 http://boards.ancestry.it/thread.aspx?mv=flat&m=1058&p=localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.counties.butler<br>"My g-grandmother was Aryadnie Wigton Albin. She came with her parents Edward D. & Hannah Smith Wigton to Cooper Co, MO from Butler Co, PA between 1865 & 1870. Edward was the son of John Wigton II and Rachel Tawneyhill. Hannah was a sister of Rebecca Ann Smith and their parents were Dan Smith and Rebecca Boston. John Campbell Wigton was the son of William Wigton & Margaret Campbell. William & John II were brothers (also James, and four sisters). Their parents were ''John Wigton I'' and ''Magdalen Covert'' daughter of ''Luke and Cornelia Van Zandt Covert''. Luke's parents were ''Bergon & Annetze Selover Covert''. Cornelia was the granddaughter of ''Resolved Waldren, an original patentee in 1666 of the Harlem Commons City, NY''. John I was the grandson of John Wigton who came from Scotland on "The Cow" ship in 1725 with brothers, Samuel & William. John was b. 1700 & d. 1801 in Bucks Co, PA where he was a early settler in Doylestown. He is buried with his wife Isabel in the Deep Run Presbytarian Cemetery (also called "God's Acre)."
