General Notes: Husband - Benjamin Love
He was born in Ireland and came to America with his father when just a boy. For a number of years he was a wagoner but in 1820 he began farming in Hempfield township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, which he continued about three years, then removed to East Huntingdon township and purchased a farm. After seven years he sold his real estate and bought a farm in South Huntingdon township, on which he remained until his death.
In religious matters he was a believer in the doctrines of Martin Luther and in politics, an ardent follower of Jackson and an active worker in the interests of his party.
He emigrated to America in company with his father, settling in Pennsylvania. He was twelve years of age at the time of his arrival, and spent the remainder of his life in South Huntingdon township, Westmoreland County, being engaged in the butcher business and farming.
He and his wife were the parents of fourteen (another source says sixteen) children; eleven of these were still living in 1890.
