General Notes: Husband - Alexander McClintock

---

He came to Pittsburgh from Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, about 1813, being engaged in the freighting business by means of "Conestoga" wagon teams between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. These were impressed into the service of the United States Government during the War of 1812. Soon after arriving in Pittsburgh, with his family and household effects in three "Conestoga" wagons, he opened a shop for general blacksmithing on Water street, near Penn. His shop, tavern and frame residence alongside lay within the confines of old Fort Pitt. He also operated a ferry from the "Point" to Temperanceville, on the South Side, where the road to Little Washington started, and where later he took up his residence upon a farm.

For a while, he operated for his friend, Samuel Black, of Williamsport, later Monongahela City, a ferry from the foot of Smithfield street to the south bank of the Monongahela river, but he finally purchased the ferry for himself.
