  • Notes 
    • William was born in Manor of Maske Settlement, Gettysburg, PA.

      "The Manor of Maske was one of the largest manors in Pennsylvania. The residents of Marsh Creek Settlement (synonymous with Manor of Maske) were all, or virtual all Scotch-Irish. These Scots had lived in Ireland for a century or more. They were convinced that the British Goverment had mistreated them. Many were embitted and had begun coming to Pennsylania and Deleware in the second decade of the eighteenth century. They provided the largest number of pioneer settlers in what are now Cumberland and Franklin Countries, Pennsylvania. In the 1740's, there were many more Scotch-Irish in what is now Adams County, than any other ethic group. The Manor of Maske and the Marsh Creek Settlement was surveyed in January 1766. One early settler, Samuel Gettys, established a tavern in 1761. His son, James laid out a town of 210 lots surrounding the tavern. This town would become known as Gettysburg. Before 1797, many descendants of the Scotch-Irish families, which had first settled there, sold their property to German farmers and had moved away."
