General Notes: Husband - David Witherow
He was born in Frederick County, Maryland, where he lived until 1812, when he and his brother, Samuel, bought a mill property on Marsh Creek, Cumberland Township, Adams County, Pennsylvania. He lived there for two years, when he purchased a farm where his son, J. Stewart, later lived. He retained his interest in the mill, but his brother having failed, his title was sold, and the purchaser claimed the entire property. This claim was resisted, and after forty years' litigation, was decided in favor of the heirs of David.
He was a mill-wright by trade, and in early life pursued that occupation, but later followed farming.
