General Notes: Husband - William McKinley


He emigrated from County Armagh, Ireland, to America about 1825, settling in Erie County, Pennsylvania.

Upon attaining mature age, he decided to try his fortunes across the sea, and so well was he pleased with his new home and so satisfied with the change of environment that he returned to the land of his birth and brought his parents to his American home, as well as his brothers and sisters.
He came to the United States from County Armagh, Ireland, purchased one hundred acres of arable land in Crawford County, Pennsylvania, later sold this and moved to Le Boeuf township, near Waterford, Erie County, Pennsylvania; the tract was known as the Frank Stout farm, and prior to his death he moved to the Matthew Smith farm in the same locality. [GPHWP, 1758]

He had four children with his first wife; with the second there were six children. He lost two sons in the Civil war.
