To this peti- tion is signed the name of Thomas Ross,, ancestor of the Rosses of this county. Charles Smith, of Pineville, a descendant of Robert Smith, of Buckingham, was the first person to burn lime with hard coal. His experience in burning lime goes back to 1796, and he was engaged in it more or less all his life. His first attempt, and the first in the county, was in 1826 when he used coal on the top of the kiln, and continued it until 1835. The method of arching the kiln, and arranging th...e wood and coal so as to burn lime to the best advantage, was on the Common Pleas bench, Philadelphia, and also a member of the State Senate. Mrs. Paxson was a real "Daughter of the Revolution," and a few years ago the National Society presented her a gold souvenir. 12 In 1886 the Bucks County Historical Society erected a monument near the corner of the Wrightstown graveyard to mark the starting point of the ** Walking Purchase/* 1737. Mprtha Chapman gave the ground, and tlte monument stands on the southeast corner of the road from Penn's Park makes with the Durham road.
