General Notes: Husband - Daniel McCoy


He was a native of Scotland, came to America in 1772, with his brothers, Angus and James, landing in Baltimore, Maryland, where, as was the custom at that period with impecunious immigrants, they were hired to a tobacco planter to work out the price of passage. On the same trip there came over a Miss Nancy McCoy, who for a similar reason was hired to the same planter who employed Daniel, and the friendship which sprung up between Nancy and Daniel ripened, in course of time, into a love which resulted in their union for life as soon as their passage had been fully worked out. They then came to Washington County, Pennsylvania, and there bought a farm in what is now West Finley township, the original land patent for which was obtained from the Craig heirs. The old deed, dated 1788, was in the possession of the family for many years.
