Collection: Brinton Family Collection

Title: Brinton Family Collection

Description: The Brinton Family Collection contains genealogy, estate records, receipts, school workbooks, correspondence, farm records, tax records, bank records, wedding and funeral announcements, invitations, visiting cards, and postcards.

Admin/Biographical History: The Brintons were a prosperous family, owned farms and mills, and participated in other business ventures. They were of English heritage and members of the Quakers, or Society of Friends. In order to escape religious persecution in England, William Brinton purchased 200 acres in Birmingham Twp., Pennsylvania in 1684. His descendants eventually moved further west to eastern Lancaster County.1; Cyrus Brinton (1830-1917), the fourth of six children, was the son of Samuel and Lydia P. Jackson Brinton. In 1813, Samuel purchased 200 acres of land in Christiana (land that was later bounded by the Christiana Machine Shop on the south, Pine St. on the west, Sadsbury Ave. on the north, and Rte. 41 on the east). The land was not ideal for farming, but the property was picturesque and the farm was successful. Cyrus married Rebecca Whitson and they farmed on his father's property for about ten years. At that time they purchased a farm and mill on the road from Cooperville to the Noble Road. The original woolen mill was later turned into a grist mill, then a creamery. Cyrus and Rebecca had five children: Francis, Thomas Luther, William Haslam, Anne Haslam, and Martha Alice.2; Genealogy:3; Thomas Whitson m. Martha Hobson; b. 7 February 1796 b. 10 November 1800; d. 27 November 1864 d. 18 June 1889; (Sadsbury, Chester County) (Sadsbury); They were married at New Salem Meeting, 17 May 1827. Rebecca was one of their eight children.; Cyrus Brinton m.

Hannah Starr; b. 27 September 1760 b. 3 February 1765; d. 1 June 1826 d. 20 April 1836; (Sadsbury); The parents of Thomas Whitson, they were married 31 October 1787.; Francis Hobson m. Ann Johnson; b. 14 February 1768 b. 15 December 1775; d. 1835 (Lancaster County); farmer and shoemaker d. 1852; (New Garden) (New Garden); The parents of Martha Hobson, they were married 14 September 1797.; 1 Garrett, Mary. 1979.
