  1. 1.  James Huston was born 1758, East Pennsboro, Pennsylvania; died 6 May 1801.

    Notes:

    James Huston served in the Revolutionary War as a private under Lieut. George
    Dickey, of the Third Battalion, Cumberland County Militia, commanded by Lieut.
    Col. David Bell. He also served in Captain George Crawford's Company, Militia.

    In 1785, he bought a large tract of land in Penn's Valley, now Centre County,
    from James Huston, of Philidelphia, "Innholder," who was probably his uncle.
    To this land he removed in the following year and afterwards always lived in
    that part of Pennsylvania. From 1780 to 1786 his name appears regularly on the
    East Pennsboro tax list as a freeman.
