Pg.4: "George McCandless...sent favorable reports to Antrim County, Ireland, from Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. These letters influenced his eldest brother, John, and wife and small daughter, to join him. John's report to relatives corroborated that which George had sent, and so John and Jane (Carothers) McCandless and the remaining brothers and sisters all came over. With them came three nephews of John and Jane, cousins of the brothers John and George. The three nephews were Robert, David and William McCandless. Robert had married Jane McCandless, daughter of John and Jane (Carothers) McCandless, before leaving Ireland. At the same time came cousins by the name of Carothers."
