General Notes: Husband - Francis "Frank" Andrews
The eldest of the three Andrews brothers who migrated to America, he came from County Antrim about 1800 and settled on what was later the site of the Cunningham farm, two miles north of Mount Pleasant, in Mount Pleasant township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. His property was situated on what was later the brick road. Shortly after his settlement he was followed to America by two brothers, John and Alexander, who settled near him. The three brothers were members of the United Presbyterian church of Mount Pleasant, of which Francis was one of the founders.
He emigrated to America from Ireland when a young man, and when he arrived in the United States he had but fifty cents in money. However, he soon found employment and became one of the leading farmers in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, and at his death was the owner of five farms, which he bequeathed to his five sons.
He came to America from either Scotland or Ireland, being of Scotch-Irish descent. He located in Mount Pleasant township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, where he lived and died on a farm, one of three that he owned which were still in the possession of the family into the twentieth century.
