Notes
Birth
At one time, I had "Somerset" written as the county, but cannot re-verify that.Removed
From W. J. McKnight, A Pioneer Outline History of Northwestern Pennsylvania: embracing the Counties of Tioga, Potter, McKean, Warren, Crawford, Venango, Forest, Clarion, Elk, Jefferson, Cameron, Butler, Lawrence, and Mercer, also a Pioneer Sketch of the Cities of Allegheny, Beaver, Du Bois, and Towanda (Philadelphia: J. B. Lippincott & Co., 1905), https://archive.org/details/pioneeroutlinehi01mckn/; citing I. H. Musser, 1900."In 1806 Levi Hicks, Andrew Overturf, and Samuel Smith settled on lands between the First and the Second Forks, Hicks occupying what in recent time is known as the Shaeffer farm. .. .In 1812 Hicks sold out to Jacob Burge, who had come to the vicinity a year or two previous, and moved up the Bennett's Branch. He (Hicks) made the first raft and floated it down the Sinnemahoning, and was thus the pioneer in an occupation that was the chief industry along that stream for many years."
