General Notes: Husband - Jonathan Kelley

---

He came from Path Valley, east of the mountains, and settled near the center of Worth township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, on a tract of land of the usual number of acres in 1796. His outfit for aggressive and progressive work was an ax, a gun and a bushel of corn meal. Without delay, he reared a cabin, cleared a potato patch, and then went to Fort Pitt to work at his trade, blacksmithing, during the winter. When he returned in the spring, he found his cabin occupied by Benjamin Jack. Of course, he immediately proceeded to convince Mr. Jack that he was occupying his mansion. His argument did not at once carry with it the force of conviction, and it was some time before Mr. Jack was willing to believe that this unexpected claimant was the rightful owner, and held a pre-emptory claim. But finally, everything was adjusted amicably.
