Revolutionary Soldier (Pa. Archives, Vol. 2, 5th Series).
Buried in the Friends Section which has about 700 unmarked Quaker graves.
Descendant of William Gregg, the Immigrant Quaker who settled near Wilmington, DE and died 1687. William's son, John Gregg, md. Elizabeth Cooke in 1694. John died 1738 in Christiana Hundred, DE.
Samuel Gregg (son of John and Elizabeth) md Ann Robinson of New Castle County DE. Children were Joseph, Betty, Sarah, Hannah, Mary, Samuel, JOHN (1755-1808) and Thomas.
John apparently came to Greene County about 1794, purchasing tracts of land in Greene Twp., 1796 and 1802. He was transferred by certificate to Redstone Monthly Meeting and then to Westland.
John and Orpha are said to be buried in Friends Burying Ground at Westland -- from a 1949 letter from A. L. Moredock, Attorney in Waynesburg, PA, written to P. S. DuPont of Wilmington DE. Mr. DuPont was tracing some members of the Gregg family and the property owned by them around Brandywine Creek. Much of that land had been sold to the DuPonts. Aforementioned letter and many other Gregg papers are preserved at the Hagley Archives near Wilmington, Delaware.
[Note: Most of the early records of this cemetery were lost in a fire. Of the Quaker burials, there are said to be records of only about 150 names and dates. All that remain have been posted.]
