General Notes: Husband - Zachariah McColly

---

He was an early pioneer of western Pennsylvania and in the last decade of the eighteenth century was killed by an Indian while on a scouting expedition in what is now Lawrence County. He had stopped at a frontier cabin where religious services were being held and on stepping outside of the door was shot by an Indian spy who was concealed in the woods at some little distance from the cabin. [BHCWC, 544]

He was born in either Scotland or America. He moved from Maryland to eastern Pennsylvania in the early part of his life. He was killed by the Indians while on a scouting expedition in what is now Lawrence county, but lived long enough to shoot the Indian who gave him his death wound.

He had one child with his first wife; his second marriage produced three daughters and one son.
