  • Notes 
    • Emigrated to American only a few decades after the Plymouth Colony was established, on William Penn's ship, the Submission, sailing from Liverpool. Arrived 2 Nov 1682 in Maryland. Phineas was a close friend and confidant of William Penn and became a wealthy and successful businessman in his own right. Penn had been granted 45,000 acres of land by Charles II in exchange for a dept owed by WP's father, and Admiral in the Navy. His wife's father also bought a large acreage, and most the of combined land holdings descended to Israel.


      May have helped our ancestor Solomon Allred get started in the New World. Was a devout Quaker like his father, Ralph.



      From the book "Colonial and Revolutionary Families of Pennsylvania" by John W. Jordan, p 276 ff, also cited in the Griffin book on the Allred family in America.
