Hi Joseph,

My line went to Washington Co., PA. where other Love's were already established in 1791.

George and Mary had Eight children, all born in Ireland. Seven children traveled to America : John,George, Thomas, William, Mary, Catherine and Jane. It's assumed that the remaining daughter died in Ireland.

Nancy Love and Benjamin Anderson and their six children: William, Benjamin, Jane (each married in Ireland), Thomas, George and the sixth child, who died during the passage to America.

From New York they traveled to Washington Co. Pa. Benjamin and Nancy bought a farm of two different tracts near Washington, Pa. totaling 100 acres on Brush Run at the Southwest corner of Hopewell Township for 75 pounds cash on January 8, 1791. The land was procured from the Government by Edward Anderson, possible a cousin.

Records show there were Loves and Andersons in Washington, Pa. prior to 1790. Perhaps this had something to do with my ancestors settling there.
