"John, the eldest son [of James and Jerusha McCurdy], was born in 1691. He married Lucretia McCurdy ("Aunt Lucretia"), the daughter of Patrick and Mary (Laughlin) McCurdy, and located near Ballycounel. He died in 1789, and his wife in 1809, aged 83. Their children were Archibald, John, and Daniel. Archibald married Jennet Guthrie of Bellyhelly. Their children went to America. John married Lizzie McBride of Ballycounel, and they went to America. Daniel married Sally (or Elizabeth) Warner. This Jennet Guthrie must not be confused with her of the same name who married Alexander McCurdy who went to Nova Scotia. The latter was probably a niece of the former."
