General Notes: Husband - Andrew Lynn

---

When he was very young, his father settled on Big Redstone, in Redstone township, on the farm which James M. Lynn later owned. Soon after settling there his father purchased the land owned later by Denton Lynn from the Indians. He added to his first purchase a farm of 130 acres, owned by one Pearce. The deed was made in 1790, and bears the name of Thomas Mifflin, first Governor of Pennsylvania. Upon this tract were some of the largest locust-trees in the state, one, measuring twenty feet in circumference, and known to be nearly two centuries old at the time, was possibly the progenitor of all the living locusts of that region. The farm also contained the remains of "Fort Sedgy." The tract was known by that name. The fort consisted of a strong stone wall about four feet high, built in the shape of a horseshoe. Many relics were found here, such as tomahawks, skeletons, etc. One human skeleton there found measured eight feet in length.
