General Notes: Husband - Robert Bell


He and his wife were natives of Ireland, who located south of the site of Greensburg, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, prior to the Revolution.

He was born near Belfast, in the north of Ireland, and came to America with two brothers, landing at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. One of the brothers went south, and one remained in eastern Pennsylvania, Robert going first to Centre County, Pennsylvania, and thence to Westmoreland County, where he made a settlement near Sewickley. [HIC 1913, 868]

He came from Ireland and located in the wilderness in Rayne township, Indiana County, Pennsylvania. [HJC 1917 II, 595]
