Nathaniel and Rachel emigrated to America in 1727, bringing with them his half brothers and sister along with a large connection of the Porters and Gillispies. ^[1]

Nathaniel, the grandson of this immigrant, Nathaniel, in an article, published in the Courier-Journal says:

"My grandfather Ewing, as I have said, settled in Maryland, on the eastern shore of the Susquehanna, now called Cecil County, where he had a family of ten children–six sons and four daughters, viz.: Sarah, William, Ann, John and James (twins), George, Alexander, Rachel, and Samuel, who died young.

"He then says Sarah married Robert Potts and lived near Harrisburg, Pa.; William, the oldest boy, married Kitty Ewing, daughter of Joshua Ewing; Ann, known as the “Sea Gull”, because born on the ocean, married James Breading, her cousin; John Married Hannah Sargeant; James married, first, Peggy Ewing, daughter to Joshua Ewing; second, Miss Venable; George married Mary Porter, his cousin, daughter of James Porter; Alexander married Jane Kirkpatrick; Rachel married William Ewing, a relative, and lived in Sunbury, Pennsylvania; Samuel died without issue. He does not name a tenth child; and Col. Ewing says he was unable to locate a tenth.''^[2]
