I have seen two proposed parentages for Prudence on various websites. One hypothesis is that she was the daughter of Robert Armstrong and Jane Young, who were married in Cumberland Co. PA in 1786. The other (more common but less plausible?) claim is that she is the daughter of Benoni Armstrong and Elizabeth McCaskey. I would greatly welcome any evidence anyone could provide regarding the correct parentage of the Prudence Armstrong who married Alexander McCoy in Indiana in 1831.
