General Notes: Husband - William McIntyre

---

He was a cooper by trade, but later took up farming as a means of livelihood. He came with his family to America in 1832. They were nine weeks crossing the Atlantic ocean. Landing at Baltimore, Maryland, they came by horses and wagon to Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, and located in what is now South Buffalo township, where Mr. McIntyre purchased 250 acres of timberland, for which he paid $1.50 in gold per acre, and on which he built a log house, stable, and other buildings. Like all early settlers, his first work was the clearing up of this land, and getting it into the proper condition to raise crops thereon. He lived there until his death. It is said that his death was hastened by his being injured by a falling tree. He was a member of the Presbyterian Church.

He was born at Wigton, Scotland, and came to America in May, 1832, bringing with him his wife and children, with the exception of his eldest son. In Scotland he had been a cooper, and he settled on a farm in Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, where he followed his trade and also cultivated his land. He and his family were members of the Established Church, and politically he was a Whig.
