He came from the North of Ireland to America in 1753.
He married and in 1803, they removed from Mifflin to Erie County, Pennsylvania, and settled on a farm, which he purchased, near the mouth of Twenty-Mile creek. Here they resided until 1813, when, his wife's health being poor, they removed to Harbor Creek, and remained with their son James until their respective deaths. He was an elder in the Associated Reformed Church, in Mifflin County, and June 19, 1816, he was installed an elder in the Rev. Robert Reid's church, of the same denomination, at Erie.
