  • Notes 
    • Robert Hawley, who was born on the Brandywine River in Chester County, Pa., was of English ancestry. Being a strict adherent to the Quaker doctrines he did not participate in the Revolutionary War, but tradition tells us that Robert Hawley was warned to flee from his home and, shortly after, the battle of Brandywine was fought upon his premises. He learned the tanner's trade. In 1800 he settled in Lycoming, Pa., with a colony of Quakers at Pennsdale, near Muncy, where he conducted a tannery. He subsequently operated a tannery in Hughesville, but at the time of his death resided at Muncy. He and his wife, Patience, both lived to an advanced age and lie buried in the Friend's Burying-ground at Pennsdale. They reared the following children: Robert; Gideon; Enos; Ann (Haynes); Hannah (Whitaker); and Mary (Yearsley). - Book of Biographies of the Seventeenth Congressional District Published by Biographical Publishing Company of Chicago, Ill. and Buffalo, NY (1899)
