General Notes: Husband - Patrick Daugherty

---

He was the first permanent settler of Kittanning, Pennsylvania. He was a soldier of the War of 1812, enlisting in Capt. James Alexander's company, which was ordered to Black Rock, New York. He was killed by the Indians at Lake George.

He settled on the northwestern part of the Davison tract, a short distance below where the rolling mill was later located, and above the small run, in 1790, where he resided twenty-two years, during a part of which period he traded with the Indians and others, and transported freight to and from Pittsburgh in a canoe capable of carrying twelve barrels of flour, according to of one of his descendants.
His accounts were kept in pounds, shillings and pence, in Pennsylvania German, probably by his wife. It appears from the entries that he was trading there as early as October, 1793. On the fourth day of that month, Stephen Allen was charged with sundry quantities of cherry, walnut and poplar boards, and about the same time Gollit and Himmig were also charged with divers quantities of the same materials. Those parties, perhaps, resided in Pittsburgh, whither Daugherty transported these articles in his large canoe. It may be interesting to know the prices which those kinds of lumber then brought: 450 feet cherry boards, £1 5s. 6d.; 400 feet walnut boards, 16s.; 700 feet poplar boards £2 5s. 6d. The price of liquors, probably whisky, was two shillings a quart in 1799. Daugherty also kept a ferry between his place and Sloan's on the opposite side of the Allegheny river. The ferriage for one person was sixpence, and the same for one horse.
