General Notes: Husband - William W. Gladden

---

He was a miller by trade. He and his wife came to Cecil township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, in May, 1795, and bought of one Nicholas Gaunce 206¼ acres, of which tract he had secured the patent in 1789, and this became their permanent home.

He came from England and settled east of the mountains in Pennsylvania. He was a soldier in the Revolution, fighting for freedom and his adopted country. He reared a family of eight children. [HAC 1889 II, 498]

He was a native of Bucks County, Pennsylvania. During early life he was a teamster, and served in that capacity during the Revolution. He came to western Pennsylvania at an early day, and there followed the milling business. He was also a farmer, and purchased 321 acres of land near the site that became McDonald station, and there remained until his death.
To this pioneer and his wife were born five sons and three daughters, all of whom grew to manhood and womanhood. [HAC 1889 II, 577]

He was born in eastern Pennsylvania. [CBRWC, 1229]
