General Notes: Husband - Thomas McClellan


It is said he built the sixth house erected in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania. From Bellefonte he moved to the land in Spring township later occupied by his son-in-law, M. P. Weaver. When he located on the place there was scarcely any cleared land in that portion of Spring township. From Boiling Spring to his farm the path was through a dense forest. He had to build fires to keep the wolves from his cabin, and even then the beasts would at times howl all night at the cabin's very door.
