Joseph Haines
married Dorothy sometime before the birth of their first child, William, which
occurred on 3rd day of the 1st month, 1705, according to the records of the Nottingham Monthly
Meeting in Chester County, Pennsylvania US11.
Joseph Haines was called a cordwinder of Nottingham, Burlington County, West
New Jersey when he purchased a parcel of 200 acres of land from Daniel Hall, a
yeoman of Mansfield Township, Burlington County, West New Jersey for the sum of
₤100 on November 8, 1707 DA18.
This deed was witnessed by Richard French, Abraham, and Thomas Scattergood DA18. Joseph Haines was granted a certificate from the Burlington
Monthly Meeting to the Chesterfield Monthly Meeting on the 1st day of the 11th
month, 1704 which stated US11:

Said Meeting by Thomas Scattergood
The
records of the Burlington and Rancocas Monthly Meeting state that on the 1st day of the 12th
month, 1713/14, Joseph Haines requested a certificate for himself and his wife,
so the friends appointed Matthew Champion and Isaac Gibbs “to make Enquirey
into Matters Nessassary in that Relation” US11.
The following month (the 1st day
of the 1st month, 1713/14) regarding the inquiry “into the clearness [this
word likely indicates “clearance”] of Joseph Haines”, it was reported that
there was “some obstruction by Reason of Some Harsh Words that Has past by the
Said Joseph Haines for which this Meeting apoints Thomas Scattergood to Make
Enquirey further” US11. After
another month (on the 5th day
of the 2nd month, 1714), details regarding the conversation which had
“harsh words” emerged US11.
Allegedly, this conversation was between Joseph Haines and John Buffin, which
“caused Some Hindrance but said Haines hath Lately Informed… [Isaac] Gibbs that
He is Sorry for itt which Acknowledgements the Meeting accepts & Orders ye Cleark to Draw a Certificate & Sign on behalf of ye Meeting” US11.
Joseph
Haines, a yeoman of Nottingham Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania, married
Elizabeth Thomas, the daughter of James Thomas, a farmer of Whiteland Township,
Chester County, on the 1st day
of the 1st month, 1721/2 at Nottingham, Chester County in a ceremony

Haines, John Thomas, Elizabeth Lewling, Jacob Haines, Ruth Haines, Miriam
Haines, Solomon Haines, Thomas Browne, James Wright, Sarah Baels, Wm Baels, Henry Reynolds, John Bales. Mary Browne, Mary Harrold,
and many others US11. With Elizabeth,
Joseph was the father of thirteen additional children US11.

Pennsylvania mentioned that Joseph Haines purchased a parcel of two hundred
acres of land from Arthur Barret in May 1739 but did not state the township CH20. It did state that Joseph was of West Nottingham, but this does
not guarantee that the parcel was also in West Nottingham. Joseph Haines of
West Nottingham Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania purchased a parcel of one

Pipe Creek in Frederick County, Maryland from Walter and Anne Moor (or Moore)

of Joseph Haines (deceased) and Elizabeth Haines, married Joseph England of
East Nottingham, Chester County, the son of Samuel and Sarah England, on the 15th day of the 1st
month, 1767 at East Nottingham, Chester County US11. The records of the Nottingham Monthly Meeting in Chester
County, Pennsylvania state that Deborah England, the wife of Joseph England,
died at age forty-four on the 2nd day

Haines (deceased) and Elizabeth Haines, married Esther Kirk, the daughter of
Timothy Kirk of East Nottingham, Chester County in the 6th day of the 2nd
month, 1766 at East Nottingham US11.
The West Nottingham Monthly Meeting in Chester County, Pennsylvania recorded
that Job and Esther Haines were the parents of eleven children, but three of
these birth records (for Jacob, Isaac, and Joseph Haines) were written in
pencil and were clearly not contemporary with the other birth records as they
were interlined amongst the original list of children US11. These eleven children were Jacob, born “1767-9”-3” (probably
the 3rd day of the 9th
month, 1767), Timothy, born on the 15th day
of the 11th month, 1768, Isaac, born in 1770, Reuben, born on the 17th day of the 5th

Job Haines was mentioned in the will of his father,
Joseph Haines, which was dated October 27, 1762, at which time he was younger
than twenty-one years of age PE24. The
records of the Nottingham Monthly Meeting state that Esther Haines, the wife of
Job Haines, died on the 1st day
of the 4th month, 1803 US11. An
additional record (which was written in pencil did not appear to be contemporary
with the remaining records regarding Haines family members) stated that Job
Haines died at age sixty-eight years, one month, and nine days on the 4th day of the 10th
month in 1812 US11.
Joseph
Haines of West Nottingham, Chester County, Pennsylvania wrote his will on
October 27, 1762 which was proved in Chester County on October 7, 1763 and

The records of the
Nottingham Monthly Meeting in Chester County, Pennsylvania state that Elisabeth
Haines, the widow of Joseph Haines, died at about age one hundred on the 24th day of the 11th
month in 1796 and was buried at the Brick Meeting House graveyard US11.
Dorothy was
born about the year 1680, according to her age at the time of her death US11. She was the mother of seven children whose births were
recorded in Chester County, Pennsylvania US11.
William
Haines, the son of Joseph and Dorothy Haines, was born on the 3rd day of the 1st
month, 1705, according to the records of the Nottingham Monthly Meeting in
Chester County, Pennsylvania US11.
The records of the Nottingham Monthly Meeting and the New Garden Monthly
Meeting, both in Chester County, Pennsylvania state that William Haines, the
son of Joseph and Dorothy Haines, died on the 5th day of the 1st
month in 1716 US11.
Sarah
Haines, the daughter of Joseph and Dorothy Haines, was born on the 24th day of the 6th
month, 1706, according to the records of the Nottingham Monthly Meeting in

