[Will of Elizabeth Peiursol, widow of Jeremiah of Honeybrook twp, Cheste County, 24 January 1814]
Bathsheba Peirsoll widow of Jeremiah late of West Natmeal, and Mordecai Peirsoll the eldest son of Peter Peirsoll.
[Chester County, Orphans court, 1 April 1774]
To daughters Bathsheba and Rebecca all personal estate... To sons Richard and Mordecai all real estate...
Will of Peter Peirsol of Honeybrook twp, Chester County, 23 January 1807]
The unusual names of Goheen and Mordecai are associated even in unusual way. These names again occur mid 1800's in Shamokin, Northumberland County. Mordecai Lewis Goheen known as Lewis except on tombstone where entire name occurs. Mordecai Lewis Goheen from Pottsville, Schyulkill County, moves to Shamokin, Northumberland. This family I have been unable to find the parents. I believe that Lane was the father and needs to be proved.
