    • John Haines, the eldest son, came to America two years previous to his father's family and lived in a cave below Lumberton, New Jersey, on the south branch of Rancocas Creek. Later this area was called Haines Bank. in 1683 he bought 600 acres of land at Goshen, Chester County Pennsylvania. He extended his holdings with other holdings one of which was purchased in 1710 from Thomas Mercer of Aynho-on-ye-hill. The town of West Chester, Pa. is built on land owned by John Haines and devised to his six children.
      John also owned 200 acres on the Rancocas River. He was joint proprietor, with his brother Richard and others, of 2,190 acres upon which the Friendship Mill was located. They bought the Indian title and received deeds from the Indian Chief, We-Sosig. In November 1711, they surveyed 2,240 acres to John, Richard, and William Haines as well as four other men. This survey was known as the Friendship Tract.
      He had 13 children with his first wife and none with his second.
