General Notes: Husband - Richard Monjar
The Monjars are of French extraction. He was a shoe-maker, and the first of that trade to come to Irwin Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania, where he secured a tract of four hundred acres lying three miles west of the borough of Clintonville. It was in 1797 that he made his home there, building a log house upon a part of his land which later passed into the possession of James Farron, though the principal part of his holding remained in the hands of his descendants, going to his son, Surrena, whose son E. Hayes Monjar later owned and occupied it. Richard Monjar made the first clearing upon his tract. [CAB, 976]
