Note: The “Antes Genealogy” source indicates Elizabeth and several of her siblings were “born Bald Eagle”. Compiler believes this is a reference to the Bald Eagle Creek, a tributary of the west branch of the Susquehanna River, mostly in Centre County, PA, and at the foot of Bald Eagle Mountain.
He is unable to find a community of the same name in Centre county. There is however a Bald Eagle community in Blair county.
In addition, her father’s notes refer to his moving “to Centre county in 1784, and locat[ing] in Boggs township,
on the Bald Eagle” which seems to be a reference to the same creek. As in Clearfield County, there
is also a Boggs Township in Centre County.
Based on this information the compiler has entered Elizabeth’s place of birth as Boggs Township, Centre, PA, probably on Bald Eagle Creek.
