General Notes: Husband - Joseph Clokey

---

He left Ireland at the time of the Rebellion of '98, immediately after the battle of Belany-Hinch. "I was quite a boy at the time," wrote the late Samuel Barnett, of Springfield, in 1867, "but remember hearing all about the case. He escaped almost by miracle to this country." Mr. Clokey's daughter Eliza came subsequently to America, as well.

He removed from where he lived near Hanover church [Dauphin County, Pennsylvania?] to Canonsburg, Washington County, about 1813 or 1814.
