43. Elizabeth Dungan, 10, daughter of Thomas and Esther (Evans) Dungan, b. Jan. 11, 1727/8. She was a witness 1753, to the marriage of Robert Tomkins to Ann Longstreth, and was then single. 

44. Thomas Dungan, 10, son of Thomas and Esther (Evans) Dungan, b. Jan. 31, 1729/30. m. circa June 1755, Sarah Hufty (also spelled Haffty). 

July 1755, Sarah Dungan late Haffty, was suspended from the Southampton Baptist Church "for marrying without first advising with the Church and having the approbation of the same according to our agreement of Jan. 1747/8." Sept. 20, 1755, she was reinstated. 

Apr. 4, 1761, Thomas Dungan, of Warminster, gave a bond to Richard Treat, of Abington, for £400, and gave as security 100 acres, the boundaries of which are described as" taken from a deed of John Hart to Thomas Dungan, deceased, father to Thomas Dungan above named, which deed was dated March 6, 1725/6. (26, Book 10 C, Vol. 3, page 266). 

Jan. 29, 1763, Thomas Dungan, of Warminster, Cooper, gave a bond to John Hart, Sr., for £100, and gave as security 100 acres adjoining land of Daniel Longstreth and Jos. Hart. (26 Vol. II, p. 7). 

May 27, 1763, Thomas Dungan, of Warminster, Cooper, and Sarah his wife, conveyed a tract to Derrick Tyson, which he bought of William and Sarah Hancock, on east side of Old York road, Manor of Moreland, adjoining land of Daniel Dungan. (32 1 16, p. 142). 

Dec. 7, 1769, same parties conveyed 26 acres to John Haffty; the deed recites that Enoch Dungan, of Warminster and Elizabeth his wife, had granted April 1, 1761, to Thomas Dungan 200 acres, of which this is apart. (26, 19 G, Vol. 1, page 93). 

Jan. 11, 1773, Thomas Dungan, of Abington Township, and Sarah his wife executed a bond for £200, to Charlotte Roush and Isaac Roush, executors of Nicholas Roush, of Germantown, Blue Dyer, deceased, secured by a messuage and plantation in the township of Abington, adjoining land formerly of John Roberts, Silas Crispin, Philip Thlerman (sic) and land late of John Sibley, containing 135 acres, which premises Silas Hart, of Warminster, County of Bucks, by deed of Jan. 2, 1770, granted to said Thomas Dungan by the name of Thomas Dungan, of Warminster, Yeoman, in fee. (Mtg. Book X 17, p. 161, Phila.). 

Issue, if any, unknown. 

45. Sarah Dungan, 10, daughter of Thomas and Esther (Evans) Dungan, b. Nov. 13, 1731. She was a witness to the second marriage of Robert Tomkins to Ann Longstreth 1753, at Abington Friend's Meeting. 

46. Abel Dungan, 10, son of Thomas and Esther (Evans) Dungan, b. May 26, 1734. m. circa 1759, Gainor Lukens, daughter of Peter Lukens* by his wife Gainor Evans. 


* The Lukens family, of Horsham, Pa., into which several of the Dungan family married: were descendants of Jan Lucken, from Crefield on the upper Rhine, who married Mary (Tyson?) and was one of the thirteen original settlers of Germantown, Phila. One of his sons, Peter Lukens, married Dec. 29, 1713 (42 minutes) Gainor Evans. Their children are given (45 Vol. 23 p. 408) as follows: John (eldest son) was Surveyor General of Pennsylvania and Delaware. (1761-1776), Abraham married Rachel Iredell; Joseph married Jane Palmer; Benjamin married Alice Cadwallader; Hannah married Robert Iredell; Evan married Martha Dungan; Peter married 1/29/1760, Jane Cadwallader; Anna married 4/18/1751 Isaac Cleaver, Jr.; Gaynor married Jesse Dungan. Most of these marriages are given correctly, but in the case of Gaynor, the authority Mr. Cooper is in error; the proof of this is furnished by a record in the Minutes of the Catawissa Friend's Meeting, in which Mary Dungan, from Deer Creek Meeting, informs "that she had married her first cousin and had been disowned but now (6/19/1805) desires to be reinstated." The writer has no knowledge of either Martha or Jesse Dungan. They were not children of Thomas and Esther according to (27) and are not named in Thomas' will.
