     Ann Rawlings was born in 1730 at Hyle, Bucks County, Pennsylvania, America.¹ She married Solomon Hoge Sr, son of William Hoge II and Mary Pancoast, between 1747 and 1767 at Bucks County, Pennsylvanai, America.¹ As of between 1747 and 1767,her married name was Hoge.¹ Ann Rawlings died in 1771 at Bucks County, Pennsylvania, America.¹

     Like many of the early Quakers, Mary's father Isaac, strongly opposed vocal and instrumental music
and dancing, gay and stylish raiment for his women folk, and even the beautification of his home
grounds with flower gardens. But of his six daughters, Mary the second "was simply not born to
adhere to any sombre form of religion. She loved all kinds of music, was continually singing and
dancing, would laugh long and heartily over anything that amused her and dearly loved beautiful
clothes of the gayest colors. In fact Mary was bubbling over with vitality and high spirits, and there
was no place in her life for any religious doctrine or manner of living that excluded them." Her father
was deeply disturbed, and as a last resort, made his will disinheriting her.
Hannah Ingelow Janney was one of the leading Quaker leaders in the Goose Creek MH, and hearing
of Isaac's harsh action toward his daughter, called at the Nichols home. Upon hearing Isaac's
frustration in making Mary abide by the Quaker customs, she replied, "Isaac, thee knows she gets her
stubbornness hosestly; she gets it directly from thee. Now Isaac, I have come to tell thee that thee
must change thy will and make it conform to the discipline of the Friends, which provides that all the
children shall share equally in their father's estate."
After some time in argument, Hannah wrote a codicil to his will which enabled Mary to inherit an equal
share of her father's estate. She had him sign and she witnessed it. After many years had passed
and he had mellowed and softened his views, he wrote another will, whick fully included Mary.
In 1773, Mary was to become the second wife of Solomon Hoge, a highly capable and respected
man, with whom she lived happily for many years. "Her descendants are now widely scattered in a
number of our states and many of them still preserve and cultivate their love of music and cherish the
beautiful things of this world."
