General Notes: Husband - John Leman


He shared with Andrew Eagleson the honor of being the first settler in Canton Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania.

He emigrated from Ireland to America, and settled for some years in Chester County, Pennsylvania. About 1779 he emigrated with his family to what soon after became Washington County, and took up land, for which he received a Virginia certificate Feb. 18, 1780. This tract was surveyed April 11, 1785, as "Care," and contained three hundred and forty-nine acres. At the time of the survey it was adjoining lands of Robert Stockton, James Brownlee, and other lands of Leman. The other land here mentioned was a tract named "Leman Grove," to which he received a patent March 3, 1786. He sold a few years later one hundred acres of "Leman Grove" to James Latimore.
