General Notes: Husband - James Patterson


He came [from Ireland] to America and bought 200 acres adjoining the farm of James McAnlis, in Lawrence County, Pennsylvania.

He was born in county Armagh, Ireland, and settled in Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, in 1815, having probably come to America in that year. He bought two hundred acres of land from the government in Big Beaver township, paying at the rate of six dollars an acre. In addition to farming he did a great deal of contract work, and constructed several miles of the old Beaver Valley Canal. He and his family were Covenanters. In stature he was very tall and erect, and he was the only child of his parents.
