555  WILLIAM HAMILTON SWAYNE (8), born 9.18.1886, son of 342
William Hamilton Swayne & Ella M. Crittenden of near Fairville, Pennsbury
Twp, Chester Co., Pa., married 1.28.1915 Mabel K. Hobson.  William farmed
the 130 acres which had been his father's, but soon disposed of more than
half, by these three deeds:  20 Dec. 1916 William H. Swayne Jr & wife Mabel
H. of Pennsbury Twp deeded for $9570.20 to Philip F. DuPont 47 and 851/1000
acres there on Wilmington Road by Jacob M. Swayne and Philip F. DuPont and
William H. Swayne, part of that received from Jacob M. Swayne & wife Apr. 7,
1913 by William H. Swayne who died intestate Sep. 24, 1914 leaving three
children and the other two Oct. 9, 1914 conveyed their interest to brother
William H. Swayne Jr.  But two children of these three have been found else-
where.  Certainly the only grantors who conveyed their interest as just
above stated were William's sister Mary Heyl, her husband and Eleanor Swayne,
who is supposed to have been William's mother, who was still living.  15
Nov. 1919 the same pair deeded for $1192 five acres next land to be conveyed
to Selborne Farms Inc., received as above.  This says William died intestate
Sep. 24, 1913, widower.  His obituary and the family say he died 1914 as in
the deed next above.  If it was true he was a widower, then the Eleanor
Swayne mentioned just above must have been daughter rather than widow.  15
Nov. 1919 the same pair deeded for $6058 to Selborne Farms Inc. 26 acres
there received by William H. Swayne Jr as next above.  This too makes the
error of saying William H. Sr died 1913.  In 1948 Mabel was postmaster at
Mendenhall.  Names and births of these four children are from uncle 343
