• Notes

  From "History of Mercer County, Its Past and Present", 1888 (archive.org) John McLaughlin and Nancy, his wife, both of Irish lineage, came to this township in April, 1800. On the 9th of August, 1801, John died, it being the first death in the township so far as any records show. His widow the next year married Peter Losse, of Ohio.John McLaughlin, son of James and Mary McLaughlin, was born in Ireland about 1758, and was there married May 12, 1790, to Nancy, daughter of Patrick McLaughlin. One child, Patrick, was born in Ireland March 28, 1792, and the following year the parents immigrated to Mifflin County, Penn., where three children were born to them: Mary, February 8, 1794, first married to Andrew Brown and afterward Richard Morford; Henry, who reared a family and went West and died, and William. In 1799 the family removed to Beaver County, Penn., where another son, John, was born the following spring. In April, 1800, John McLaughlin and family settled in West Salem Township, where he died August 9, 1801. He was the first pioneer who died in that township, and he was interred in the neighborhood. His widow married Peter Lossee, December 4, 1802, and removed to Kinsman, Ohio, where she died.
