General Notes: Husband - Aaron Himrod


He was one of the early settlers of Erie County, Pennsylvania.

He served in the Revolutionary army and is credited with service at the battles of Princeton and Trenton, besides other engagements; he received a pension in his latter days. He is said to have been carried to Canada a prisoner by the Indians, but later returned, living in Turbot township, Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, from boyhood until his removal to Erie County about 1798; although after he married in 1789 he moved to the shores of Lake Cayuga in New York, near Trumansburg, where the name is preserved by Himrod's Point. The Indians were troublesome and he returned to Turbot township, where he owned and cultivated a farm. About 1798 he moved to Waterford township, Erie County, settling on a farm there.
