General Notes: Husband - John Wigton

---

He was a native of Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and came from the east to Butler County in 1799. He at first stayed a short time on the land that later became known as the Foltz property, then bought out John Morrow's settler's right, lived on the Morrow farm seven years, then moved to another farm on which resided until his death. He was a good penman, and taught school where West Liberty was later located, holding writing-school in the evening.
