General Notes: Husband - Lisle McCully


He came to America with his mother and her seven children, from County Derry, Ireland, in 1815, landing at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The little band of emigrants remained in the city a few weeks, and then, starting on foot for Clearfield County, made their way through the deep forests with nothing but an Indian path to guide them. The youngest child was then three years old, and doubtless all found the long journey of 175 miles a tedious one; but they finally arrived at their destination, and made a home near the mouth of Muddy run. Soon after their arrival Lisle McCully purchased one hundred acres of woodland from Hardman Phillips, and began clearing a farm, building a log house and barn, and making other improvements. In 1820 he sold this property and moved to Arch Spring, Huntingdon County, where he followed his trade of linen weaving until 1836. He then removed to the vicinity of Tyrone Forges, and engaged in burning charcoal and clearing land for the Tyrone Iron Co. In 1836 he returned to Clearfield County and purchased 156 acres of land in Gulich township, which he cleared and improved. He died there.
