    There landed in Philadelphia, Penn., about the first of July, 1750, three emigrants of Scotch blood and Presbyterian faith. They came from the County of Londonderry, Ireland. They were brothers, named Andrew Allison, Robert Allison, James Allison. From them have sprung many descendants, who are widely scattered, residing in Pennsylvania and many of the western states. They are mostly Presbyterians. As a family they have been healthy and long lived; the earlier generations were mostly farmers. May professional men were in the later generations.

    509. James Allison, one of the three brothers, settled in Franklin County, Penn.
    510. Andrew Allison settled in Lancaster County, Penn.
    511. Robert Allison resided in Cumberland County, Penn., for some years; then removed to Indiana county where he passed the remainder of his days, and died in 1805. He married, in 1752, Rebecca Beard, who came in the same ship with him across "the deep blue sea". She was a granddaughter of one Charles Stewart (or Stuart), a soldier, who was wounded in the hand at the "Battle of the Boyne".
