• Notes

  William and Janette Baldrige lived the remainder of thier lives as farmers/weavers on land they colonized just north of the present-day Mason-Dixon line, between Octorara Creek and the eastern bank of the Susquehanna River. It is believed they were members of the Muddy Run Society, Little Britain Congregration of the Presbyterian Church of Lancaster County, where they were very likely buried, although there are no known tombstones there bearing their names. William Baldrige died on 25 November 1772 in Little Britain Township, and his Last Will and Testament dated 9 January 1767 was probated on 14 January 1773 and recorded in Will Book "C" Volume 1, Page 124, Official Records of Lancaster County. Janette also died there reportedly 28 July 1768.
