   CHARLES D. WEART farmer, P.O. Yardley, was born in Mercer 
county, N. J., June 10, 1831, and is a son of Spencer S. and 
Sarah (Garrison) Weart.  His paternal grandparents were John 
and Susan (Stout) Weart.  John Weart was a son of Johannes 
and Mary Magdalena (Varse) Weart, who emigrated from Germany 
to New Jersey in the early part of the last century.  Our 
subject's maternal grandfather, Captain William Garrison, of 
Scotch descent, was a resident of Somerset county, N. J., 
and a soldier of the war of 1812. John Weart also served in 
that war.  Charles D. was reared in Mercer county, N. J., 
where he resided until 1866, when he removed to Lower 
Makefield township, where he has since resided.  He married 
Mercy A., daughter of Edward and Elizabeth (Dungan) 
Nickleson, of Lower Makefield township.  By her he has six 
children:  Edward N. and James G., the former in the real 
estate business in Chicago and the latter a lawyer in the 
same city; Lillie (Mrs. Wesley Danser), Algernon, Elizabeth 
and Jacob.  Mr. Weart and wife are members of the Episcopal 
church.  He has held several of the minor offices of the 
township.  Politically he is a republican.
