On page 391 of A Gazetteer of the State Of Pennsylvania, by Thomas F. Gordon (1832) (reprinted by Polyanthos 1975):
   
  Quakertown p-t (post town) and village of Richland T-ship, Bucks co., on the t-pike road from Philadelphia to Bethlehem, 37 ms. N.N.W. from the former, and 15 ms. south from the latter, and 17 ms. N.W. of Doylestown, 172 ms. N.E. of W.C.., 86 E. of Harrisburg.  It is a small neat town of a single street, containing about 40 dwellings, 2 stores, 3 taverns, and a Quaker meeting house, situated in a rich and thriving settlement.
   
  Hope this helps.
