Timeline of Family |
1751-1772
Emigration from Ireland to PA
Assuming Ephraim's father was between the ages of 18-21 at the time of Ephraim's
birth in 1772, it is probable he emigrated from Ireland between 1751-1772
prior to the American Revolutionary War.
1772 Lancaster
Co., PA
Birth of Ephraim McCartney September 20.
1790 Mifflin
Co., PA
1790 Federal Census [Males: (16+)(<16) / Females: (all)(all
other free persons)(slaves)]
Marriage of Ephraim McCartney to Ann Sanford in Mifflin Co. 1790 Federal
Census (the same year as Ephraim's marriage) lists Ephraim and family residing
in Mifflin Co. as well as other McCartney families:
William (1, 2, 4, 0, 0)--pg. 104
Wm (1, 0, 1, 0, 0)--pg. 120
Ephraim (1, 1, 1, 0, 0)--pg. 127
George (1, 1, 4, 0, 0)--pg. 129
Sarah (3, 1, 2, 0, 0)--pg. 132
Ephraim's father-in-law, Abram Sanford (1, 0, 1, 0, 0), (pg. 126) is listed
as residing near Ephraim at the time of the census. Another probable
relative of Ephraim, Abrm Sanford (1-2-1-0-0), (pg. 121) is listed as well. Mifflin
Co. was established a year earlier from portions of Cumberland and Northumberland
counties.
1791 Mifflin Co., PA
Birth of Robert Isaac McCartney December 24. [Son of Ephraim
and Ann (Sanford) McCartney.]
1800 York
Co., PA
1800 Federal Census [Males: (<10)(10-15)(16-25)(26-44)(45+)
/ Females: (<10)(10-15)(16-25)(26-44)(45+)(all other free persons)(slaves)]
1800 census lists an Ephraim McCartney/McCourtney
and family residing in Fawn, York Co. (1, 2, 0, 1, 0, 1, 2, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0),
(pg. 3). I do not believe this Ephraim McCourtney or Ephraim M. Courtney
as the document is written in a land warrant for York Co., is our Ephraim.
There is an Ephraim McCourtney (name appears as McCurtney or McCourtney) that
is listed consistently in York county in the 1800, 1810 and 1820 census. This
Ephraim McCourtney died in York county 4 Nov 1822. This family, always McCourtney
or variant, has descendants that stayed in York county and their lineage is
well documented. It is interesting to note though, that a Robert and James
Duncan are residing nearby (pg. 2), also in Fawn. The Duncan family later
married into our McCartney family, beginning with child #2, Anna (McCartney)
Duncan, who married a Robert B. Duncan in 1830.

The 1840 Federal Census of Washington Twp. lists Lydia McCartney and children residing (0-1-2-3-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0 / 0-1-1-0-0-0-1-0-0-0-0-0-0). Based on Robert’s will and assuming Robert attempted to list his children in birth order, Catherine should be approx. 19 in 1840. It is possible that Robert incorrectly listed Catherine before Jacob when she should have followed Jacob, as Jacob was born in 1823 and Paden in 1827. This gap allows for another birth between, which would put Catherine closer to the census age. Or, she was a twin to Paden (Paden’s daughter had twins).

Males 2 (10-14)--sons George W. (age 12) and Paden A. (age 13)
