    John was married in Venango County, November 1, 1816 to Margaret Kinnear
    and settled at Youngsville. Alexander Siggins was a blacksmith, and was a
    expert in that business; he owned a large farm extending from "York Hill"
    to near the center of Youngsville Borough; he built the house now
    occupied (in 1912) by Mrs. M.B. Davis; "it was the best house in the
    county, in fact there are few, if any today, that are better, and
    although now nearly one hundred years old, it is still in a good state of
    preservation". He joined the Methodist Church while a young man and was a
    leader in all church matters throughout his long life in Youngsville. He
    lived a quiet and and honest Christian life, with nothing to make a
    lengthy biography, but Youngsville lost one of its best citizens when he
    was called home. His farm contained a fine tract of timber. Later this
    was divided among his children, all except Benjamin receiving their share.
    Benjamin had asked that he might be allowed to use his portion of the
    estate in obtaining an education. His wish was granted. Alexander
    Siggins and his wife joined the church in 1820. "Uncle Alick", as he was
    familiarly called, organized a Sunday School of which he was
