General Notes: Husband - David Mitchell


He was a native of Mifflin County, Pennsylvania, came to Ferguson during the War of 1812, and purchased land of Samuel Wilson, upon which he settled. The effects of the war were severely felt at that time, so much so that the price of provisions and all commodities ranged extremely high, the price of land being in proportion. He subsequently located in the neighborhood of the Meek settlement, and for a long time carried on the business of a distiller, first at Rock Spring and later near Pine Grove Mills. He also occasionally taught school. He afterwards gave up distilling, and bought a farm of Robert Allison.
