General Notes: Husband - James Welch

---

He was probably born in South Carolina, near Charleston. He came to the Paxtang settlement on the Susquehanna river in Pennsylvania, about 1727-29, and secured a farm upon the east bank of the river. He died and was buried in the old Covenanter churchyard, six miles east of Harrisburg, on the Union Deposit road. The same stone commemorates the death of his son James.
