General Notes: Husband - William Egbert


This family settled on the farm in Sandy Lake Township, Mercer County, Pennsylvania, that was later owned by W. H. Clawson. He and his wife were consistent members of the Baptist Church.
He was a shoe-maker by trade.

His home was in Monmouth County, New Jersey, until the year 1800. He was a trooper of the revolution and bore all through his after life a powder mark on his face. He was a high-spirited, energetic man and of the material that pioneers should possess. He migrated to western Pennsylvania in 1800 and was the first white settler in the part of Mercer County that became Sandy Lake township. He was a shoemaker by trade and also had a tannery on his farm. It is said that the first blacksmith shop was opened on his farm, but he probably hired a smith or rented him the shop. The land he possessed in Sandy Lake township was still in a large part owned by his descendants a century later. He lived to be nearly ninety years of age and maintained his vigor until the last. It is related of him that at the age of eighty-four he mounted and rode a colt that he brought in thoroughly subdued, although younger men had failed to break him. [GPHNP, 1127]
