Thomas Livezey (1723/4-1790) married Martha Knowles in 1748 at Abington Monthly
Meeting. He was a miller and expanded the family property along the Wissahicken and
Cresheim Creeks. He and Martha had at least ten children. Sons John (1753-1826) and
Joseph (1764-1841) were in business together, including the mill and real estate
investments. John married Abigail Ridgway (1763-1854), a Quaker minister, and they
had two sons, John and Thomas. Abigail was a charter member of Frankford Monthly
Meeting, but was disowned for joining the Hicksites in 1831. She became a member on
request at Frankford Monthly Meeting in 1844. Thomas married Ann Louise Phillips out
of unity, but acknowledged and remained a member of Green Street Monthly
Meeting.
