General Notes: Husband - Thomas Henderson

---

He left Ireland on account of the part he took against the English government in his native country. One of his friends, an ardent advocate of Irish independence, was hanged one day in his presence, and he immediately came to America to avoid the certainty of imprisonment and a probability of execution. He was married in Ireland and his wife was drowned some years after their arrival in America in the Loyalhanna creek, near Saltsburg, Pennsylvania. He was an old time presbyterian, who was devoted to the religious faith of his forefathers.
