Matthew McClung was probably born in Scotland. He emigrated from Ireland to
Pennsylvania about 1745 and settled in Lancaster County. He probably had more than one son,
but this is all we have at present.
These records were sent in from Pat Smith:
From the Archives at the Lancaster Co Historical Society I have:
"Matthew McClung:
Emigrated to US in 1740 - settled in Leacock Township, Lancaster Co., Pa in 1745. Died at
age of 85 years 7 months and 23 days - buried in Middle Octoraro? Churchyard. Father of
Matthew was James McClung. Matthew died 1768.
This would give us a birthdate of 1683 for this older Matthew who died in 1768. It is
possible that this man was born in Scotland.

Speer.) Charles McClung married
