General Notes: Husband - William Gaddis

---

He was of Irish parentage, and probably came to Frederick County, Virginia, with the Irish immigration of 1737-40; at all events he was a landholder in 1750, as transfers show. His wife survived him, and after his death joined her children in Fayette County, Pennsylvania.
