Notes for John LONGSTRETH
John Longstreth had declared his intentions of marriage with Rebecca Taylor, daughter of Peter Taylor, 4 mo. 5, 1764, but her death from small-pox a month later disappointed his hopes. He was married to Jane Minshall by a justice of the peace, for which he was disowned; but his wife "made an acknowledgment of the deviation in regard to marriage, which was accepted." He held a commission from Governor Mifflin, dated June 10, 1793, as Justice of the Peace for the townships of Tredyffrin, Charlestown, East and West Whiteland, Chester County, and he was a man of considerable influence in Phoenixville, where he lived.
