General Notes: Husband - Amasa Prindle


He and his wife were natives of Massachusetts and Connecticut respectively. [HEC 1884, BS 78] They were natives of Connecticut and Massachusetts respectively. [HEC 1884, BS 94]

He settled in Harbor Creek Valley, Erie County, Pennsylvania, in 1795, buying land at 20 cents per acre, and working there three years, preparing for his family, whom he brought from Buffalo over the frozen lake. It is stated that once he raised 500 bushels of wheat, and, on trying to dispose of it to parties at Erie City, was hooted for his pains, and was asked "what on earth they could do with it." He subsequently sold this farm and bought another of Judy Colt, further up the hills. Through the destruction of the records, when the Erie Court House was burned, he was compelled to pay twice for the same property.

He was by trade a shoe-maker and currier, but mainly followed farming.
