General Notes: Husband - [Father] Denniston

---

The Denniston settlement was made in the southwest part of Springfield Township, Mercer County, Pennsylvania, at the closing of the 1700s and the opening of the 1800s. There were five brothers in one family and three brothers and four sisters in the other.

The Dennistons came from Washington County, Pennsylvania. In traveling through the glades of Butler County, the wolves were so threatening in the night (for they camped out) that they sought safety in building a number of fires round their encampment. Even then Alexander succeeded in killing one that came near enough to show the reflection of his eyes. This wolf is said to have measured eight feet from the tip of his nose to the end of his tail.
