General Notes: Husband - Samuel Ackelson


He was born in County Down, Ireland, where he re­ceived a common-school education, and there learned the trade of weaver. He married and the young couple sailed for America soon after their marriage, landing in New York at the close of a seventeen-weeks voyage. Their first permanent location was made near Canonsburg, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where he purchased a small farm and followed the weaver's trade. He resided in Robinson township several years, and moving to Hanover township in 1814, located on the home farm where he died.
