insane criminals, and by the fact that he presented more petitions, etc., to the House from the farming interest, and on questions of moral reform, than any other member."
He has been a member of the Chester County Medical Society from its revival, and has frequently represented it in the State and National Associations, and always endeavored to maintain the honor of the profession.
At the organization of the Board of Agriculture, in January, 1877, he was nominated by Governor Hartranft as a member for the State at large, and was, against his expressed wish, reappointed by Governor Hoyt.
On July 4, 1876, he made an address to the people of Downingtown, giving the history of the town and surrounding neighborhood, which is replete with interesting and instructive information.⁴ He was Quaker.

; John Edge, Sr., with Jane his wife, came from St. Andrews, Holbourne, in the county of Middlesex, England. He had purchased from William Penn 125 acres of land, by deeds of lease and release, dated March 21, 22 1681-2, and which was subsequently located in Nether Providence township, whereon they settled. They were active members of Friends' meeting and the monthly meeting was held at their house at different times, in 1695-8. John Edge is mentioned 3 mo. 6, 1689, as an arbitrator between John Worrall and Ann Johnson. He and Robert Vernon were "mdae choyce of for overseers of Providence Meeting" 1 mo. 25, 1706.

In Besse's "Sufferings of the Quakers." under date of 1680, we read that "In Trinity-Term this Year, Sir Hugh Windham, one of the Justices of the Common Pleases, brought into that Court at Westminister several Informations in the NMame of THomas Moore, as Informer, against Thomas Farmborow, of London, Charimaker, Henry Waddy, John Edge of St. Andrews, Holbourne, in the County of Middlesex, and John Jones of St. Andrews Holborne, GFlover, for £260 each of them, alledged to be forfeited for their not coming to hear Common-prayer for thirteen Months poast preceding the Information, on the Statue of 23d Eliz. made Against Popish Recusants." Some other Friends being in the like circumstances statement of the case was published and presented to the King and Parliament, and the House of Commons resolved that such prosecution of Protestant dissenters was dangerous to the peace of the kingdom, but failed to provide a remedy. In 1683 a warrant was granted against George Whitehead for preaching at a meeting in the parish of St. Margaret, Westminister, in pursuance of which a constable and assistants "came with much Fury and Violence, and broke open the SHoip,m Back door, and several other Doors belonging to the Chambers of George Whitehead, and seized all his Beds and Bedclothes, a large Looking-Glass, a Scrutore, Cane-Chairs, and other Househlod goods, also Currants and Sugar out of his Shiop, moderately valued by the Owner at £32, but were taken and carried away without suffering any Inventory, Weighing or Appraisement. It happened during the Time of this Seizure that two of George Whitehead's Friends, John Edge and Joseph Peckover, being accidentally Spectators of the breaking open his Doors, spoke civilly to the Constables to keep the Peace, and desired that an Inventory of the Goods might be taken, for which the Constables of meer Malice swore a Riot against them, and caused them to be bound over to appear at the next Sessions; at which they were fined and commited to Newgate, and there detained ten Weeks, to their great Loss, being men of considerable Trade and Business, and the said John Peckover above eighty Miles from Home". In this same year Richard Butcher, John Edge, Christopher Sibthorp, Anthony Ellwood and John Denton suffered distraints of their goods to the value £9 : 15s, for refusing to bear arms.

; "SMEDLEY, George, migrated from Derbyshire, England in 1682 or1683, in company with several of the Friends who settled at Darby. In1687 he was married to Sarah GOODWIN, whose maiden name was KITCHEN, thewidow of his intimate friend, John GOODWIN. The marriage was accomplished"at the meeting-house upon the front of the Delaware." His wife had onechild by her first marriage, but it died in its minority. Shortly after his marriage, George SMEDLEY removed to a tract of land he hadpurchased from the proprietary, and which was surveyed to him in 1684, in the township of Middletown.

1. From Lucille Van Cleave ? 2/16/96: Quoting from letter fro m Volney Weir, 1507 Sunnyside, South Bend, IN: " I am a member o f the Society of Magna Carta Barons. I got this through the fam ily Of Mary Clayton. She is descendant of three of the barons w ho signed the Magna Carta with King John of Great Britian in 121 5."

After contacting three descendants of this Mary Clayton, I hav e to believe that Mr. Weir has committed a major error. They have this Clayton line very well documented and none of them show this Mary Clayton married to a Mount. The William Clayton who married Mary Marten is NOT the father of our Mary.
