General Notes: Husband - Henry Kinnear


He and his wife settled in Youngsville, Warren County, Pennsylvania, in 1815, and purchased a large tract of land; in 1816 he engaged in the mercantile trade, being the first merchant in that township. He was appointed recorder and commissioner of Warren County by the governor, and also acting justice for several years.

He was an officer in the English army (Light Horse) for about thirty years and was sent to America to purchase horses for the English army. After attending to this commission and making shipment of the horses to England, he took up his residence in America. He obtained a certificate of naturalization in Center County, Pennsylvania, July 17, 1803. He became a merchant by trade and settled in Venango County about 1814. He was one of the first commissioners in Warren County, becoming justice of the peace in 1816, an office he held during the remainder of his life. He was an ardent supporter of the Methodist church for many years, but on account of some difficulties was expelled from the church at one time. Seven years later he repented the course he had taken, and requested that he be reinstated as a member, and that it be known and remembered that he died within the pale of the church and at peace with God. [GPHAV, 284]

He was constable of Venango County, Pennsylvania, in 1810, and received a wound while attempting to apprehend a prisoner from which he never recovered.
