the parcel appears again in the records when the land is deeded to james fowley in 1773. rev. philip fithian, who was commissioned to survey the presbyterian churches scattered about pennsylvania in 1775, wrote about the fort and his stay at the fowley's home. published by the huntingdon county historical society, he writes in his diary: "we crossed ofwick (aughwick) creek and arrived …at mr. fowley's who lives within the walls of old fort shirley" (1937:16). ownership of the parcel is then transferred to paul warner in 1776 and recorded by another survey map.
