                                   Married :  20 May 1820

Alexander  McBride  -  Born :  20 Dec 1795  -  Died :  14 Oct 1878

We have found Armstrongs serving in prominent positions in our early
       state and national history. They served because they believed in freedom and
        were willing to sacrifice for it, without the blare of trumpets or the heralding to
        the press agent. They served but without boasting of it. They toiled to make
        better living conditions for themselves and for us, their children, not that they
        might have honor of men; they had as their motto "Invectus Maneo" ( I will
        remain unconquered ) this motto should be an inspiration to us to carry on
        with renewed courage ever ready to suffer, if need be, for the right, so that
        when we pass of the stage of action & have joined the great host whose name
        we bear generations yet unborn may venerate the motto "Invectus Maneo."
