His wife's name was Maria born about 1800 also in Pennsylvania. I know from the 1850 census that John and Maria were living in Shippensburg Twp. in Cumberland County and had the following children: James, born about 1826 John, born about 1828 Mary, born about 1831 Sarah, born about 1834 Margaret, born 1837 Amelia, born December 14, 1840 Robert, born about 1843 By 1860 John had moved to Delaware County, Ohio, and most of his children were married. Margaret and Robert were still living at home. At that time his wife was listed as Martha, which was either a second wife or a misspelling of Maria.
