Notes
a. Note:   N1068 "In coming west in 1834, they rode over the mountains to Pittsburg, the girls in the stage, and the boys in the road wagon, in which they slept the night. There were five horses to the wagon, each adorned with a high yoke in the Russian style. These yokes were trimmed with bells, the jingle of which could be heard a long distance. They came down from Pittsburg by boat, and their grandmother, Catherine Grier Smith, cried every night with home sickness. She only remained in Cincinnati long enough to see them settled, and then returned to her home. She took some friends to live with her and care for her, and left her house to them at her death. There was an apple orchard and large grounds around her house, and some of our St. Louis relatives tell me, that these grounds are now the public square of Chambersburg. Catherine Grier belonged to one of the best families of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and was a devout Catholic. Her sons, one of whom was Cousin Martin Acklin's father, often served as altar boys at the Church in Chambersburg from which she was buried."
