General Notes: Husband - James Kirkpatrick

---

His farm was near the site of Barnards post office, Cowanshannock township. He removed to that place from near Elderton about 1795. Shortly before their removal they had a battle with some scouting Indians who came around their house during morning worship. Hearing someone outside Mr. Kirkpatrick opened the door. The Indians fired into the house through the open door killing one of the children. He shut the door and ran to the loft of the house where he made port-holes by pulling out some "chunking" from between the logs and fired several times at the Indians. At least two of the Indians were wounded but it was never known whether any of them were killed or not, for they withdrew taking all their party with them.
