Page 370 - Birthdates for children of Philip, Jr. & Mary Hoopes start
out Old Style (i.e., Julian calendar).
- Jane’s birthdate should be written 11-199-1730/31 (i.e., she was born
in February)
- Hannah Swayne who m. David Yarnall @ Lonndon Grove MM was the daughter
of Edward Swayne of Marlborough.
- Abraham’s death date is INCORRECT. As shhown, it has him dying before
his children were born! He died 1767 according to Kennett MM records
extracted by Gilbert Cope.
- John Griffith (who m. Jane) was son of BBenoni Griffith.
Vincent and Grace ( Yarnall ) Bonsall moved to Wilmington, DE. Their
son, Philip Bonsall, was twice married, per Chester MM records; first to
Catharine Harrison 1772-6m-10d and second to Hannah Ogden 1790-5m-6d.
Page 371 - Sarah ( who m. Samuel Yarnall), Philip, and David, children
of David and Hannah (Swayne) Yarnall, probably moved to Wayne Co., OH.
Dates, names, and other data in Ohio records support this.
- Abraham (who m. Elizabeth James, daughteer of Samuel James) is
called the 2nd child of Philip 2nd in Newark Quaker records.
- Uriah died prior to 1794. He married Marrtha Edmonson 1786. Their
daughter, Elizabeth Y., b -30-1787, m. Jonathan Balderston.
[ “Jonathan Balderston of Baltimore and Miss Elizabeth Yarnall of Easton,
Talbot Co. [Md.] were married at Friends Meeting House on Thursday [21st?]
inst. “ -- (from Baltimore Federal Gazette). This comes from Marriages & Deaths from
Baltimore Newspapers 1796-1810. Robert Barnes. 1978. Publ. Gen. Publ. Co., Inc.,

- Ezekiel was born 1762, not 1763.
- Samuel died 1807, not 1846. . “Samuel Yaarnell member of Society of
Friends of Talbot Co. died last Friday” appeared in the15 Sept. 1807 issue of
the Baltimore Evening Post, as extracted from “Marriages & Deaths from Baltimore
Newspapers 1796-1810” by Robert Barnes. 1978 Gen. Publ. Co., Inc., Baltimore.”
Samuel and Sarah had 7 girls, 4 of whom d. infancy. He IS NOT
the Samuel who married Ruth Battman.
Elizabeth, last child of Abraham and Elizabeth, m. Jesse Evans
4-12-1806 at Duck Creek MM.
I believe there is also a “confusion of Philips” in the write-up for Dorothy
and Ephraim Yarnall, according to court records.
Page 372 - Samuel who married Ruth Battman was NOT son of Abraham and
Elizabeth. Further, census records indicate Samuel and Ruth had 10 children.
