General Notes: Husband - John Porter, Sr.


He made himself obnoxious to the party in power by singing a song of his own composition which was very uncomplimentary to the reigning monarch, George I. On account of this he was obliged to flee the country. He came to America in about 1715, settled in Baltimore County, Maryland.
