History

Rose Valley was included in land grants by William Penn in 1681 to three  Vernon brothers – Thomas, Robert and Randal – while they were still in England.  They all arrived here the following year. Robert’s grant was confirmed by patent  in 1684, Thomas’s in 1702 and Randal’s in 1711. The three brothers’ lands were  contiguous, and each had considerable frontage on the east side of Ridley Creek.  Robert Vernon’s home is thought to be the three-story stone house on Old Mill Lane, now known as the Bishop White House, getting that name from William White who sent his family here from  Philadelphia during an epidemic of yellow fever in 1793. This house is currently a private residence that you see as you wind your way toward the Old Mill.
