    1. [PACHESTE] Amy SILL, William CALLAHAN
    2. >From Chester Co. court records: On Jan. 5, 1832, William Callahan was indicted for "fornication and bastardy on the body of Amy Sill." Bond was posted by Wm. and by James Callahan, yeoman. He pled not guilty, but was found guilty. He was fined $1, and ordered to pay $20 to Amy, and to contribute 50 cents a week until the child, a girl, was seven years old. Plus a $300 bond to the poorhouse. William may have married Amy soon after this, and may have died the same year. There is an 1832 will of a William Callahan of East Goshen Twp., naming a wife Amy. Can anyone tell me more about this couple? I remember that some people on the list are researching Sills. Do you know of any mention in Quaker records? My interest is finding out about this William and James Callahan. Thank you. Karen Barth
