General Notes: Husband - Hugh Wilson

---

He was born in Pennsylvania, somewhere east of the Allegheny Mountains, possibly in Lancaster County, whence many settlers of western Pennsylvania came. But the place of his birth is not known, nor has anything about his youth been ascertained. He married, and two of his children were born before he came over the mountains about 1811 into western Pennsylvania. He settled on Chartiers creek, in Allegheny County near the Washington County line. He was a farmer, a typical patriarch, the father of nine children. He lost his life by the overturning of a load of hay at a bridge over Chartiers creek, while on his way to market at Pittsburgh.
