He was born May 1, 1756-7. [The same source gives different dates for his birth.]

He came to America in 1791 to join his uncle William Erwin, who had settled in Pennsylvania some years before. In 1793, his wife and children came with the family of John Siggins, and joined him in Pennsylvania. He became a Methodist preacher, and settled in Mercer County, where he died.
