General Notes: Husband - Elijah Newlon


He was married in Adams County, Pennsylvania, and moved to the "Quaker settlement" in Sewickley township, Westmoreland County, about 1787.

He and his wife settled in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, near West Newton, about 1780, where he purchased land and cultivated it to such advantage that he became one of the most prosperous of the county's citizens. His home was named "The Willows," and in 1818 he left his original home and took up his residence in another part of the county, later returning to, and occupying, "The Willows," where he died.
