General Notes: Husband - David Say

He served in the Revolutionary War.
He removed to Westmoreland County, PA, and, with the party organized by James Scott, to Venango County in 1795. The first season he cleared several acres of land and sowed wheat. The following spring he brought out his family, carrying the oldest child on his back, while an ox carried all their household effects. Unfortunately the ox was not entirely sure footed and fell, breaking some of the dishes, upon which Mrs. Say is said to have sat down and cried. He was township collector a number of years.
