General Notes: Husband - Duncan Swearingen


He occupied a part of his father's large landed estate in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, and engaged in farming and wool growing.


Notes: Marriage

The Rev. David Robinson, a young divine, performed the ceremony. The inexperienced minister, by reason of his excitement, produced an amusing situation by forgetting to pronounce the young couple man and wife.
