• Notes

  James, the fourth child of Daniel and Margaret (Laughlin) McCurdy, was born in 1706. In Historical Genealogy, p. 73, he is erroneously spoken of as son of John. He married Polly Cook, and came to America about 1726. He first located on the James River, Vt.; but later, 1731, moved to Pennsylvania. They had four sons: Archibald, the ancestor of the Virginia branch, who married Hannah Watson; James, who went to Franklin County, Pa.; Hugh, who also went to Franklin County; and Robert, who went to Adams County, Pa. source: Blanchard, Henry Percy.
