I am searching for my ggrandfather, Richard McClure, who emigrated in 1860 at the latest from somewhere in PA to Sangamon (Springfield) Co., Illinois, and then to Wayne Co., Illinois where he married first Sarah Jane Campbell (who died) and then Delilah Boon. He was born abt. 1830 in PAand died in 1904. He was a Presbyterian, his father was born in PA, and he supposedly attended Waynesburg College in Greene Co., PA, although I can find no record of it yet. He taught school in Illinois.
Any help is appreciated in information concerning the Richard McClure in this Derry, Westmoreland, PA 1850 census.
