- Birth Notes
- Baptism: March 23, 1843, Churchtown Presbyterian Church, Tamlaght, Co. Londonderry, Ireland (Source: Churchtown Presbyterian Church records, Tamlaght, Co Londonderry.)
Family letters state that James was born in the year 1845, however, no record of his birth or baptism is found in that year. Although it is
possible that he was born in 1845 (and the child born
in 1843 died) and his baptism was not recorded in the
Churchtown Presbyterian Church, I believe the 1843
date is accurate and for whatever reason he chose to say he was born in 1845. Other souces give his year of birth as 1847.
He died at the age of 77 on November 6th, 1920 in
Pinebrook Farm, Colmar, Pennsylvania. His burial was on November 9th, 1920 in
Lot 647 Everglade,West Laurel Hill Cemetery, Bala-Cynwyd, PA.
