    Notes:

    1 - Daughter Nancy Ralstons obituary says William was born in Glasgow, Scotland, was a cousin of US President James Buchanan and died at 104 years of age.
    1850 census says he was born in Ireland, his tombstone and an Ancestry.com tree show he was born in Scotland. The Ancestry.com tree show his birthplace as Camghouran beside Loch Rannoch, Perthshire. The same tree show his marriage to Nancy took pl ace when he was aged 19 at Loch Rannoch.
    The 1850 US Federal census shows a land value of $1000 in Rural Valley, Armstrong Co., Pennsylvania.

    2 - I found the 1850 census records for William and son John living in Cowanshannock, Armstrong Co. PA. In both the 1850 and 1860 census, William states that he was born in Ireland, not is Glasgow as the article above says. He also was probably no t 104 when he died. The 1850 census is probably the most correct date, abt. 1773. I find that the older people got, the worse their memories were for remembering how old they were.
