General Notes: Husband - Samuel Van Dyke

---

He was of Scotch descent and became one of the earliest settlers of Marion Township, Butler county, Pennsylvania, where he acquired 300 acres of land. This was in a wild and uncultivated state at the time of his ar-rival and it was necessary for him to make a small clearing before he built a log cabin, which served as the family home for some years. He later built a stone house which was one of the best in all the sur-rounding country at that time. He had three sons and three daughters. [HBC 1909, 1465]
