General Notes: Husband - Dr. David Wishart


He emigrated to America [from Scotland?] in 1796.

His maternal grandfather had emigrated to America, and Dr. David Wishart followed in July, 1796. After a tedious and dangerous voyage, being shipwrecked off Little Egg Harbor, he at last arrived safely. He was for a short time at Hagerstown, Maryland, and upon the purchase of lands in Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania, by Dr. David Wishart, the family removed to that place, and later to Bedford County, where Dr. David Wishart had an extensive practice.
