From History of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania:
Capt. Espy married, in 1831, Elizabeth, daughter of Peter and Abigal (Faucit) Hickman, the former an old pioneer of this county; eight children were born to this union: Jane (Mrs. Bowers), Abigal (Mrs. Hultz), Lizzie (Mrs. Santers), Sarah (Mrs. Philips), Mary A., James, Susan (at home with their mother) and Thomas. James and Thomas died of typhoid fever in 1883. The mother, who is an estimable lady, now seventy-nine years old, has borne heroically the loss of a kind husband, and has always resided on the farm which he owned.
