Andrew Gregg, born May 16, 1763 in Ireland, came to America with his father's family about the time of the breaking out of the Revolutionary war, settling at Sunbury, Pa. Though only a boy, stirred by patriotic impulses, he joined the Sullivan expedition of 1779 and accompanied it on its mission. After the war, he married Nancy Santee of Luzerne county and removed to Ulster, 1800. Here he remained a short time only, going to North Towanda where he lived until 1807, when he took up lands on the Towanda Hills and settled thereon. Here he struggled and labored with the grit of a true pioneer in clearing away the heavy timber and preparing the land for the plow. He died April 25, 1846, and his wife, May 17, 1838, aged 74 years. Their children were:
Esther who married, 1st, a Mr. Fanning, 2nd, Thomas Brown.
