(Benjamin West s Family. has succeeded in gathering about ...)
Benjamin West s Family. has succeeded in gathering about the narrative of West slife more mythical incidents than any book purporting to be historical published during the nineteenth century. In the instance of the West mily the usual traditionary three brothers did come to A merica. William, Thomas and John West, sons of Thomas and BacheP (G ilpin) West, emigrated from England to Pennsylvaniay soon after its settlement, and located in Chester County. They were birthright members of the Society of Friends, but John, thether of Benjamin, the brother in whom we are interested, came to this country without a certificate of transfer which shows that he waa not in good standing with Friends when he left England. William West married Deborah Coppock and died, in 1720, without issue. Thomas West married Mary Dean and had eight children, with whom he removed, in 1736, to what is now Wilmington, in the State of Delaware, where he died, in 1748, leaving many descendants. John West, bom in 1690, arrived in Pennsylvania circa 1716, leaving a wife in England, who soon after gave birth to a soui named for his grandfather, Thomas, and died in childbed. As we have noted, John West was not a Quaker when he settled in Pennsylvania, as he is represented to have been by Ghdt and his followers, and he did not become a member of that sect until late in life. He married, in Chester County, Barah, daughter of Thomas Pearson who came from England with William Penn. She, too, was a birthright member of the Society of Friends, but for some indiscretions, prejudicial to the well-being of Friends, was disowned, or read out of meeting, so Buell s Pond Jcne$ will doab Uesi hold in the present century the oniqae position th t Galts TF eit held in the last centary.
