General Notes: Husband - Absalom Liggett

---

The Liggetts were originally from the North of Ireland and of Scotch-Irish stock. On coming to America they settled in Virginia, and from there moved to Washington County, Maryland, whence came George, John and Absalom Liggett (brothers) into Bald Eagle Valley, then Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, later Centre County; the date of the location of these brothers in the Bald Eagle Valley is not definitely known, but is fixed by one of the grandsons of George Liggett as being as early as 1760, or in the decade following. They were among the earliest settlers of the Valley. They were slave owners, and brought some with them on coming to Pennsylvania.
