Notes

Note N150JONATHAN WYNN, grandson of Jonathan Wynne of Blockley, bought in 1774 the farm known as Marsh Farm, located along the Conestoga pike, in East Nantmel township, Chester county, PA., consisting of 188 acres and 144 rods. He made the purchase of Thomas Penn, the son, and John Penn, the grandson, of William Penn, the founder of the Colony. The farmhouse was partly of stone and partly of wood; it sets on an elevation above the road, and in the side of a hill; a considerable portion of the farm was lowland and swampy, but Mr. Wynne cut a large ditch through this part, draining into Brandywine Creek, the waters of which flow past the battlefield of the famous Revolutionary battle of Brandywine. He also built a stone wall about the house, which still remains. He married Miss Letitia Hewitt. He had quite a large family, comprising the following children: Mary, Rachel, Ann, Jennie, Susan, Lettie, John and Jonathan. Of these, Lettie and Jonathan Died during their minority. Rachel Wynn married Hugh Huston, and they shortly after wards moved to the neighborhood of Circleville, Ohio. Their children were Eliza Ann, Susan, Mary Jane, Franklin and Martin Luther. We have no trace of these children, except for Eliza Ann, who married a Mr. Austen and moved to Belton, Texas, where her mother joined her after the death of her husband, Mr. Huston. Rachel died in 1866, and lies buried in the cemetery at Belton. All her children are dead at this date. Mrs. Austen had seven children: Henry, Franklin, Martin Luther, George N., Charles H., Hugh and William T., all of whom are living in Texas.

Mrs. Estella Williams of Fort Worth, Texas, is a daughter of Mary Jane Huston Hull, who was the daughter of Rachel Wynne and Hugh Huston. Mary, another daughter of Mary Jane, was married and lived in Urbana, Ill. She is now dead, but left issue.
