General Notes: Husband - Hugh Gallagher


He came to America from Ireland to what is now Wayne township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, in 1831. There he bought 200 acres of land from a Mr. Colwell of Kittanning, for one dollar per acre. On this property he built a log cabin, and settling down began life in true pioneer style, clearing off his land, and developing it into a valuable property. He was one of the organizers of the St. Michael's Episcopal Church in Wayne township, and one of its most liberal and influential members.
