General Notes: Husband - John Nichol


He and his wife were born and married in County Down, Ireland, and about the year 1790 came to America. They were members of the United Presbyterian Church.
On coming to Pennsylvania, they settled in Allegheny County on the Steubenville Pike, their purchase of land covering a tract of twelve hundred acres. This he cleared and cultivated, built a log house and large barns, and lived in prosperity wrought by his own labor until one day, in jumping from the hay mow to his wagon beneath, he struck a cross piece and was killed by the fall.
