2G:10 There are 1800, 1807, and 1810 ‘sightings’ of another Daniel (or David?) McA/Ninch, |
|
|
|
born 1774-1784 [Ireland? Pennsylvania?] in western Pennsylvania, discussed in the article |
|
|
“Daniel (or David?) McA/Ninch, early western Pennsylvania (second generation?)” [10]. |
|
Second Generation? Third Generation? John McAninch born 23 Feb. 1821 |
|
|
|
And there is a fifth ‘Second Generation’ John McAninch (or is this a ‘Third Generation’ John?): |
|
2G:11 Another John McAninch was born 23 Feb. 1821, in Pennsylvania (probably born in |
|
|
|
Armstrong County, since Clarion County not set off until 1839). This John McA. b.1821 |
|
|
married Isabella Walls, ca.1845, probably in Clarion County; John and Isabella had nine |
|
|
children, and lived their lives in Rimersburg, Clarion County. John died 26 Apr. 1902, |
|
|
Isabella died 18 Sept. 1908, and both are buried in the Rimersburg Cemetery. |
|
|
So, who are the parents of this John McAninch (John, b.1821)? A quick look at the family |
|
|
records of the six ‘First Generation’ McA/Ninch men rules out (almost) all of them: |
|
|
a. |
Daniel McAninch (1G:1), born 1750-1755, and William McAninch (1G:4), b.bef.1765 |
|
|
|
both went to Kentucky, and all ten of their son’s lines are known [no John b.1821] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
b. |
John McAninch (1G:2), born ca.1760 [Armstrong County pioneer], and his three son’s |
|
|
|
families are known: John McAninch’s sons are the ‘Three Brothers’ William (2G:7), |
|
|
|
John (2G:8), and Henry (2G:9), in the Jefferson County history books [no John b.1821] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
c. |
Archibald McNinch (1G:3) went to Ohio in 1816 [no John b.1821 in Pennsylvania] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
d. |
William McAninch (1G:5) had only one possible child, a son (or grand-son?), |
|
|
|
a male born 1810-1820 [born before the 1820 census] [could this be John b.1821(?); |
|
|
|
only if John’s 1821 birthdate is incorrect (Rimersburg Cemetery records)] |
|
|
|
|
|
|
e. |
Henry McAninch (1G:6) had 3 daughters, no sons, and went to Ohio [no John b.1821] |
|
|
A quick look at the family records of the four ‘Second Generation’ McAninch’s uncovers |
|
|
the only other possible ‘father candidate’ [Henry McAninch (2G:9), born 16 Feb. 1802] |
|
|
f. |
William H. McAninch (2G:7), b.1783-1784 (son of John McAninch, 1G:2), married |
|
|
|
Isabel Hopkins, and founded the ‘Jefferson County McAninch’s. William and Isabel |
|
|
|
had twelve children, including son John A. McAninch, b. 1806-1807, Brady’s Bend, |
|
|
|
Armstrong (now Clarion) County, who married Maria Reed and raised 8 children in |
|
|
|
Jefferson County [William and Isabel did not have another son John b.1821] |
