General Notes: Husband - James Hindman

---

He and his wife came to the United States about 1790, first settling in Westmoreland County, PA, and in 1792 purchasing a tract of 288 acres in what is now West Franklin township, Armstrong County. Mr. Hindman made the first improvements on that property, and there he and his wife continued to live to the close of their long lives. They led the life typical of those days. They not only had to clear their land before they could cultivate it, but had to depend on their own exertions for many things now readily ob­tained. They grew flax, spun and wove the cloth needed for clothing for themselves and their family, and put up with many incon­veniences incidental to life in a new country. In addition to general agricultural pursuits, Mr. Hindman raised stock, which he drove to market at Lancaster, PA, and with the pro­ceeds of his industry was able to purchase more land, buying the farm in West Franklin township later owned by A. M. Hindman and another in East Franklin owned by Burt and James Hindman. The old log house which he built was in time replaced by a more con­venient dwelling and the latter in turn gave way to a modern residence now the farm, a substantial house erected in 1881.
