Ireland. He immigrated to America in 1843 and resided in South Butler Twp., Butler Co., Pa. He was (1) married to Miss McGaugh 2) John King (1672-1747) was born in Dungannon, Tyrone, Ulster, Ireland. He was the father of six children. He and his family later immigrated to Adams County, Pennsylvania. May we all receive a fantastic Christmas gift of an ancestor or 2!!! Cheers~ Teena
