General Notes: Husband - David Saxton

---

He was born in Ireland, and when a young man came to America, remaining some years in eastern Pennsylvania, and in 1796 came to Washington County, Pennsylvania, locating in what is now Hanover township, about two and one-half miles northeast of Florence, near the old site of Fort Dillo. Here he purchased and moved upon forty acres of land.
He and his wife passed their lives on their pioneer farm, in a rude log cabin, which stood for several years afterward. He was a farmer, also carrying on a distillery, a common practice among the early settlers. In politics he was a Whig. He and his wife both died at an advanced age.
