General Notes: Husband - John McIlvaine


In 1813, in the latter part of June, he, with his family, left his native state of Delaware for Washington County, Pennsylvania, arriving there after a tedious journey-a great undertaking in those days-in the early part of August, and locating on Pike Run. In the same county two of his uncles, George and Grier McIlvaine, were then living, and also two of his brothers-in-law, Fisher and James White.
In October of 1814 he moved to Connellsville, Fayette County, where he lived until March, 1815, when he moved across the river into New Haven, a town at that time comprising about twenty dwellings and a few shops. Here, in 1815, Mrs. McIlvaine taught a small school, this school being one of the pioneer educational enterprises of the village.

He and his wife had ten children, six born in Delaware.
