General Notes: Husband - [Father] Anthony


In tracing the ancestry of the Anthonys, we find a Mr. Anthony and family among the early settlers of Rhode Island in the time of Roger Williams.

About 1760, he and his family moved to a place near Germantown, now North Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In the spring of 1774 his two older sons, William and Jacob, decided to go west, and early in May, 1774, arrived in what is now Indiana County, Pennsylvania, near the site where Shelocta borough was later located. 1
