General Notes: Husband - William Wolf

---

He came to Buffalo township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, at an early day and made a settlement, but seems to have been driven away by the Indians. On Feb. 27, 1786, he warranted a tract of land called "Wolf's Hollow," located on the waters of Buffalo Creek, containing three hundred and eighty-five acres. This land was surveyed later, and attached to the survey is an affidavit, showing that "the above William Wolf was driven from the above place through force or fear of the Indians, during the late war, and his place was left without inhabitants." The property in question was later owned by the heirs of William Price, and upon it William Wolf passed all but the very last part of his life.

He was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. In 1775 he moved to Washington County, and soon afterward enlisted in the service of Louis Wetzel, the great Indian hunter, as a spy. For some time he taught in country schools.

All of his children lived to be over eighty years of age, except William who died when sixty years old.
