From history of Bucks Co., W.W.H. Davis, 1905:
Lawrence Hendricks' wife was Janneke Tyson, daughter of Cornelius Tyson of Germantown, who died in 1716, leaving a widow and two sons, Mathias and Peter: and daughters Barbara, wife of Mathias Cunrad: Jannicke,Alice wife of John Cunrad: Williemptie, wife of Paul Engle and Jannecke wife of Laurentz Hendricks.Paul Engle settled near his brother-in-law, Lawrence Hendricfks. on the Skippack and his tombstone dated 1723, is the oldest in the Skippack Mennonite burying ground. Lawrence Hendricks died in Towamencin township in September 1753, his wife Janneke surviving him. Their children were Peter, Benjamin, Cornelius, Margaret wife of Peter Tyson: Henry, Sedgen or Seytje, wife of Walter Jansen, William, John and Mathias. Benjamin married Katherine Nash, daughter of William Nash. William died in 1776 leaving an only child Jane who married Daniel Sampey.

From the history of Hatfield, provided by Bobby Robertson:
Wallace Derstine Farm. This came from Evan Lewis tract of 493 acres. On January 17, 1748, Richard Walm of Philadelphia, executor of Evan Lewis and Jonathan Lewis, so sold to Lawrence Hendrick of Towamencin Twp., 246 acres. On March 1, 1748, the same conveyed 111 acres to each of his sons. Henry and John Hendricks. John got the northern portion comprising Wallace Derstine and the Fair Grounds and David Cassel residence. Here John Hendricks lived for the rest of his life. It is believed that the Derstine residence was where he lived. Here stood an old log house back from the present house. He bequeathed this farm to his daughter, Eve who had married Frederick George and her descendants. In 1815, Eve, Georgine and Magdalene, her daughter, who had married Frederick Landis sold from her plantation 15 acres to Jacob Swartley. This tract of land passed through quite a few hands before being sold to the Hatfield Driving Association in 1924 and I assume, became the Hatfield race Course. In 1816, Eve, George's widow and her daughter Magdalena, who had married John Landis, sold to two brothers, John Leidy, potter of Franconis Twp., and Jacob Leidy, storekeeper of the same township.
