See Pendleton Co. deed from heirs of his brother, John.

Married once, remained in the community where his father settled near the
village of Crabbottom, Pendleton Co., VA/WV, now Blue Grass, Highland Co., VA.
His place probably abutted the lands of his father and brother, Michael. It
may be possible that he lived 2-3 miles from his fathers home, on Franks Run.
His son, Daniel, lived at this location. Carl Arbogast, son of Abraham
Arbogast lived there in 1971, per Amanda Forbes. Had 9 children.

See extensive research and records of Amanda Crawford Arbogast Forbes.

Deed of heirs filed in Pendleton Co., 1844 gives names of children. Died
intestate. His dates are from a family bible in possession of Larry Roberts.

It is possible Catherine was born in Pennsylvania before her parents came to
