Todds of Coleraine, Burlington Co NJ,
and Cambria
County PA
This family appears to have come from northern
Ireland – whether Antrim or Coleraine, Co Londonderry – can not be discerned from the text. Kinsman General Richard Montgomery had family
in Co Donegal, so perhaps a Londonderry origin for the Todds is more
likely. Despite considerable digging
into records, it appears that not a single male line of this family has
survived to the present; so use of male DNA to identify their kin in Ireland is
not possible. The sole remaining
possibility is a Ray Todd b 1881 Lorain Co Ohio but he can
not be found after 1900. In any
event, the female lines remain to be researched and a narrative of the families life in Cambria County is
needed.
“Todd, David. He was born about 1766, in Colraine,
County Antrim, Ireland.
He was one of several children of David and Barbara
Montgomery Todd. Barbara Todd was the only sister of General Richard
Montgomery, who fell at Quebec. In 1779, when only thirteen years old, he was
impressed on board of a British man-of-war. Later he came to America and
located near Burlington, N. J. On Aug. 5,1787, he married Mary Stevens. He and
his wife, with six children, came to Ebensburg, Sept. 2, 1800. Mary Todd was
the seventh child, and was born in Ebensburg.
In January, 1819, she was married to Daniel Murray, by
Father Gallitzin of Loretto; they had one child, Mary Josephine, who married
James Myers. (See John Myers.) Mary Todd Murray's second husband was Obadiah
Blair. They were the parents of John A. Blair.
David Todd died in Ebensburg, May 1, 1841; they had eight
children: John Todd, born Sept. 5, 1788, died in infancy; Thomas, born Oct. 16,
