Petition Of The Inhabitants Of Hanover Township Against The Division Of The Said Township, February Sessions, 1769

Taken From Egles Notes and Queries - Historical and Genealogical Chiefly Relating To Interior Pennsylvania  Edited by William Henry Egle, M.D. M. A., 1890 - First Edition - Vol. 1, Pages 85-86

{In connection with the tax list of "East End of Hanover township 1769" recently published (N. & Q. xii), we present the following petition to the court at Lancaster protesting against the division of the township. The signatures are originals, and although it confirms a statement repeatedly made that our Scotch-Irish ancestors, with scarcely an exception, were able to read and write - we cannot say much for their orthography, as will be seen, quite a number did not know how to spell their names. Adam Reed, Esq., in affixing his signature adds: "As I don't Expect to be at next Court, I doe not agree to any division of said township."}

To the Honorable Court of Common Pleas, to meet at Lancaster the seventh February 1769:

GREETINGS: Whereas it has been reported that a Plan in now intended in order to have Hanover Township divided, in which the undernamed Persons do reside, which, if done, must necessarily prove to the Disadvantage and dissatisfaction of the Inhabitants thereof, and Consequently be attended with fatal Consequences.

We therefore beseech your Honors to put a stop to such proceedings and we will forever pray as in duty bound.
