Biography

Katherine was born in 1763. She passed away in 1838.


Research Notes

The area where the Prior family settled was shifted from one county to another three times in the early 1800s. This area didn't become part of Summit County until 1840, two years after Katherine died.

The area was called Trumbull County from 1800-1808; Portage County from 1808-1840; and Summit County beginning in 1840.
