Bucks County Historical Society Bulletin - Old Taverns of Doylestown
The Ship, 1805, in 1829 it was called the “Bucks County Inn”, in 1839 the “Bucks County Hotel”. This brings us down to 1851, when Alfred H. BARBER, of Point Pleasant, bought the property and moved there April I, 1852. Mr. Barber kept the house until the Fall of 1859, when he sold it to Aaron BARNDT, and moved out in the Spring of 1860, and the new landlord moved in. BARNDT did not long enjoy his new honors, for he died in 1862 or '63, and the Ship Tavern passed into the possession of his family, and, for the next ten years, it was in the hands of tenants. The first of these was Abner CLEAVER, who came from the Clear Spring and remained a couple of years, when he removed to the historic Brick Tavern, Newtown, where (1897) he still is.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN (1864) 2nd Inaugural
With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan - to do all which may achieve a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.
