General Notes: Husband - Matthew Morrow


Soon after his marriage he came to Canton township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, and purchased a farm later occupied by Thomas Allison, where he spent the remainder of his life and reared his family.
He was a pronounced Whig in political views, and one of the earliest members of, and most earnest workers in, the Presbyterian Church at Buffalo. He served as a member of the poor commission of the county for many years.


General Notes: Wife - Elizabeth Weir


Her date of death is given by the source, page 421. Same source, page 1460, states that she died at age sixty-five. But then she would have been too young at the birth of her first child. Some information is in error.
