Basic Evidence
-
Sarah is mentioned as the husband of several children with Isaac C.
Kelly,
on death certificates, etc.
-
According to the census, she was born about 1828. (Isaac was born
~1815.) (Jen has her full date as June 28, 1828).
-
The first child, Sophia, was born in 1845 in Huntingdon Co, Pa.
according
to her death certificate(?).
-
One of Isaac and Sarah's children (Sarah Kelly) was born in Black Log
Valley,
which runs through Cromwell and Shirley Townships as well as Juniata
Co,
according to her obituary. (That birthplace is somewhat surprising,
since
Isaac and Sarah appeared in Indiana County, Wheatfield Township in
1850,
and in Cambria Co, Blacklick Township from 1860 on.)
-
Sarah's death certificate lists her parents as Lawrence and Elizabeth
McMullen.
Lawrence would then have to be born <= 1810.
-
Isaac may have married an Agnes McMullen first in 1839, and had one or
two children with her; certainly Nancy Jane Kelly. Another child,
Hugh Kelly, is said to have been a stepson, and not a blood son.
-
Jen Amrhein says, "There is a Lawrence McMullen that died circa
1812-18.
This Lawrence is definitely the brother of Enos and not married. Henry
Wilson Story has part of his will in his book BUT he got it wrong. He
thought
the children that Lawrence was listing was his own children
(Lawrence'sbecause
his bro Enos /Eneas named his one son Lawrence, Jr.)".
-
Lawrence, Jr. would seem to be a candidate for our Lawrence.
(This
appears to be the same Laurence
McMullen, Jr. below, whom I had in my notes as residing in "Sherly
Twp, Cambria Co", which is probably really Huntingdon Co.) He's
listed
in the 1830 census as having 3(?) girls age 0-5.
A Possible Identification of Lawrence
Enos McMullen is mentioned in many records. A good summary is

McMullens in Cambria County
Miscellaneous McMullens
-
Hugh McMullen is mentioned in History of Clearfield County
Pennsylvania,
1887 by Lewis Cass Aldrich" The first county courthouse was built
starting
in 1814: "The first term of court at which a grand and traverse
juries
were called was held in December, 1822, with Hon. Charles Huston,
presiding.
The grand jurors summoned on that occasion were ... Hugh McMullen ..."
(Hey, that's Clearfield Co??)
-
A Laurence
McMullen, Jr. residing in Sherly Twp., Cambria Co (presumably - but do
they mean Shirley Twp, Huntingdon Co?) was mentioned in his father's
wills
of 1808 and 1812 in the Cambria County records.
-
1870 census: Simon McMullen, age=35, farmer, wife Cecelia age 32 in
Clearfield
Township, Cambria Co, Pa., children Mary, Eujora(?), Francis, Martina.
-
? census: Simon McMullen, age=27, laborer, wife Bridget.
Descendants of James McMullen
Matthew and Jacob McMullen are mentioned in the church records of
Father
Gallitzin of Cambria Co, who sometimes travelled to Huntingdon County
for
baptisms and weddings apparently. A number of people have listed
them as children of James McMullen (< 1790-14 April 1823, Black Log
Valley) and Ann Donoughe (24 Nov 1777, Bedford Co, Pa-16 May 1840,
Allegheny
Twp, Cambria Co). (She is said to be daughter of John Donoughe
(b.
1735 in Londonderry, died 1805) and a woman named Ann. James was
a lumberer and killed by a falling tree. ( I've read that the trees the
Black Log Valley was named after are long gone; perhaps this one had
its
revenge.) Matthew is supposed to be the first McMullen to have moved
from
Black Log Valley to Cambria Co, first to Loretto, later to Chest
Springs,
and he died in St. Augustine. His brothers Hugh (1804-1864) and
James
(1811-1887) also moved there. (There are also sisters Bridget,
Isabella,
Mary, Ann, and Lizzie mentioned in Robert Yeatts' family tree, and
siblings
S.W. and A.L.)
Thus many of the McMullens I've seen in Cambria
Co records for years may be related to us after all.
Thomas Stobie's family tree states that James's
father was Peter, but the only source offered is an LDS file, which is
often worse than no proof. I must contact him.
There are 50 McMullens listed in the cemetery
records
of St. Michael Cemetery, Loretto, Allegheny Township (online at http://www.rootsweb.com/~pacambri/cems/AllStMichael09.html
), including several who were of similar age to James and could be more
relatives originally from Huntingdon Co: Samuel McMullen 1759-1853, m.
Susan Logan 1769-1851; Margaret 1794-1880; James 1799-1847, m. 1823
Rebecca
McDermitt 1802-1887.

