General Notes: Husband - William Cummins

He came to America during the latter part of the eighteenth century, settling first on the banks of Little Chickies creek, in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. He later came to Mifflin County, where he purchased three hundred and sixty-four acres, on which he built a cooper shop and followed his trade. Both he and his wife died on the farm.

In addition to his home farm he owned a large tract in Huntingdon County, Jackson township, on which he placed his son Robert as manager.
