General Notes: Husband - Joseph Gilmore

---

He came to America from County Down, Ireland, in 1790, and located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

With his young wife he immigrated to America in the last years of the eighteenth century, and found a home in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He spent a few years there, and then came to North Beaver township, Beaver (later Lawrence) County, and located about four miles south of Mt. Jackson on the place where T. Swisher later made his home. His experience was that of his fellow-pioneers-a hard but winning struggle to subdue the wild forests, and reclaim the good brown acres. He built a log-cabin and before much time had elapsed had one hundred acres under cultivation. His remaining years were spent on this homestead, where he died at the age of seventy-five; his wife also lived to about the same age.
