Albert was the son of Joseph Macy & Mary Starbuck of Nantucket Island, MA & of Guilford Co., NC. On 17 Aug 1802 he married Nancy Wall (Walls in the mar record) in Randolph Co., North Carolina. The bondman was Hn. Cummins and the witness was Alexr. Gray.

The History of Greater Indianapolis, p. 1130, reported, "Albert Macy, a son of Joseph was born in Nantucket Massachusetts, in 1774, and was only a boy when the family went south. He married Nancy Wall of Virginia, and they had a family of eight children, four sons and four daughters."

According to family records, these children were:
Joseph (husband of Sarah Hobson)
Elizabeth (Mrs. Jacob Marshall)
Hiram
David (husband of Mary Ann Patterson)
Phebe (Mrs. Ira Swain)
William
Mahala (Mrs. Edward Kinley)
Lydia (Mrs. Elisha Pearis Gaddis).

Albert Macy removed from North Carolina in 1819, and settled on a farm in Randolph Co., Indiana, in a new and thinly settled part of the state, being one of the pioneers of the great west.

Wife Nancy Wall Macy is buried with family members in Salem Cemetery in Union Twp., Randolph Co., Indiana (not too far from Economy Cemetery).
