Thanks for that tip. I will keep that in the Wallace file. I never heard of them going therre but then I wasn't around then either. As I said, my oral history picks them up in Milford, Pike Co. Pa. I have nothing on the whereabouts of the brothers William and John. Other than that one of them invented a carding machine. So he must have been around the mills. They supposadly had been in the business or their families were in Scotland and carried on with the same line of work here in the states. Sounds reasonable, learn a trade then travel to a new country and practice that trade. Ann On 9/19/06, Helen Marshall <hm2@comcast.net> wrote: > > Mine all came from N Ireland to Cecil Co.

The info I have states that there were 4 brothers,John, William, James and Hugh. William settled near Goshen NY, James near Philadelphia and Hugh in SC. My ancestor John started in Cecil Co MD and then went to Butler Co PA which is the county north of Pittsburg. There were also Wallaces in Beaver Co. which is next to Butler. I have never heard of any of my Wallaces that were weavers. All farmers, store owners, preachers and rable rowsers. There are lots and lots of Wallaces in Ohio. I am related to almost all of them in Morgan and Muskingam Co. When your ancester has 12 kids, this happens. If you have any Wallaces in Ohio, especially in these counties the historical societies are very helpful. Good luck in your hunting. It has taken me 5 years to find Samuel's name and I still can't find his birthdate, his wife's last name or anything about their kids. I still would like more definitive info on Samuel than "thought to be the son of John Wallace."
