David Eakin, a native of Ireland, married Mary McKay. Tradition has it that David, who remained in Ireland, was the brother of Samuel Eakin who migrated to America [see Eakin(II) for Samuel's line]. At least three of David and Mary's sons, William, Joseph, and James, migrated to the Venango County, Pennsylvania area.
