I have the following information on my direct ancestor, Ann (Withrow) Willson, possibly a cousin of William Love (Luiff?) who traveled with her to the US. Looking for her parentage/town of origin in Ireland. Barring that, perhaps finding William Love's family would help somewhat, if they were truly cousins. The following is from the Farmers' Cabinet of March 21, 1808.
Died. At Henniker, Mrs. Ann (Withrow) Willson, wife of
Mr. Thomas Willson ; also, Mr. William Love, of Hills-
borough ; the former on the 2d, and the latter on the 6th inst.
They were both aged, but being foreigners, neither could as-
certain the exact date of their respective births. These two
persons were cousins, and endeared to each other by rare famil-
iarity of circumstances. They were natives of Ireland, though
of Scotch descent. Both born in the same borough, taught at
the same school, spent their youthful days in the same circle
of friends. In 1763 they embarked on the same vessel, cross-
ed the same ocean, and landed at the same place in Pennsyl-
vania. From there they, in company, went to Maryland,
thence to Boston, thence to Londonderry, N. H., thence sepa-
rated by a short distance, both settled in the same vicinity.
They were peculiarly attached to each other, having for years
no other relative this side the Atlantic save their families.
They were pleasant and beloved companions to their respec-
tive partners, tender and indulgent parents, obliging and hos-
pitable neighbors. They were both taken unwell at the same
time. Mr. Love recovered a little, and rode to Henniker to
visit his friend, but was greatly surprised to find that the com-
panion of his early days and of his travels was then breathing
her last. He was immediately taken unwell, and died in the
same house four days after, and through grace we hope they
have both safely arrived at the same better country where the
dearest kindred meet to part no more. They were pleasant
and lovely in their lives, and in their death they were not di-
vided.
