General Notes: Husband - James Anderson


He was born in the North of Ireland, and with other members of his family came to America and settled in Cecil County, Maryland. He had brothers with him, and it is believed his parents came also. Sometime in early manhood he, with other brothers, came north to Pennsylvania. He stopped for a time in Northumberland County, while his brothers went on to Crawford and Westmoreland counties. In 1802, he, with his wife and children, came to Fort Le Boeuf, now Waterford, Erie County. His name is the first one found on the tax list of 1813, which showed he owned property there.
