General Notes: Husband - John McCalmont
He was born in Antrim, County Antrim, Ireland. [GGSOPF, 336]
He came to America in 1766 and served through the Revolutionary War, locating in Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, at its close. He subsequently removed to Mifflin County and then to Centre County in 1787. In 1803 he settled in Sugar Creek Township, Venango County. [HVC 1890, 264 & 545]
He came to America when sixteen years old. He had been apprenticed to a clockmaker, but not liking either his master or the trade entered into an agreement with the captain of the ship "Rose," to serve three years for his passage to America, with the privilege of selecting the person with whom he should live, and of having his indenture cancelled on payment of a certain sum of money. He remained near Philadelphia until 1773.
He was out with the militia in the Revolution one tour of service under General Lacey, in Capt. Alexander Brown's company, and wintered with Washington at Valley Forge. In 1783, after a few years' residence in the Kishacoquillas valley at Greenwood (now Mifflin County, PA), near Lewistown, he moved to the Nittany valley in Center County, where he purchased a tract of land near where Jacksonville is located, his home being a few rods from the Lick Run meetinghouse. He remained there until 1803 when he removed to Venango County and settled in Sugarcreek Township, about four miles north of Franklin. [CAB, 453]
