  In 1745, Philadelphia Quaker merchant and ship owner Mathias Aspden purchased a lot filled with crude brewery buildings in the center of the village of Haddonfield. One of many wealthy colonial businessmen investing in the rapidly growing economy of the Delaware Valley's colonies, Aspden cleared the site and began construction of the largest tavern building along the village's main road [Later Indian King].
