Thank you so much! I didn't know whether or not Mr. Brink had anything to do with Richard Thomas, the book just says the names of people who applied for tavern licenses from Warrington Township. So they were both from Warrington, and both just happened to apply. OK, works for me. http://books.google.co<http://books.google.com/books?vid=OCLC01727483&id=bwtNS1C8ljwC&pg=PA836&lpg=PA836&dq=%2522richard+thomas%2522+bucks> m/books?vid=OCLC01727483&id=bwtN<http://books.google.com/books?vid=OCLC01727483&id=bwtNS1C8ljwC&pg=PA836&lpg=PA836&dq=%2522richard+thomas%2522+bucks> S1C8ljwC&pg=PA836&lpg=PA836&dq=%22<http://books.google.com/books?vid=OCLC01727483&id=bwtNS1C8ljwC&pg=PA836&lpg=PA836&dq=%2522richard+thomas%2522+bucks> richard+thomas%22+bucks<http://books.google.com/books?vid=OCLC01727483&id=bwtNS1C8ljwC&pg=PA836&lpg=PA836&dq=%2522richard+thomas%2522+bucks> is the link to the Google book - it's the Davis book - pg. 836. I have heard of those taverns, too, btw. Now all I have to do is find out where he lived. :) It's really hard to find the right Thomas link as it is - this is the first little clue we've had outside of his son's marriage license. Lynn
