He married a German girl named Fredricks from the Maryland colony. Their son married an English girl and had 4 sons. These 4 arrived in Pittsburgh and later moved to Ft Steuben.

One of the brothers had a son named Isaiah...."

Another traditon states" our progenitor when a young man was in Wm Penn colony. They kept moving west with each generation. My ggfather and his 3 brothers flatboated down the Ohio River to Ft. Steuben (now Steubenville, OH) and settled on an adjoining section of land for protection against Indians."
