Joseph F. Sinnott was 17 when he arrived in Philadelphia from Ireland in 1854. Thirty years later he was sole owner of one of the largest distilleries in America. With wealth came the desire for a Main Line mansion for his wife, Annie Eliza, and their eight children. He named the house “Rathalla” – Irish for “home of the chieftain upon the highest hill.” Mr. Sinnott died in 1906; Mrs. Sinnott in 1918.
