General Notes: Husband - Samuel Sibbet


He was associated with Robert Emmet in the Irish uprising. He was obliged to leave Ireland because of his decided political convictions, his pronounced sentiments causing a price of fifty guineas to be put on his head. He was connected with the Free-masons, and with his friends helping him out of the country on his way to America he arrived secretly at Baltimore in the early part of 1800. A few months later his wife, having disposed of their personal effects, crossed the ocean with her family, then consisting of three children, also landing at Baltimore. Having heard of the Scotch-Irish settlement in the Cumberland valley, in Pennsylvania, they proceeded to the head of the Big Spring, where they were welcomed by numerous Presbyterian friends.
