Person:Ann McSwain (1)

Identity of Archibald Clendenin's Wife

Some sources indicate that the wife of Archibald Clendenin's wife was Ann Ewing. This is an error based upon a story told from William EWING of the Greenbrier Massacres (also referred to as the "Clendenin Massacres" in Greenbrier County, Virginia on 15 July, 1763), who was the half-brother of Jeanet Ann. Her mother, Margaret Sargeant married 1st, Unknown McSwain (father of Ann McSwain who married this Archibald Clendenin), who died abt. 1739. Margaret Sargeant married 2nd, James Ewing, the parents of William Ewing, Ann McSwain's half-brother.
