General Notes: Husband - Joseph Russell


He and his wife immigrated to America about 1832, and settled in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He engaged in the contracting business on the public works in Philadelphia, and continued in that business until 1852, when he re­moved to Mercer County, and settled at New Vernon, where he engaged in farming.
He met his death by accident, through his team running away.
