General Notes: Husband - Robert Henderson

---

He lived on a farm in Chartiers township, Washington County, Pennsylvania.

He settled on a tract of land which his father purchased May 1, 1792, of Gavin Morrison. This was part of a tract of land which was patented by Mr. Morrison as "White Oak Spring." In the division this property fell to Elizabeth (Mrs. Alexander Murdoch), and was by her conveyed to her brother, Robert, in June, 1811.
He was for many years an elder in Chartiers congregation.
