General Notes: Husband - Benjamin Anderson

---

He followed the blacksmith trade in Ireland, and in 1792 he sailed with his family to America, accompanied by his brother Matthew and family. After a long and tedious voyage of over thirteen weeks, during which time little George was seized with a fatal disease and his body buried in an ocean grave, the family landed in New York. They proceeded to Washington County, Pennsylvania, and settled on Brush run, in what would become Hopewell township, the neighborhood being then very thinly settled. He continued to work at his trade while the sons attended to the duties of the home farm.
