I am searching for the parents of the POPE siblings of York/Adams County Pennsylvania. Any help would be most appreciated. I descend from Quaker couple SAMUEL POPE AND ELIZABETH STEVENSON with the following records: "SAMUEL POPE, brother of JOHN, was received a member of the Warrington Mo., Mtg., 3 mo., 18, 1751, and on 7 mo. 4 of the same year, SAMUEL POPE, of Tyrone township, York County (now Adams), and Elizabeth Stevenson, of Menallen township, same county, were married at Menallen Friends' meeting house (Warrington Mo. Mtg. Records). At Warrington Mo. Mtg., 10 mo. 8, 1763, a certificate of removal was signed for Samuel Pope, wife Elizabeth and child to New Garden Mo. Mtg., Guilford County, North Carolina. ........... JOHN POPE made his will Sept. 25, 1782, and probated Aug. 25, 1784 (A. p. 281), JOHN POPE leaves his plantation in Tyrone township, where he now lives, under certain conditions to his brother Samuel. JOHN POPE gave a silver watch to NATHANIEL POPE ("my brother Samuel Pope's son"), his sister, SARAH MCCELREVEY" [Mcelravey] (wife of HUGH, who is in the war); her children (JOHN, RICHARD, MARY, HUGH, and WILLIAM MCCELREVEY ") and "JAMES HAMMOND, son of DANIEL HAMMOND, who is married to my sister, Elizabeth." He appoints Archibald McGrew and William Delap, executors. From the will of JOHN POPE, we know that he had a brother SAMUEL with a son named NATHANIEL, a sister SARAH McCelrevey with children, and a sister ELIZABETH, wife of Daniel Hammond with a son named JAMES HAMMOND. He had a cousin named JOHN POPE, and mentions a WILLIAM POPE but doesn't know state the relationship. It is believed that PRISCILLA POPE was also a sister of the above siblings. She was married to HENRY WIERMAN. She attended the wedding of Samuel and Elizabeth Pope. RICHARD POPE was one of a list of persons from Chester county, (PA) who were to have had surveyed to them in 1736, land on the west side of Susquehanna, by leave of the Maryland authorities (Col. Rec., Vol. iv, p. 101-2). Letters of administration on the estate of RICHARD POPE, deceased, Huntington township, Lancaster (now Adams) county, were granted to JOHN POPE in 1746. From records of an Orphans' Court of York county, July 26, 1762, it appears that Richard Pope left a widow, Mary (since married to WILLIAM YOUNG) and three children, for whom Archibald McGrew and John Wilson were appointed guardians. The children were: 1. WILLIAM, b. Sept. 16, 1743; apprenticed Sept. 2, 1762, to HENRY WIERMAN, tanner and currier, of Huntington until he came of age. 2. JOHN, b. Oct. 13, 1744. 3. SARAH, b. June 1, 1746; apprenticed Sept. 1, 1762, to Robert Scott, yeoman, of Strabane township, until she is 18 years of age. SOURCE: From a portion of an article by Albert Cook Myers, Swarthmore College, PA., "Notes and Queries" 1970. SAUMEL POPE held the original deed for a tract of land in Cumberland Co., PA which is now part of "Pine Grove State Park" formerly PINE GROVE FURNACE. JOHN POPE also owned land adjoining "Pine Grove Furnace." SAMUEL and ELIZABETH POPE had four children named, Mary, Nathaniel, Priscilla and Dinah. 1809, 4, 29 Samuel Pope rocf Mt.
