biographical and/or anecdotal:

notes or source:
Stephen Mackey of Uniontown, PA, was apparently a descendent of Shenandoah Valley explorer John Mackey, who immigrated to Jamestown, VA about 1700, resided at Timber Ridge, VA, and is buried (1773) in the Timber Ridge Presbyterian Church (formerly Ulster Presbyterian Church). John Mackey was a neighbor of the family of Samuel Houston of Texas fame. Family lore has it that the Mackey's who came from Ireland were quarrymen, and that agrees with accounts about John Mackey's involvement building "Greystones", buildings of local granite or limestone in the Lexington, VA area. Lexington is 7 miles from Timber Ridge, VA.

I have seen the 1759 birth date for Stephen before, but I believe it is incorrect. I have a copy of his will. In it, he refers to himself as being quite old at a time when he would have been only in his 50's. Also, I have a photo of his headstone in the Tent Presbyterian Cemetery near Union Town. It lists his birth as 1742.
