• Notes

  "Andrew Swap Jr. was born in Cattaraugus county, New York. In 1840 he came with his family to Erie County (PA), and for ten years resided in Conneaut township. Moving to Jefferson, Wisconsin, in 1850, he was there employed in farming two years, after which he located in La Salle county, Illinois, where he was engaged in agricultural pursuits for about thirty years. Returning to Pennsylvania, he lived for awhile in Crawford county, but spent his last years with his son, Andrew L., dying at a good old age. He was a carpenter and cabinet maker, and in addition to tilling the soil worked at his trade to some extent. He was a member of the Wesley Methodist church, and a strong abolitionist in politics. He married Sybil Hitchcock, of New York state, a native of Wyoming county, and they reared five children besides Andrew L., of this sketch, namely: Frank, a retired farmer of Jefferson county, Wisconsin; Albert E., engaged in the grocery business in Illinois; Prudence, of Humboldt, Kansas, is the widow of J. Towner; Harriet, wife of William Watson, a retired business man of Goodland, Indiana ; and Luther J. Three children have passed to the life beyond, Rachel, Melvina and Abigail." - Miller, John, A Twentieth Century History of Erie County, Pennsylvania : A narrative account of its historic progress, its people, and its principal interests (1909) P. 657
