He acquired patents for one thousand acres of land in Hamilton Ban's Township, eight hundred in Mt. Joy Township, and six hundred and forty in Liberty Township, now in Adams County, Pennsylvania.

In his will, dated Sept. 13, 1776, he gave his dwelling plantation on Marsh Creek to his son Samuel; the land known as the Robert Bigham place to his son William; forty pounds to his daughter Elizabeth; fifteen pounds to his son Robert; the same to his daughter Marey Bigham McKinley; land on the west side of Marsh Creek to his son Thomas; one hundred pounds in gold to his daughter Jane; one hundred acres on Middle Creek to his son Hugh; and he provided that if his two sons, Thomas and William, who were then abroad in the service of their country, did not return, their lands were to go to their brothers.


General Notes: Wife - Martha Armor


She was probably a sister or possibly an aunt to Thomas Armor, an active Revolutionary patriot, who died in Yorktown, Pennsylvania, February-March, 1785 (he mentions in his will "cousins" Robert and Thomas Bingham).
