65 A FAIRLY large proportion of the branches of the McCurdy family residing in America trace back to this Daniel. Several books of McCurdy genealogies have been written. Among them is Historical Genealogy of the McCurdy Family, already referred to. The student of this valuable little work will encounter “Uncle” Neil, and other uncles and aunts so mentioned; and occasionally these terms have been here retained for cross-reference.

Daniel, who probably became heir of the “Cairn,” Ballintoy, was born in 1677, and died in 1747. He married Margaret Laughlin, probably of a Scottish refugee family. The had at least six children: (1) Cecilia, born about 1694, died 1779; (2) Patrick, born 1700, died 1798; (3) Daniel, born 1702; (4) James, born 1706; (5) Margaret, born 1710, died 1810; (6) Neil, born 1711, died 1808. There are some wonderfully long ages here, and the dates appear correct, except that (1) Cecilia may have been born and died ten years later, living between 1704 and 1789, making her birth follow Daniel and precede James.

67 A PIONEER WOMAN:

Death of Mrs. Eliza Hobson – Sketch of Her Career.

Mrs. Eliza Hobson, who departed this life in this city, December 14, 1893, was born in Newark, England, in 1805. She was the daughter of Thomas Turner, a gentleman of means, and was tenderly reared and educated. At the age of 21 she was married to Miles Eyre, a member of a famous cutlery firm. She came from England to St. Louis, Mo., in 1842. Mr. Eyre had preceded his family and established himself in business there, but he caught the Oregon fever, and with his family joined the immigration of 1843. He was drowned at the second crossing of Snake river. This was a severe blow to Mrs. Eyre, who was left with four children and with only limited means, as all of Mr. Eyre’s available funds were in paper money in a belt around his waist. His body was never recovered. After searching as long as they could, they were compelled to push on, as the rest of the train had gone ahead. They wintered at Whitman’s. in the spring of 1844, Dr. McLoughlin, hearing of them through Captain Grant, of Fort Hall, who knew Mr. Eyre in St. Louis, sent three batteaux to bring them to Fort Vancouver, where everything was done for their comfort. Mrs. Eyre afterward located in the Waldo hills, where she lived until 1848, when she and her family went to California. In 1849, in company with her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. John Sinclair, she returned East. Mr. Sinclair died the day before they arrived in New Orleans. After residing with her daughter in Boston for about a year, she, in company with her two sons and youngest daughter, again crossed the plains to Oregon in 1850. Some years later she was married to Mr. William Hobson, of Clatsop, who died in 1879. Five children survive her, Mrs. Mary Sinclair-Davis, of Boston, Mass.; Thomas T. Eyre, of Myers, Fla.; Mrs. Eliza Shepherd, of Portland, Or.; Mrs. C. F. Ray, of Ray’s Landing; and John S. Campbell, a son of her second husband (she having been married three times), also of Ray’s Landing, Or. There are many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. After enduring all the hardships incident to pioneer life, Mrs. Hobson lived to see Oregon one of the finest states, and Portland, which was only a forest when she first ascended the Willamette river, the metropolis of the Northwest. Possessed of more than ordinary intelligence, and thoroughly imbued with a sweetness of disposition and regard for others, Mrs. Hobson endeared herself to all with whom she was associated, and was greatly beloved by her own family, who sincerely mourn her loss. Of her it can truly be said, “She hath done what she could.”

68 A recent letter (1886) from Mr. Patrick McCurdy of the Cairn, Ballintoy, co. Antrim says:

“My ancestors came from Buteshire in Scotland during the reign of Charles II. – the date of their leaving Scotland might be 1666. The story of their voyage to and arrival in Ireland (as handed down to us) is very affecting. . . They landed at Ballintoy, five brothers, four of whom settled in Co. Antrim.

Patrick, or (as the Scotch then pronounced it) Pethric, settled in the Cairn. He had four sons, named, respectively, David, William, John and Daniel.

Daniel was father to my grandfather, who was also named Daniel, and was born about 1750. My father's name was Patrick.

John McCurdy of Ahoghill must have been cousin to my grandfather's father, and of the same generation.

I am now working up to seventy years of age, so that I am amongst the eldest of the living McCurdys.

