James Birch had reference number 6090. James Birch was born in 1759 in County Wexford, Ireland. When he was twenty-two years old he immigrated to the United States. He settled first in Boston, Massachusetts where he obtained employment in the produce and fish markets. Somewhere around 1786 he married Sally. After the birth of their first child, Thomas, the family moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where James workes as a Carpenter. When their second child, John, was four years old they moved to Crawford County in western Pennsylvania. A History of Crawford County contains this entry:

"James Birch settled in the township in 1795, taking up a large tract of
land. He built his cabin, assisted by six men, while an equal number
kept guard against the Indians and wild beasts, who were then as
numerous as thorns and thistles on the well-improved farms of Watson's Valley, one of the most beautiful in the state. James Birch was one of
those pioneers who had to labor with his ax while his gun stood ready
by his side. But he perservered, and obtained a foothold, raising a
family of twelve childten, among whom were Thomas, John, James, Jr., Johnston, George, William and one who died in infancy."
