General Notes: Husband - James McQuilkin


He was born near Edinburgh, Scotland, and arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1773.

The McQuilkins were originally from Scotland, but went over into the north of Ireland, and were among the sturdy Scotch-Irish who became early settlers of Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania.
He was born near Edinburgh, Scotland, came from Ireland to America in 1780, and settled in Salem township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, at the head of Beaver run. He was a prominent member of the Presbyterian church, was one of the founders of the church of that denomination at Salem, and was largely instrumental in the formation of the congregation and erection of the church edifice. He settled the estates of scores of the people, and for over a quarter of a century did the principal part of the conveyancing for that section of his county. He was a stanch democrat in politics.

One of his sons learned the blacksmith trade near Pleasant Unity, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania; one became a carpenter in Beaver County; two were boot and shoemakers; two were farmers.


General Notes: Wife - Ann Robison


She was born in the "Big Cove" of Pennsylvania.
