Hi Jim, John Hart and Capt. John Rush were both English and came into PA in Sept. or Oct., 1682. You will find John Hart's permission to leave in the Witney, Oxfordshire, England Quaker Meeting Minutes for 1682. Also, you can find both men mentioned in early PA records, e.g. John Hart was an Assemblyman and and the Quakers in and around Byberry Township met in his home and this is in the early PA Quaker records. Also, John Hart was one of the twelve Quakers appointed to decide an issue about Keith after Keith had made public comments about the Quakers and some of their top officials in PA. It is also easy to find information on Capt. John Rush because of his relationship to the signer, Dr. Benjamin Rush. John H.
