An edit to the newspaper article above: The text reads "It is unlikely the Thompson boys were contemplating a state park when they upstaked along the Neshaminy and moved into the shade of Bowman's Hill;....nor when one wed the Widow Neely and kept the mill running." The last part of the sentence refers to Robert Thompson's marriage in 1748 to the widow of the owner of the Thompson-Neely Farmstead and Mill at that time. The widow that Thompson wed was Hannah Delaplaine Simpson, not Widow Neely; the text should have read Widow Simpson.
