Emigrants to Penn - Ed. by Michael Tepper, Chapter 3 pg 25.

 

From Various Internet Sources:

4 Sept. 1683 John Hough of Hough, Wilmslow Parrish, Nantwich Hundred, Cheshire, England. With Hannah Rossell His wife, and John Hough Jr. Sailed on 60 ton "FRIENDSHIP" in Liverpool, across the Mercy River from their home in Hough, About 4 Sept. 1683.

 

21 NOV. 1683, Arrived Philadelphia, they were apparently a family of some substance, since they paid for the passage of five other persons who indentured themselves to John Hough for four years as payment. These indenturees or " Servants " were Thomas Hough, Nathaniel Watmough, George and Isabella Gleave and their son George Gleave Jr. ( until he is 21 ).

 

John settled in Middletown Twp. and Newton Twp. Bucks Co., Pa. The Gleaves and Thomas Hough, after their release, settled across the Delaware River from Bucks Co., Pa. In Burlington Co., New Jersey.

 

John Hough also came prepared to do business. On arrival John Hough paid duty of 16 Shillings, 31/4 Pence on 1 CWT and 50 Pounds Woolen Cloth, 140 Ells Linen, 1 Doz Felts, 11/2 Dozen Woolen Stockings For men, 1 Dozen of the same for children, 4 Coverlets, Wool and hair, 4 Casks, 1 Bundle, 1/2 CWT Gunpowder, 1/4 CWT Brass, 28 Pounds new shoes, 1/4 CWT Haberdashery, 1 chest window glass, 5 CWT Cheese, 3/4 BBL of butter, 1/2 QTR wheat, 4 CWT wrought iron, 1CWT flour, 2 saddles, 2 iron pots, 2BBLS salt.

 

On the day of arrival, John Hough was granted a Warrant for 125 acres to be laid out in Chester Co., Pa., but instead, settled in Middletown Twp. Bucks Co., Pa.

 

ENCYCLOPEDIA OF AMERICAN QUAKER GENEALOGY, VOL. 2:

John HOUGH and his wife Hannah were members of the Falls Monthly Meeting of the Quakers in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. The Falls meeting was organized in 1683. On page 961 of the Encyclopedia, John and Hannah are recorded along with the birth dates of four of their children: Daniel born 4-14-1693; Isaac born 12-28-1694/5; Sarah born 4-31-1701; Joseph born 1-14-1703.

 

An early entry was reported (I have not verified – Fred) for 1684, which may correspond with his arrival in the new land, and may reflect his exuberance:

 

The Minutes read " FEBRUARY 4, 1684, HE WAS "DEALT WITH" FOR FIGHTING AND DRINKING INORDINATELY." He attended several marriages.

 

JOHN HOUGH of MIDDLETOWN died in JANUARY 1732, and was buried there, intestate, (without a will) and the court granted administration of the estate to son, John Hough Jr., (YE YOUNGER) on JANUARY 20, 1732. his return for the estate (CASE #55) on JUNE 17, 1736, shows a net value of over 244 Pounds. (SEE. O.C. AL: 68 FOR DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS, AND FOR THE MARRIED NAMES OF THE DAUGHTERS).

 

Court Records:

The "Records of the Courts of Quarter Sessions and Common Pleas of Bucks County Pennsylvania 1684-1700", Colonial Society of Pennsylvania, 1943: Book has 14 entries involving John Hough. They are matters such as jury service, road inspections, and land transactions.

Misc. Notes

Daniel Hough Owned land between Crum Creek and Darbvy Creek, next to Newton Twp., Bucks Co., PA.

 

In 1736 Daniel Hough was alive and well in Middletown at age 43, when his brother John Hough Fr. refused to give him any of his father's estate since he "had been advanced by his father, the said decedent, in his lifetime in estate by settlement amounting to upwards of seventy pounds, exceeding the share of any of the other children".

 

Daniel Hough may, as several traditions have it all without a shred of proof "Gone off in a Huff" to New Jersey (Across the Delaware River) and changed his name to Huff. Where he stayed with the families of Thomas Hough a blood relative, and George Gleave (Both were indentured to his father for passage to the Colonies.) Furthermore, later members of this family did reside for a spell in Burlington and Hunterdon Co., NJ

Misc. Notes

There are several references to a Daniel HUFF in the Surry County, NC, Court Minutes (Part of Surry County became Stokes County in 1789 - - it was "Stokes" when he died.) However I now believe most of these refer to this Daniel's son, Daniel III. (NEED to review in context of living next door to Robert Walker and his brother David. See notes with Robert!)

 

One that MAY apply: On 16 August 1786 we find "Ordered… Daniel HUFF be exempt from paying Poll Tax for future." This was also common practice, when someone reached a certain age. 

 

I had a tough time separating Daniel II from Daniel III in many records. Daniel III (who is not our ancestor) married Elizabeth Christie, and he then proceeded to name his children after his siblings, resulting in two "Daniel Huff" families with lists of children with identical names! Once sorted out, it became clear that the "Daniel Huff" who is well documented in the Quaker minutes for Deep River and Deep Creek Monthly Meetings is Daniel III.

 

Therefore, to date, I have found few references to ancestor Daniel II.
