  Marriage Notes:

"James Logan, William Penn's secretary, writing

to a friend, 4th of March 1706 says: 'Doct.

Moore with his wife and son, after nine weeks

spent here, are returned home today with their

son Joseph. Tomorrow they take Caleb Pusey's in

their way, who marries both his daughters

together, the eldest to John Smith of New

England; the other to George Painter, at which

marriages many more of us are to be present."

On March 5, 1706, there was a joint wedding

celebration and the two daughters were soon

installed as mistresses in homes of their own.

John Smith married the elder sister, Ann Pusey

and they took up a tract of land in Marlborough.

Married: 27 MAR 1681 in Devonshire Meeting House,
Note:

In the book "London Grove Meeting 200th Anniversary 1714-1914" it is recorded on page 101: "The Friends' records in London show that Caleb Pizey (as it is written in the record) son of William Pizey of Lamborn in the county of Berks, and Ann Worley, widow, daughter of Henry Stone, were married 3rd Mo. 27th, 1681, at Devonshire Meeting House. Henry Worley, husband of Ann, had died of a fever 12th Mo. 14, 1674, leaving sons Francis and Henry, who came with their mother and step-father to Pennsylvania."

Caleb and Ann Pusey had no son to pass on the

name of Pusey; the large families who bear that

name are descended, in the main, from two

nephews (Caleb and William) who were trained by him to become

millers and who with their children and

grandchildren to remote generations have planted

grist and saw-mills on the streams of Delaware

and Chester County until the name "Pusey's Mill"

has become the synonym of this kind of industry.

As Caleb Pusey stood by the gate at his Upland,

Pennsylvania home and chatted with Penn in 1701,
two daughters, aged seventeen and

twelve,respectively may have stood beside him,

and the family group was completed when the

mother came to the doorway and asked Penn to

alight and share their mid-day meal then in

preparation.

These two daughters later became the brides of

young Quaker farmers.young Quaker farmers.
