History & geography

History

The Marley House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. Among the earliest settlers here was Jacob Leyenberger, aka Lineberry, said to be the first and only of the line of this family in America, born in the Harz Mountains of Northern Germany (Braunschweig), who arrived in Philadelphia on the Ship Robert and Alice from Dublin via Rotterdam, on September 3, 1739. The family lived on a farm in Southampton, Pennsylvania, Bucks County, and in the late summer of 1758, August 22, Jacob and his wife, Elizabeth Quarter departed for North Carolina, taking the Great Wagon Road into Orange County, now Chatham County and Randolph County, North Carolina. Jacob and his wife raised ten children, eight born in Germany. Their land appears to be in present day Chatham County near the border with Randolph County, east/northeast of the town of Staley, along the Rocky River (1780 Deed of sale). This area was likely part of Orange County before the boundary change in 1771. They are buried near the Brush Creek in the Lineberry Family Cemetery.
