Notes for Robert Vernon:
Robert Vernon and his wife came to Pennsylvania on the "Friendship" of Liverpool in August of 1663, with his brothers Randall and Thomas. They came from Cheshire, England, each buying acreage from William Penn. In the story of these Vernon Colonists, and in the area folklore, there are frequent referrals to these "three brothers".

A history of Rose Valley, 1973, specifically places the land of the Vernons on the east side of Ridley Creek and west of Providence Great Road (laid out in 1684). Robert's house may have been on Old Mill Lane , although the structure is also known as Bishop White's house. Willam White sent his family there during the yellow fever epidemic of 1793. A small stream there was named Vernon Run.

The descendents of Robert Vernon are eligible for the Welcome Society. The Vernons came to Pennsylvania before William Penn on one of the twenty three ships which came to Philidelphia before Penn's Welcome, October 1683

The three Vernon Brothers settled in Nether Providence, their lands adjoining each other. They had purchased over 1800 contiguous acres in the William Penn grant of March 1681. Robert Vernon was a Friend, (Quaker), and Monthly Meetings were sometimes held at his house, however, he reportedly did not take such an active part in meeting affairs as did his brothers, Thomas and Randall. The time of his death is in some quetion, as it is thought that he conveyed his brick message and 330 acres of land where he resided to his son Jacob in 1710.

These three Vernon brothers helped establish a Quaker Colony in what is now Chester, Pennsylvania.

Notes for Philip Matthias Gish:
Matthias Gish was a German emigrant who immigrated to colonial America from the Palantine region of Germany. Most of the emigrants from Germany at this time were Palantines, from the region of Germany. Most of the emigrants from Germany at this time were Palantines, from the Palatinate and surrounding German speaking areas.

Germany, as a country, has not existed for long. Prior to 1871, what is now Germany was a number of separate states such as Wurttemberg, Prussia, Bavaria, etc. whose boundaries changed frequently as a result of war and other causes. The Palantinate was one of these states, and was located along the Rhine River, roughly where the modern German state of Rhineland Phalz is located.

In the 18th and the early 19th century, the term "Palatine" was used in America to describe immigrants from the Palatinate and other adjoining German speaking areas. Finding an American reference to someone being from the Palatinate may not point to a specific place of origin, but rather an approximate region in or near western or southern Germany.

Some of the Palatines that came to North America did not come directly from what is now Germany. They may have been spending time in other countries, including Switzerland. Our ancestor, Wilhelm Stuber (Stover) might be in this category.
