1	1790 United States Federal Census, Mifflin Co, PA, page 2. Page not dated. Family headed by Hamilton Grims: 3 males <16, 1 male 16 or over, 3 females. * Note: The females could be Sarah Hoge (McCullough/Graham) and her two daughters with William McCullough (Letitia and Anna). Her son George is one of the younger males. The other two young males could be sons of Hamilton Grims (Graham) from an earlier marriage. * No listing for a Hamilton Graham is found in the Ancestry.com indexing of Pennsylvania in any year. * Also on this page are families headed by Robert Lyttle and by Andrew Lyttle. Robert Lyttle is a son-in-law of Sarah Hoge and first husband George McCullough. The Robert Lyttle listed on this page would probably be a generation older.

This corresponds to Sarah Hoge (Graham), age ~47; son George 12, daughter Jane 9; Letitia McCullough would be 21 and Anna McCullough 18, so one of them, more likely Letitia, is no longer at home.

Note: Ancestry.com indexes this page under Union Twp. The page includes entries from 3 townships, & Sarah Hoge is listed in Milfort Twp. Sarah Hoge would be ~57 years old. The children listed correspond to George Graham (age 22), Robert Graham (age 18), Jane Graham (age 20), and Anna (age 29) McCullough (Letitia McCullough married in 1802).

Compiler Leonard Lytle includes "a copy of an original document belonging to Mrs. Lettitia A. Harnish of Alexandria, Pa. She is the granddaughter of Robert and Letitia Lytle. It was written by James McKee Lytle, their son. For five years prior to Lettitia Lytle's death in 1864 she was blind." Her statement: George McCullough came from Ireland to America prior to the Revolution....was drafted about 1774. (In Northumberland) he met with Jno. McKee and others from Tuscarora Valley, ...& there he met Sarah Hoagg, in 1775 whom he married, and resided there when he again was called into service, about 1776. , He served his time, returned home to farming, until again called out in 1778. Hugh Gray was with him in '78. Lettitia was born in Feb. '79, after his return from the war. He died in Sept. '84 leaving but two children living, Lettitia and Ann, the latter 2 years younger than the older. "My mother again married, a man the name of Hamilton Grimes, in the year of '89, by whom she had two sons and a daughter, named Robert, George and Jane, and lived on in Tuscarora Valley to her death in 1829 or 1830. I married Robert Lytle on 6th July 1802 and lived with him until August 1847 when he died at Hollidaysburg Blair County, Pa. My sister Ann McCulloch married Moses Sturgeon in 1800 and lived with him until 1850, when he died. She died in 1851, both died in Shelby County, Ohio."

Source Notes

• Birth date of Anna McCullough as about 1781 is derived from the document belonging to Mrs. Lettitia A. Harnish, granddaughter of Robert & Letitia Lytle, being the statement of Lettitia Lytle, widow of Robert Lytle. (See source above "Descendants of Robert Hogg..." by Egle, footnotes by Leonard Lytle.) Lettitia Lytle, daughter of George McCullough, says in her statement that he left two children living (suggesting there may have been others who did not survive), Lettitia and Ann, "the latter 2 years younger than the older." Letitia McCullough was born in 1779 per the Egle source.

1	1790 United States Federal Census, Chester Co. PA, Oxford Twp, pg. 3 on Ancestry.com. Census not dated. George McCullough head of a household that includes 3 males under age 16, 1 male over age 16, and 3 females. * Note: The George McCullough entry ("31300") might be a first marriage of George McCullough, later the spouse of Sarah Hoge. The 3 boys in the census are not known to be Sarah's; Sarah did have 2 daughters, but the Hoge family resided in Tuscarora Valley for all of her lifetime, so we expect this entire entry, (if it indeed in the George McCullough who married Sarah Hoge,) to be a prior marriage. No mention is made in the Egle source of his being previously married. This appears to be the closest match, from 5 George McCulloughs listed in PA in 1790.Listed in the same township are the households of a Robert McKee (12200); Robert Hogg (14200); William Robinson (10100); John Robinson (14200). These surnames are those of the spouses of the children of Robert Hoge, though not these individuals. The cluster of names suggests that this could be the community of residence of Robert Hoge's family. (1790 census numbers indicate males under 16, males over 16, females, other free persons (?), & slaves.)
