Richard Bache (1737–1811), born in Settle, Yorkshire, England, immigrated to Philadelphia, in the colony of Pennsylvania, where he was a businessman, a marine insurance underwriter, and later served as head of the American Post Office. He also was the son-in-law of Benjamin Franklin. ==Career== Bache immigrated as a young man in 1760 to New York to join his brother Theophylact in a dry goods and marine insurance business. After a couple of years, he went to Philadelphia, where he prospered for several years. He was among nearly 30 young men who in October 1766 met at the city's London Coffee House to found the Gloucester Fox Hunting Club (GFHC), the first in America, to take up a pursuit closely associated with becoming "true Englishmen."〔(Doreen Skala, "Fox Hunting and Anglicization in Eighteenth-Century Philadelphia" ), in ''Locating the English Diaspora, 1500-2010'', edited by Tanja Bueltmann, Liverpool University Press, 2012, pp. 61-62, accessed 5 November 2012〕 In 1767, Bache suffered financial problems when debts contracted by him were repudiated by his London associate, Edward Green.
