General Notes: Husband - Andrew Culbertson


He emigrated to America from Londonderry County, Ireland, and settled in Kennett Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania, before 1726. He left Chester County in 1728-29 and settled in Hopewell Township, Lancaster (later Cumberland) County, being one of the very first permanent settlers of the present Cumberland County. There is little doubt but that he was with the first party of Benjamin Chambers that went to Cumberland County. He probably did not come to America with Chambers' party. He lived but a short distance from the Row and his descendants have always been regarded as belonging to the Row, but they did not, as that term was applied to the settlement of the three Irish brothers, Alexander, Robert and Samuel and cousin Joseph. He was an uncle of the three "Row" brothers.
An inventory of his estate was filed in 1747. On it his name is written Colbertson and it shows that he was one of the wealthiest men of the Cumberland Valley. The total value of the inventory was about $4000, a very large sum for those days.
