General Notes: Husband - William Culbertson


He came to Washington township, Erie County, Pennsylvania, in 1797, as the first settler, and built the first grist and saw mill in the township.

He was one of the early settlers of Edinboro, Erie County, Pennsylvania, where he engaged in milling and farming. He was also Justice of the Peace, which office he held continuously for forty years..

Alex. Hamilton and William Culbertson, both of Williamsport, Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, visited the site of Edinboro, Washington township, Erie County, and selected lands with the design of establishing a colony. They returned to their home in the fall and spent the winter along the West Branch of the Susquehanna enlisting settlers. In the spring of 1797, they came back, and were soon followed by others.
