General Notes: Husband - Archibald Loudon


He was one of the largest land owners in the Cumberland Valley, Pennsylvania, and was also, at one time, interested in the iron business with his cousin, John McCormick.

He began life as a farmer on the ridge a little to the northeast of where is now New Kingstown, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, and near where his father settled when he came into the Cumberland Valley. He prospered, and being enterprising, he and John Walker, a neighbor, engaged at manufacturing iron at Mt. Holly, Cumberland County, during the years 1800 and 1801. The venture was a financial failure, both partners losing heavily. He continued to live on his farm near New Kingstown until about 1820, when he exchanged it for a farm lying on the Juniata river, opposite Newport, Perry County, and with his family removed to it. Here he died; his wife died five days after her husband, and the remains of both lie interred in the cemetery of the Silver Spring Church.

In 1754, as his parents were on their way to America, his cousin, Archibald Loudon, was born at sea. This cousin subsequently lived and died at Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, and their names being similar, the two are apt to be confounded with each other on the records.
