Their animosity was generally directed towards tax collectors.At his death on 18 July 1799, he was one of the largest land owners in Bucks County with over 900 acres. According to his Will, his land was divided between his six sons. He was buried in the Presbyterian Graveyard, Newtown, Bucks County, PA.
