Description

A Narrative of the Life of Mrs. Mary Jemison LIFE OF MARY JEMISON. CHAPTER I. Nativity of her Parents.–Their removal to America.–Her Birth.–Parents settle in Pennsylvania.–Omen of her Captivity. Although I may have frequently heard the history of my ancestry, my recollection is too imperfect to enable me to trace it further back than my father and mother, whom I have often heard mention the families from whence they originated, as having possessed wealth and honorable stations under the government of the country in which they resided. On the account of the great length of time that has elapsed since I was separated from my parents and friends, and having heard the story of their nativity only in the days of my childhood, I am not able to state positively, which of the two countries, Ireland or Scotland, was the land of my parents birth and education. It, however, is my impression, that they were born and brought up in Ireland.