The same address as given above will find my brother Archy McCurdy, my cousin John McCurdy and myself. We are on the very ground on which our great forefathers trod.”

93 ANOTHER PIONEER GONE.

The old pioneers of Oregon, those who have by their energy and indomitable perseverance cleared the trackless forests and prepared a place for coming generations in so goodly a county as ours, are fast passing away. It is but a short time since that Father Waller was called from this earth. Father Stratton soon followed, and now it becomes our painful duty to chronicle the death of another good man. On Thursday night, July 31st, at 11 o’clock, at his residence in Salem, James Campbell died at the advanced age of 66 years. Mr. Campbell was born in Greenville, Kentucky, on the 6th day of April in the year of 1807. From this place at an early age he moved to Boone county, Missouri, where he lived until the year 1846. In that year he started across the plains for Oregon, which State he reached some time in 1847. He settled near Salem, where he remained until the year 1859 when he moved to Puget Sound. After a residence in Puget Sound of seven years he returned to Oregon, settled near Salem where he lived until the time of his death.

The funeral will take place to-day at 11 o’clock from the Pleasant Grove Church on Mill creek. “Uncle Jimmy,” as he was affectionately called was respected and beloved by those who knew him best, and all feel that a good man has left us."

99 As the reader has already learned, Mr. Buchanan had two very promising younger brothers, one of whom died five years before he went abroad, and the other was living and in apparently good health when he left the country. The elder of these two, William Speer Buchanan, died at Chambersburg in his 22d year, on the nineteenth of December, 1827, a few months after his admission to the bar. He had graduated at Princeton in 1822, and studied his profession at Chambersburg and at the law school in Litchfield, Connecticut. His father died while he was still at Princeton: and a letter from his mother to his brother James, written in 1821, which lies before me, gives indications of his early character.

MRS. BUCHANAN TO HER SON JAMES.
July 3d, 1821.

MY DEAR JAMES:–. . . . . A letter from William came to hand on the 11th of June, in which he expressed considerable anxiety to return home, that he might once again see his father and receive his last benediction; but upon receiving the melancholy information of his death, his desire of coming home is subsided. I am highly gratified by the reception from him of a letter of the 18th, in which is exhibited a resignation to and acquiescence in the will of Providence, together with appropriate sentiments on that melancholy occasion, far beyond his years. For this I bless the Giver of every good and perfect gift. Hoping you may be ever the care of an indulgent Providence, and all your conduct regulated by His unerring wisdom, I subscribe myself your affectionate

MOTHER.

Buchanan, William Speer (I131)
 
100 AUTOBIOGRAPHY, when it exists, usually furnishes the most interesting and reliable information of at least the early life of any man. Among the papers of Mr. Buchanan, there remains a fragment of an autobiography, without date, written however, it is supposed, many years before his death. This sketch for it is only a sketch, ends with the year 1816, when he was at the age of twenty-five. I shall quote from it, in connection with the events of this part of his life, adding such further elucidations of its text as the other materials within my reach enable me to give.

The following is the account which Mr. Buchanan gives of his birth and parentage:

“My father, James Buchanan, was a native of the county Donegal, in the kingdom of Ireland. His family was respectable; but their pecuniary circumstances were limited. He emigrated to the United States before the date of the Definitive Treaty of Peace with Great Britain; having sailed from_______in the brig Providence, bound for Philadelphia, in 1783. He was then in the twenty-second year of his age. Immediately after his arrival in Philadelphia, he proceeded to the house of his maternal uncle, Mr. Joshua Russel, in York county. After spending a short time there, he became an assistant in the store of Mr. John Tom, at Stony Batter, a country place at the foot of the North Mountain, then in Cumberland (now in Franklin county.)

He commenced business for himself, at the same place, about the beginning of the year 1788; and on the 16th of April, in the same year, was married to Elizabeth Speer. My father was a man of practical judgment, and of great industry and perseverance. He had received a good English education, and had that kind of knowledge of mankind which prevented him from being ever deceived in his business. With these qualifications, with the facility of obtaining goods on credit at Baltimore at that early period, and with the advantages of his position, it being one of a very few spots where the people of the western counties came with pack horses loaded with wheat to purchase and carry home salt and other necessaries, his circumstances soon improved. He bought the Dunwoodie farm for £1500 in 1794, and had previously purchased the property on which he resided at the Cove Gap.

