General Notes: Husband - Edward Gilpin


He was reared to the mercantile branch of his father's business, and as a very young man made voyages to the West Indies, to dispose of flour and other products. On one of these voyages he was captured by a French privateer, carried to Basseterre, Island of Gaudaloupe, French West Indies, and kept a prisoner there for some time.
After the death of his wife, he removed to Philadelphia, where two of his sons had located, and later died there.
