Well, with all the researching I have done and many others, we have yet to find a William Anthony, cousin to the Indiana County Anthony's, who was supposed to settle in Kittanning around 1770.
We do know, from the 1790 Census, that Philip and Jacob Anthony were in Westmoreland County, Armstrong Township.Jacob settled in what is now Indiana County and Philip settled in around Kittanning Township, Armstrong County.
Jacob Anthony, the Indiana County Anthony's, had a book written on their family.There isn't any information on Philip or William (his cousins) families.
I am still trying to find Philip Anthony's family.I know he had a son, Philip, who married Barbara.That is all.
Just a small word of advice - watch out for William Anthony's!There are a "ton" of William Anthony's, all around the same age and all around the same location.Many married Sarah's - which makes it extremely easy to have the wrong family attachments.Luckily, your William married someone other then Sarah!
Good luck and if I can help, please let me know!