Wills
Will of 11-5-1803: "I, Jacob Cherry of Sinking Valley Huntingdon County
[now Blair Co?] ... appoint Peter
McMullen and Simon Litsinger to be my lawful and only executors to
this my last will and testament". The web page says, there is a
strong
possibility that [Jacob] is buried in St. Luke's McMullen Catholic
Cemetery
in Sinking Valley. [now Blair Co?] ""the records to St. Lukes are
gone" according to the Blair Co Histo Soc. "The Peter
McMullens
and Jacob and Andrew Cherry are mentioned in 'Catholics Trails West' as
Catholics in Sinking Valley at the end of the 18th century"
Web page http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/b/a/n/Judith-A-Banja/FILE/0003page.html
quotes the introduction to the book
St. Luke’s Church and McMullen Catholic Cemetery. Altoona, PA: Blair
County Genealogical Society:
"The land for the cemetery was bequeathed in a will to the
Catholics of Sinking Valley by Peter McMullen. Peter died on July 16,
1809.
St. Luke’s Church was built in 1840, but Catholic missionaries had been
saying Mass in the homes of Mordicai McClain and Peter McMullen as
early
as 1799. The church was closed in 1916."

Saint Luke's Cemetery
"A cemetery in Sinking Valley also dates to the eighteenth
century. Peter
McMullen, who founded Saint Luke's Cemetery, arrived in the summer
of 1784. When McMullen died, he deeded that part of his plantation as a
burial ground for "Roman Catholics and no others." Revenue from
McMullen's
cemetery was sent to Father Gallitzin." from http://www.newcolonist.com/cemeteries.html
The article also talks of Prince Demetrius Augustine Gallitzin, a
Catholic
priest, whose name is preserved in the town in Cambria Co. He was
the first pastor of Loretto, Pa. One site says this is near
Altoona, another says St. Luke's church is near Laurelville.
Peter
McMullen
of Sinking Valley, Blair Co
"In 1787 the original township of Tyrone contained the following free
holders:
... Peter McMullen", from BIOGRAPHICAL AND PORTRAIT CYCLOPEDIA OF BLAIR
COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA by SAMUEL T. WILEY AND W. SCOTT GARNER on the web
at http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/pa/blair/history/wileyhistory03.txt
"This township, whose territory is better known as Sinking Valley, is
bounded
on the north by Snyder township and Huntingdon county; on the east, by
Huntingdon county and Catharine and Frankstown townships; on the south
by Frankstown township; and on the west by Logan and Antis townships."
"The first Catholic settlers in Sinking Valley appear to have been
John
McGuire and Peter McMullen from the Big Pipe Creek Settlement
in
Western Maryland, near Taneytown, a mission stop of the Conewago
priest."
From p. 637 of Catholic Trails West, quotation found at http://www.mcn.org/2/noel/Letters2.htm
Tyrone Township today is west of Huntingdon city, Huntingdon Co., so
not in the immediate vicinity of Tell Township.

Additional in Baree, Henderson, Huntingdon, Tyrone, Warrior's Mark
-
1840: Hugh McMullen and Jane McMullen.
are listed
in the 1840 census in Huntingdon county PA in Fell (Tell) township on
page
249 above and below Isaac Kelly(!). My current theory: Jane could
be the widow of Lawrence. In 1840, she's 50-60 => born
1780-1790.

