"David Dinwiddie ... was born in the Ulster province of Ireland, a son of David and Sarah Dinwiddie, in 1724"--Page 23. He emigrated from Ireland to Pennsylvania about 1741 and married Jean McClure in 1745. "David Dinwiddie, who had been ordained a church elder in 1753, is said to be one of the first Covenanter Elders ordained in America, died in 1802. Up to this time, Marsh Creek Cemetery, near the now noted Gettysburg, seems to have been the family burial place."--Page 24. Descendants lived in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and elsewhere.
