Township vs. County Funds
| When MaryAnna Ralph was the Chairperson of the Board of Supervisors, she used Township Open Space funds to purchase the development rights of this property. The development rights could have been purchased with Chester County funds, but she did not to make the Mendenhalls adhere to the County's rules for personal reasons. |

Where’s our $900,000?
|
|
| So we citizens of Pennsbury, through our "open space tax" gave the now bankrupt owners of this property $900,000. How nice. To call this monstrosity of a farm "open space" is a perversion of the term. The space is NOT open. There is a large, modern, and not very attactive farm that one can hardly see from the the roads that border it. All we have done is give the owners $900,000 for nothing. |

A voice that soared !
| A voice that soared ! |
| What I will remember about Peggy is her incredible contralto singing voice. As a vocal student of Emil Markow's at WCSU for over 6 years, I would sit at the carol sing at Birmingham Friends Meeting in breathless awe, wrapped in the warmth of a rare and enviable voice. Her "vocal" talents continued as she manned the radio communication center at the big second-story picture window in back of the Barn during Chadds Ford Days, over-seeing all and making sure everything ran smoothly. A grand lady - a sad loss. |