I was born at this place on the 23d of April, 1791, being my father's second child. My father moved from the Cove Gap to Mercersburg, a distance of between three and four miles, in the autumn of 1796, and began business in Mercersburg in the autumn of 1798. For some years before his death, which occurred on the 11th of June, 1821, he had quite a large mercantile business, and devoted much of his time and attention to superintending his farm, of which he was very fond. He was a man of great native force of character. He was not only respected, but beloved by everybody who approached him. In his youth, he held the commission of a justice of the peace; but finding himself so overrun with the business of this office as to interfere with his private affairs, he resigned his commission. A short time before his death, he again received a commission of the peace from Governor Hiester. He was a kind father, a sincere friend, and an honest and religious man.

My mother, considering her limited opportunities in early life, was a remarkable woman. The daughter of a country farmer, engaged in household employment from early life until after my father's death, she yet found time to read much, and to reflect deeply on what she read. She had a great fondness for poetry, and could repeat with ease all the passages in her favorite authors which struck her fancy. These were Milton, Pope, Young, Cowper, and Thomson. I do not think, at least until a late period of her life, she had ever read a criticism on any one of these authors, and yet such was the correctness of her natural taste that she had selected for herself, and could repeat every passage in them which has been admired.

She was a sincere and devoted Christian from the time of my earliest recollection, and had read much on the subject of theology; and what she read once, she remembered forever. For her sons, as they successively grew up, she was a delightful and instructive companion. She would argue with them, and often gain the victory; ridicule them in any folly or eccentricity; excite their ambition, by presenting to them in glowing colors men who had been useful to their country or their kind, as objects of imitation, and enter into all their joys and sorrows. Her early habits of laborious industry, she could not be induced to forego– whilst she had anything to do. My father did everything he could to prevent her from laboring in her domestic concerns, but it was all in vain. I have often during the vacations at school or college, sat in the room with her, and whilst she was (entirely from her own choice) busily engaged in homely domestic employments, have spent hours pleasantly and instructively in conversing with her. She was a woman of great firmness of character and bore the afflictions of her later life with Christian philosophy. After my father's death, she lost her two sons, William and George Washington, two young men of great promise, and a favorite daughter. These afflictions withdrew her affections gradually more and more from the things of this world–and she died on the 14th of May, 1833, at Greensburg, in the calm but firm assurance that she was going home to her Father and her God. It was chiefly to her influence that her sons were indebted for a liberal education. Under Providence, I attribute any little distinction which I may have acquired in the world to the blessing which He conferred upon me in granting me such a mother.”

The parents of Mr. Buchanan were both of Scotch-Irish descent, and Presbyterians. At what time this branch of the Buchanan family emigrated from Scotland to Ireland is not known; but John Buchanan, the grandfather of the President, who was a farmer in the county of Donegal in Ireland, married Jane Russel, about the middle of the last century. She was a daughter of Samuel Russel, who was also a farmer of Scotch-Presbyterian descent in the same county. James Buchanan, their son, and father of the President, was brought up by his mother's relatives. Elizabeth Speer, the President's mother, was the only daughter of James Speer, who was also of Scotch-Presbyterian ancestry, and who emigrated to Pennsylvania in 1756. James Speer and his wife (Mary Patterson) settled at on a farm ten miles from Lancaster, and afterwards at the of the South Mountain between Chambersburg and Gettysburg. It is told in some memoranda which now lie before me. that in 1779, James Speer left the “Covenanted Church,” on account of difficulties with Mr. Dobbins, his pastor, and was afterwards admitted to full communion in the Presbyterian congregation under the care of the Rev. John Black. This incident sufficiently indicates the kind of religious atmosphere in which Mrs. Buchanan grew up; and the letters of both parents to their son, from which I shall have occasion to quote frequently afford abundant evidence of that deep and peculiar piety which characterized the sincere Christians of their denomination. They were married on the 16th of April, 1788, when Mrs. Buchanan was just twenty-one, and her husband twenty-seven. Eleven children were born to them between 1789 and 1811. James, the future President, was born April 23d, 1791.
