General Notes: Husband - William McJunkin


The family came to America shortly after the Revolutionary war.
He located in Plum Township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, and reared a family of three sons and six daughters. [HBC 1883, 337]

He received a good common school education. He emigrated to America, and settled in Plum township, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, in 1788, about three years after his marriage. He erected the first block house in that section of the country, and he and his neighbors took refuge in it when the Indians made their frequent depredations. He was an active member of the Plum Creek Presbyterian Church, Allegheny County, and he assisted in building the original house of worship on a part of his farm. [GPHWP, 1380]