Correlated Individuals in Huntingdon Co
G0 (generation 0), born <= 1760
-
Samuel, b. <= 1755 re 1800 census. Had son and daughter born
1784-1790.
Could be the father of Samuel, b. 1804, but not clear. Could be
the
Samuel, Jr. paid taxes in 1810 in ? twp. He appears only once -
could
he haved died ca. 1810?
-
Lawrence, b <= 1755, single (re 1800 census). Jen says his
will
says he was single and had a brother Enos, who had a son he named
Lawrence,
Jr. He died circa 1812-18.
-
He's probably the "L." in 1810 census, b. 1766-1785.
-
James Mullon, 1790 census could be a McMullen. He was b. <=
1774,
but likely <= 1754 since has many children.
-
Peter resides 1787 in the original township of Tyrone, Blair Co, once
Huntingdon
Co, founded St. Luke's church, could be related.
G1, born 1761-1780
-
John 1 in 1790 census, b. <= 1774, but probably <= 1768, since he
has two children in 1790.
-
William in 1790 census, b. <= 1774, but probably <= 1768, since
he
has two children in 1790.
-
There's a Lawrence who paid taxes in Tell Township1810-1833. Some
of the entries could refer to Lawrence in G0, but not all if he died
before
1818. Could be Lawrence, Jr., son of Enos??
-
Lawrence, of 1830 census, Dublin Twp, b. 1760-1770 is presumably one of
the 2 guys above. (Lawrence, Jr. is listed elsewhere, so this is
not he.)
-
There are tax entries for Lawrence, Jr. in 1825 and 1829 in addition to
just plain Lawrence, above.
-
Lawrence, Jr. in 1830 census is b. 1800-1810, and has 2 daughters 0-5.
-
"J." in 1810 census, b. 1766-1785, could be G0 or G1. Could be
John
McMullen b <= 1774 above, or James, paid taxes 1810 below.
-
"H." in 1810 census, b. 1766-1785, could be G0 or G1. The only
"H"
that occurs in other records is Hugh. (???)
-
Hugh, paid taxes 1816, appears only this once.
-
James 1, paid taxes 1810.
-
James is listed in the 1820 census, b <= 1775, 8 children.
-
But also second James in 1820 census, b <= 1775, 7 children, listed
near John and William. (And there's a third James, b. 1775-1794)
-
James 2, paid taxes 1810.
-
"Widow", paid taxes 1810
-
Samuel, Jr., paid taxes 1810 = b. <= 1790. Could perhaps be
the
Samuel in G0 listed in the census 1800.
-
John 2 (shoemaker), paid taxes 1816.
-
John McMillen is listed in the 1820 census, b <= 1775, 5
children.
Might be John 1.
-
But also John McMullen is listed in the 1820 census, b <=
1775,
had 2 sons < 10. This one is listed next to William.
-
Jane (married name) McMullen, b. 1780-1790 re 1840 census, where she is
listed next to Isaac Kelly, and near Hugh McMullen, b. 1800-1810, who
could
be her son. She has 4 children age categories 0-15 in her
household.
-
Polly (widow) McMullen, b. 1779-1780 re 1830 census. Age and
children
make it possible she's widow of John McMullen, who appeared in 1820
census
but not 1830.
G2, born 1781-1810
-
Hugh McMullen, b. 1800-1810 re 1840 census, could be son of nearby Jane
McMullen, b. 1780-1790. No wife or children listed.
-
Hugh McMullen, b. 1800-1810 re 1830 census, possibly distinct from
above
Hugh. Three women living w him, ages 15-20 (could be wife, but
too
young to be mother of the other 2), 5-10, and 0-5. They may be
younger
sisters living with the same bachelor Hugh.
-
Samuel S., b. 1804 re 1850 census,
buried St.
Mary's Catholic Church, Shade Valley, Cromwell Twp. Too young
to be the Samuel in the tax lists 1810.
-
Sarah Hegie. Wife of Samuel McMullen, b. 1809, buried St.
Mary's Catholic Church, Shade Valley, Cromwell Twp
-
Enos, b. 20 Jul 1810, d.6 Jul 1880, bu. Orbosonia, Huntingdon Co., Pa,
m. Cassander Gorsuch, listed in online family tree at http://www.gendex.com/~guest/tps120/strob/d0001/g0000096.html.
First daughter = Mary, b. 1835, Martha Ann b. 1836, next listed birth
is
1843, therefore matches:
-
Ennis in 1840 census is b. 1800-1810, has wife age 20-30, two daughters
0-5.
-
William I/J Tell Twp taxes1820/21, notation "son", maybe of Lawrence),
1822, 1825, 1829, 1832 (two Williams mentioned)
-
William, Tell Twp taxes "son of J", 1829, 1832 (two Williams mentioned)
-
William in 1820 census, b. 1794-1804, had 1 son of < 10. Next
line is John McMullen, who is the right age to be his father.
-
William in 1830 census, b. 1800-1810, could be same man. Overlap
is 1804-1810, if you're willing to believe both are accurate.
-
William in 1850 census, b. 1796, m. Nancy
-
On the other hand in 1840 we have William age 40-50, b. 1790-1800 w
kids
0-5 up to 15-20, but William in 1830 has no kids??
-
But also 1840 William, age 20-30 = b. 1810-1820, one child 0-5.
-
William Tell Twp taxes "single freeman" is 3rd William in 1832
-
William L.S. and William L.W. Tell Twp taxes 1835.
-
John M.(saw mill) Tell Twp taxes 1816, 1818, 1820/21, 1822, 1825, 1829
("miller") = b. <= 1796.
-
Ennis Tell Twp taxes 1820/1821, 1822, 1825 (now "Enos"), 1829 ("Enis
shoemaker"),
1832 ("Enos"), 1832 ("Enos", also "Mary Jane McMullin 5 yr old 20th May
1831 Daughter of Lawrence McMullin, Jr. "), 1833. Taxable
1820
=> b. <=1800.
-
"Widow", Tell Twp taxes 1829 with 228 acres - possibly widow of James?
-
Ann, Tell Twp taxes 114 acres (same amount as James heirs in 1825), 1833
-
Ann in the 1830 census is b. 1770-1780, age and number of children
could
make her widow of James (and therefore the widow above).
-
Margaret McMullen, Cromwell Twp, b. 1780-1790, she's 50-60, has 10
people
ages 0-30 living with her. Age matches wife of Lawrence from 1830
census but kids don't match well.
-
Eneas Tell Twp taxes 1832 single freeman - different from Enos, also
1832?
(1833 there are 2 Enos entries) => b. <= 1812.
-
Eunis or Ennis 1840 census, age M 30-40 = b. 1800-1810, F 40-50, b.
1790-1800.
-
Enos, 1850 census, b. 1804, m. Casandra.
-
James, Tell Twp taxes 1832
-
James in 1820 census, b. 1775-1794
G3, born >= 1811
-
Thomas, 1850 census, Shirley Twp , b 1814, m. Ann
-
William, 1850 census, Shirley Twp, b. 1821
-
David, 1850 census, Tell Twp, b. 1819

probably
no relation, but you never know.]
