In the "Bulletin of the Historical Society of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania" Volume 18, Fall 1971 - Spring 1973, pages 52 through 64 is an article "Early History of the Upper Dublin Association" by Elwood C. Parry, Jr. the full title of the Association was "The Upper Dublin Association for the Recovery of Stolen Horses, Dentention of Horse-Thieves and obtaining other Stolen Property" The Assoc. was evidently a combination insurance group, and vigilante society, in the absence of any constabulary. The founders met at "The Sign of the Three Tuns" in 1828. The author didn't give any attributions, but quoted freely from the minutes. No footnotes. The docent couldn't find the directories or the minutes of the members over the years, which the MHS " has somewhere, but misfiled". I want to see if my gr grandfather was a member, and when. The society had affiliations with other similar associations in Philadelphia, even having conventions together. Does anyone have any knowledge of this society? My note: The corner location of "The Sign of the Three Tuns" was originally called "Lewisville". The author didn't say when the name was changed. Ruth in GA
