About Lima, Pennsylvania

Lima is a community of 2,745 people in Middletown Township, Delaware County, about 3 miles west of Media. The village grew around a crossroads once known as Middletown Cross Roads, the site of the Pine Apple, a tavern kept by Philip Yarnall. When the crossroads got its first post office, the office took the name Hamor's Store.

Quakers were here early. Their Middletown Friends Meetinghouse went up in 1702, when this land still belonged to Chester County, and it ranks among the oldest Friends meetinghouses in that original county. That Quaker community shaped the village that followed, from its stand against slavery to the inventor who settled here late in the century.

  • The paper matchbook, 1892Joshua Pusey moved in 1889 to Maple Linden, his home on North Middletown Road in Lima. In 1892 he won a U.S. patent for the paper matchbook, and three years later he sold it to the Diamond Match Company, which was soon making millions of them every year. Pusey came from an old Quaker family, fought in the Civil War, practiced law in Philadelphia for many years and earned nearly 40 patents. A state historical marker now honors him.
  • A village for free Black familiesLima took a part in the fight against slavery. Its residents pushed to free enslaved people, and leading families such as the Van Leers and the Foxes sold building lots to free Black tradesmen, or sold only to buyers who supported the free Black community. With its neighbors' help, that settlement, the Village of Lima, grew into today's Van Leer Avenue. John P. Van Leer, part of the anti-slavery movement, later served as a Civil War colonel.
