General Notes: Husband - John Dinsmore


When a boy, he removed with his father to Washington County, Pennsylvania, and there spent his life. He was a man of great force of character, an elder in the Upper Buffalo Presbyterian congregation for nearly fifty years, distinguished for piety and greatly respected. He was a thrifty man, and became a large land-holder. In 1808-10 he built the large, solid, old-fashioned house which was the nest of the family for more than eighty years.
