Re: McKees of Armstrong County, PA
Thomas McKee 7/23/12
Hello. I saw your posting of July 2012 concerning McKees in early Armstrong County and wondered if could help me.I am looking for a McKee who lived in Armstrong County (or in Westmoreland County before Armstrong County was formed).His name may have been Thomas or William and he died some time in the 1825 -1828 timeframe.He would have been married to a Jane McCauley and had a son named William McKee born in 1825. This William McKee is my great great grandfather.
There is a family tradition that 4 McKee brothers came from Ireland and settled in western PA.William's father was one of them and he worked in or owned a salt mine in the Saltsburg area.
I was wondering if you might have some information on these McKee brothers and their descendants that might fit this.Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
