Mary Haben was my great grandmother. I am taking my information from a book handed down from my family. It's titled "Pioneer McCLure Families of Monongahela Valley. It's mostly McClure with the Mitchell, McKnight, McAllister, Denny and Butler families added.

Most of the McClures are buried in Pittsburgh with the Sill's of Ft Sill and the Myers family of Ft Myers. Col Joshua Sill was directly under General Ormsby Mcknight Mitchell in taking the train "The General" out of Atlanta during the Civil War. An interesting story in of itself.
