| Notes |
- The town of Douglassville, near Pottstown, was named after him, for he lived in Douglass Manor. He also built and ran the White Horse Tavern, which was a stop on the Schuylkill River for travelers to and from Philadelphia. In 1776, in the Revolutionary War, he commanded a company in Lotz's Battalion. A pew in the Valley Forge Memorial Chapel has been given as a memorial to him. (email from Barb Bentrem, 5th grandchild).
