Joshua Pusey Eyre (1835-39, 51-52, 55-57, 62-63, 1865 to '72), son of Jonas

and Susanna (Pusey) Eyre, was born in Chester, July 14, 1803. He was

apprenticed to the dry goods trade to Townsend Sharpless, of Philadelphia, and

when free returned to Chester, where, in 1824, he established a general store at

the southwest corner of James (Third) and Edgmont streets. Later he and his

brother, William Eyre, Jr., engaged in the lumber and coal business, at the same

time running the packet "Jonas Preston," which made tri-weekly trips between

Chester and Philadelphia, conveying passengers and freight.
