General Notes: Husband - James Elwood

---

He came to America from the North of Ireland in company with a brother, the latter settling near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. James Elwood came westward to Westmoreland County, and there passed the remainder of his life, reaching the ripe old age of ninety-six years. (Other sources say his name was William Elwood, and that he settled on Turtle Creek, Westmoreland County, in 1783.) He was a farmer by occupation. In religion he was a strict Presbyterian.
