Around 1806, it was called "Pinetown" and consisted of a stone store-house adjoining a frame dwelling, kept by Jacob Heston, near the site of Jesse P. Carver's store. The dwelling house and tailor-shop of William Trego stood on the point between the Centreville turnpike and the Buckingham road. Jesse S. Heston kept store in the bar-room of the present tavern. Pineville was so named from a cluster of pine trees that stood about 150 yards south of the crossroads. These trees were cut down about 1846. The forging of the iron work for the county jail at Doylestown, erected in 1812, was done at Pineville. The iron was hauled from Bethlehem in farm wagons.[3] LandmarksAnother dwelling, and David Stogdale's farm house, with a school-house near the present store, and removed in 1842, completed the community. It had neither tavern, wheelwright, nor blacksmith. The post office was established after 1830, with Samuel Tomlinson the first postmaster, when the name was formally changed to Pineville. The first tavern, licensed in 1835 or 1836, was kept by Tomlinson, after having been for several years previously a temperance house. It now contains about twenty five dwellings. John Thompson kept store at the Pines before the Revolution; he also owned a mill on the Neshaminy.[4] References1. ^{{cite gnis|1204406|Pineville}} {{Bucks County, Pennsylvania}}2. ^DeLorme.
