General Notes: Husband - James McNary
Cross Creek Twp, Washington Co, PA
He and his wife came to Washington County, Pennsylvania, and settled on part of Col. Reed's 359-acre tract. They raised a family of three sons and three daughters, all of whom married and left descendants.
Early in the spring of 1798 he and his wife crossed the Allegheny Mountains and located in Cross Creek Township, Washington County, upon a part of the tract of land received as compensation by his father-in-law, Col. Reed, from Col. James Marshall, for the transportation of Rev. Joseph Smith and family over the mountains to become the first pastor of the Cross Creek Presbyterian Church-the said Rev. Smith being the "worthy" in honor of whom Smith Township was named, at the date of the organization of the county.
He and his wife were members of the Seceder (later the U. P.) Church at Hickory, Pennsylvania.
