General Notes: Husband - Daniel Large


Chester County, Pennsylvania [HBC 1888, 705]

From England, he settled in what became Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, in 1828, and with James Patterson purchased 600 acres of land. Daniel Large was interested in the first flour and saw mill in the place, and with his brother Christopher built the first cotton mill in the place. [HBC 1888, 678]

He was a machinist by trade, which had been the calling of the male members of his family for many generations. In 1809 they emigrated to America, landing at Philadelphia, in which city they were residents all their lives. He was considered one of the best machinists in the city, and they were members of the Episcopal church. [GPHBC, 240]
