General Notes: Husband - James Vincent, Sr.


He came to the United States in 1794, and located in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. While there he married and early in 1796 removed to Mercer County. Becoming dissatisfied with the locality in which they settled, he purchased, the same year, a tract of 400 acres in what is now Marion township, Butler county, and early in 1798 he settled upon it with his wife and two sons. Some time in the eighteen-twenties he purchased 200 acres of land near Cadiz, Ohio, and gave to his sons, Thomas and John, 100 acres each, upon which they settled. About the same time he pur­chased another 200-acre tract in what is now Slippery Rock township, Butler county, upon which his sons Robert and William located. He built a grist mill there, operated by water power, but in the fall of 1835 it was burned. He soon afterwards rebuilt it and the mill was standing and in successful operation for many years afterward.
