General Notes: Husband - Henry McCalmont
He was for many years a prominent citizen of Cornplanter township, Venango County, Pennsylvania. He was a native of Mifflin County, but had removed to Centre prior to the year of 1819, when he settled in Sugar Creek township near his father and brothers who had come to that locality some years previously. In 1821 he located near Plumer on the old Warren road and kept a house of entertainment. On one occasion a stranger who had been given a lodging was found in his bed in the morning unconscious and within a brief time died. He was buried on the farm, and this suggested to Mr. McCalmont the idea of setting apart a plat of ground for burial purposes. The ground so appropriated constitutes the site of the United Presbyterian church at Plumer and the graveyard adjoining. He was justice of the peace many years. [HVC 1890, 650]
Another source states that he was born in Lycoming County, PA, March 4, 1776, and died January 5, 1855.
He came to Venango County, PA, in 1819, removed to Cornplanter Township in 1851, and founded the town of Plumer.
