History of Bradford County 1770 - 1878
The Reverend Mr. David Craft
Pike Township
"Thomas Brink, a son of Nicholas Brink, of Walpack, Sussex Co., N. J., came into the settlement in 1797. Nicholas Brink came to the Wyoming valley at an early day, but the Pennamite troubles, and the disasters suffered by the great ice-flood of 1784, induced him to remove, and he went to Owego, N. Y., where he retrieved his misfortunes. Thomas lived on the M. Hollenback place, afterwards owned by G. W. Rose. Daniel and Benajah Bennett, from Connecticut, had previously made a possession and built a log house, but had done scarcely anything in the way of a clearing. He married a Marsh, in New Jersey. He and his brothers, William and James, were soldiers of the revolution."
