McPherson,"Jeremiah, the eldest child of William and Margaret, married
Alcinda Latta (1821-1894), a quiet and soft spoken Quaker from the mountains of
Pennsylvania, in 1837. Jeremiah was a man of stout build, about six feet

Jeremiah and Alcinda settled on Tenmile Creek in Tyler County in 1840.
They had twelve children."