Miriam
Haines, the daughter of Joseph and Dorothy Haines, was born on the 24th day of the 7th
month, 1711, according to the records of the Nottingham Monthly Meeting in
Chester County, Pennsylvania US11.
Miriam Haines of New Garden Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania married
Robert Halliday of New Garden, the son of William Halliday, on the 3rd day of the 4th
month, 1730 at Nottingham, Chester County US11.
While a death record for Lydia Halliday has not been located, she likely died
in or about October or November 1739. This month and year are inferred from a
written statement made by Robert which indicated that less than four months
after the death of his wife, he wished to remarry to another individual US11. On the 23rd day
of the 12th month, 1739/40, Robert Halliday requested a certificate from
the New Garden Monthly Meeting to the Newark Monthly Meeting so he could marry
Mabel Anderson US11. The following month
(the 29th day of the 1st
month, 1740), the friends who had been appointed to inquire into the matter of
the intended marriage between Robert Halliday and Mabel Anderson stated that
they had not prepared a certificate US11:
by
reason of some obsticlle
in ye way, which ye sd Robert acknowledges & Condemns under his hand… a Coppy of sd paper is as followeth
Whereas
I was too forward & hasty in makeing shuite to a young women after ye Death of my wife, having made some proceedings that way in Less
then four months which I am now senceable was wrong as witness my hand Robert Halliday
Solomon
Haines, the son of Joseph and Dorothy Haines, was born on the 22nd day of the 8th
month, 1713, according to the records of the Nottingham Monthly Meeting in
Chester County, Pennsylvania US11.
The records of the Nottingham Monthly Meeting and the New Garden Monthly
Meeting, both in Chester County, Pennsylvania state that Solomon Haines, the
son of Joseph and Dorothy Haines, died on the 16th day of the 9th
month in 1726 US11.
Patience
Haines, the daughter of Joseph and Dorothy Haines, was born on the 24th day of the 11th
month, 1715, according to the records of the Nottingham Monthly Meeting in
Chester County, Pennsylvania US11.
Patience Haines, the daughter of Joseph Haines of West Nottingham, Chester
County, Pennsylvania, married Patrick Miller, the son of Gyen Miller of
Kennett, Chester County, on November 5, 1735 in East Nottingham, Chester
County, Pennsylvania US11.
Patience died sometime prior to July 22, 1751, which is the date that Patrick
Miller of Haverford in Chester County, Pennsylvania wrote his will which named
his wife, Anne Miller, and his children, Joseph, Ruth, Mary, Patience,
Susannah, and Anne Miller PE24.
Joseph Haines wrote a petition to the Justices of the Chester County Orphan’s Court
on behalf of his grandchildren, Mary and Patience, who were the children of
Patrick Miller, on December 17, 1751 CH21.
This petition stated that Patrick Miller “Some Time ago died leaving a
Considerable estate” and requested that the court appoint guardians for
Patrick’s two children CH21.
Dorothy
Haines, the daughter of Joseph and Dorothy Haines, was born on the 24th day of the 11th
month, 1718, according to the records of the Nottingham Monthly Meeting in
Chester County, Pennsylvania US11.
The records of the New Garden Monthly Meeting in Chester County, Pennsylvania
state that Dorithy Hains, the daughter of Joseph Hains, died on the 5th day of the 1st
month in 1718/19 US11. Note that her
birthdate is nearly identical to the birthdate of her sister, Patience, and her
death date is nearly identical to the death date of her brother, William, which
indicates that there may be an error in some part of the birth and death dates
for Patience, William, and/or Dorothy. Dorothy’s death probably did not occur
in 1719 because a daughter of Joseph Haines named Dorothy was alive in 1736 and
in 1762; it seems unlikely that this Dorothy would have been a daughter of
Joseph and Elisabeth (his second wife) unless she was their first child whose
birth was not recorded with their other children. Dorothy Haines may have
married an individual with the surname “Beeson”. The records of the East
Nottingham Monthly Meeting which was held on the 21st day of the 12th
month, 1735/6 state that Dorothy Haines, the daughter of Joseph Haines, “hath
been guilty of having a base=begotten Child this meeting therefore appoints
Mary White and Susannah Brown to accompany the men friends in order to speak
with her concerning the same” US11.
The minutes of a subsequent monthly meeting in East Nottingham which was held
on the 17th day of the 2nd
month, 1736 state “Dorothy Haines (alias Beeson) gave a paper to this meeting
Condemning her actions so as to stop Testimony going against her, the which
John White is appointed to Read in a Publick Meeting at E. Nottingham &
John Everit to Do the like in a first day meeting at West Nottingham and give
an acct thereof to the next Moly meeting”
US11. Dorothy Beeson was mentioned in the will of her father, Joseph
Haines, which was dated October 27, 1762 PE24.
The
records of the Nottingham Monthly Meeting in Chester County, Pennsylvania state
that Dorothy Haines, the wife of Joseph Haines, died at age thirty-nine on the
7th day of the 1st
month, 1719 US11.
