Frederick B. SMITH was born 1838-1839, and seems to be the fellow listed as mustered in 9-18-61 in Philadelphia, aged 22. He is in the 1860 census in NY in Brooklyn with his wife and inlaws, but his origins are Philadelphia, and his wife and in-laws are in Philadelphia in 1870. Maybe his family REPORTED HIM in New York in 1860? Or maybe he was in NY but mustered in in Philadelphia? What I'm interested in is any death announement, which may have taken place on September 27, 1862 - though I have not yet ascertained that this is the same Frederick B. Smith. How many were there in Philadelphia with that name, who are never again seen by 1870? So the "odds" are with me. Anything, guys 'n' gals? Vince

Now looking for Frederick Burnett SMITH born 1838-1839, in the 1850 census. Anyone out there that can see him? He MAY have died in 1862 - I'm guessing a military death? Hmmm. Could have been in NY still... Thanks, Vince Summers

I found out the husband WAS Frederic Burnett SMITH, and the family are in NY in 1860. Mom, Sophia CURE was listed as CINE, and that was how I found them just now! Hip, Hip, HOORAY!

OK. Thanks for the clarification. If I learn anything on a Chester County site that fits, I will be sure to post. If I am not mistaken, Delaware County was created in 1789 from Chester County, and your article is dated 1797, so your point is well taken on a possible Chester County location rather than one in Delaware County.

Haunted Pennsylvania on Googlebooks says that Abraham Streeper and his wife bought the inn from Anthony Tunis in 1776 - there are some wild stories about it. But it doesn't say who owned it after the Streepers. Liane

I travel Rte 30 or Lancaster Avenue, which I believe was at one time called the Lancaster Turnpike, all of the time. I work in the area. I will see in my travels during the week, if I can locate a marker, or estimate, on Rte 30, as there are a couple of stone markers along Rte 30 today. I will be passing through the Merion area early this coming week. Maybe I can also find something out about the Benjamin Tunis Inn. The Lower Merion Historical Society, may also be a good resource to help. Dave Ward In a message dated 9/20/2009 1:27:41 P.M.
