A group of four or five houses on the Bristol Road in Warminster Township, a short distance below Hartsville. The only description of Babytown available is that of a Civil War veteran who in 1904 toured Warminster on foot after an absence of fifty years and made this note:

I saw but one ‘kid,’ and that was making noise enough to make up for what was missing.”
