General Notes: Husband - Robert Humphry

---

He was a soldier of the Revolutionary war, and among the many engagements in which he participated were: Bunker Hill, Brandywine and Germantown. Shortly after the close of the war he was married, and they settled in what was then the wilds of Virginia, within the bounds of what later came to be known as Ohio County, West Virginia, but near to the Pennsylvania line. They were many times compelled to flee from their home to the fort, for safety from the Indians, the last time when the infant daughter Martha was three weeks old. Mr. Humphry laid out the village of West Alexander, Pennsylvania, on one of his farms, naming it for his wife.
