In 1795 he and his family of five sons and two daughters came to America and first settled in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In the latter part of 1795 they removed from Pittsburgh, and located on a tract of land in what became Worth Township, Mercer County.

A Scotch-Irishman, he emigrated from County Cavan, Ireland, in 1795; landed at Philadelphia, and came west-ward to Pittsburgh, where he remained until 1799. He removed with his family, who were then adults, to Worth township, Mercer County.
