General Notes: Husband - David Armstrong
David Armstrong, accompanied by his son, George, and his daughter, Rebecca, came to Butler County, Pennsylvania, in 1794, from Westmoreland County, making the journey on horseback. They made their temporary home in a tent or wigwam until fall, when the father and daughter returned to Westmoreland County. The following spring, the entire family came to Butler County and settled in Worth township, on the land held for them during the winter by the son, George.
David Armstrong was a soldier in the Revolutionary War, having enlisted in the Cumberland County Militia in 1777 under the command of Col. James Dunlap in Capt. Noah Abraham's company. His record may be found in Penna. Archives Vol. 6, Page 86.
