Searching for info on Joseph SIMPSON b c 1788, Ireland d aft 1870 Wayne
Co., Pennsylvania, married Sarah (Laraha) ALLEN b c 1798 Ireland (she may be
part
of an ALLEN family in PA from IRE and connected with the Thomas LEE family).
They emigrated between dau. birth in 1818 and 1824 when another dau. was
born. Jos. was in the 1830 Sterling Twp., Wayne Co., PA census. Jos. and
Sarah are buried in Glen Dyberry Ceme., Wayne Co., PA.

They had 9 children:
Eliz. b 1818 Co. Tyrone?, Ireland m Thomas BORTREE II
Wm., b ?
Jane Ann b 1824 PA m Christopher BEELER/BUEHLER
James b c 1825 PA
John b c 1828 PA
Thomas b 1830 PA m Louisa A. ENGLE
Aberham b c 1833 PA m Mary Jane ? had child Hannah b 1868 Wayne Co., PA
Daniel b c 1838 PA
Sarah b c 1848 PA

In the book 'Biographical Commemorative of North East Pennsylvania' the
information was given that dau. Elizabeth Simpson was born in Co. Tyrone.
(She married Thomas BORTREE who was also born in Tyrone but another of
their sons said Co. Antrim).

The birth dates are all 'circa' since they came from ages given in the US
Census of Pennsylvania 1850, and it also shows Joseph and Sarah were born
in Ireland.

Any info appreciated.
