General Notes: Husband - William Tebay

---

He was a native of England, who came to America at an early date, locating first in the eastern part of Penn-sylvania, but later crossing the mountains and settling in the valley of Muddy Creek, Butler County. There were cross roads on the land where William located and they became known as the Tebay Cross Roads. A clearing was made near the spring, by which a fine willow tree stood, and here a log house was erected, but another building was later built nearer the cross roads. Here William Tebay was engaged in farming until his death.

With eight of his children, he emigrated to America in 1819, crossing the mountains of Pennsylvania in a wagon, and settling in the valley of Muddy Creek, in Muddy Creek Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, in November, 1819. There were crossroads on the 200-acre tract of land, where he located, which later became known as the Tebay Cross-Roads. Here, near a spring, where a fine willow tree stood, a clearing was made and a log house erected. Other buildings were erected later nearer the cross-roads. In this place William Tebay, Sr., engaged in farming until his death.
The first wagon used in the township was brought by the Tebay family from over the mountains and was used by neighbors far and near to be seen and admired.

He died at the residence of his son, William, in Mercer County, in 1836, aged seventy-five years.

One son, Thomas, did not come to America until 1840. He also settled in Muddy Creek (later Worth) Township, and later removed to Clay Township.
