Jeremiah Darby Hushen, Sr.
DNA tests and family trees say that our branch of the family is related to Jeremiah Darby Hushen, Sr. He could even be a great-great-great-grandfather, but I've yet to prove that with documentary evidence. Here's what I can prove, based on early research done by new cousins BK and BH789: • In the 1870 US Census for PA, Darby Husher (Hushen) lives in Upper Merion, Montgomer County, PA. He is 80, born 1790, retired laborer, cannot write, born Ireland, parents of foreign birth, not a citizen. Also in the household are Mary, 63, born 1807, keeping house; Martin, 18, born Ireland, at home; Thomas, 16, born Ireland; farm laborer; John, 4, born NJ. Nearby are son Darby with wife Margaret and family. https://www.ancestry.com/interactive/7163/4278812_00586/10333390?backurl=http%3a%2f%2fsearch.ancestry.com%2fcgi-bin%2fsse.dll%3f_phsrc%3dMZe2%26_phstart%3dsuccessSource%26usePUBJs%3dtrue%26db%3d1870usfedcen%26gss%3dangs-d%26new%3d1%26rank%3d1%26msT%3d1%26MS_AdvCB%3d1%26gsln%3dhush...
