General Notes: Husband - Jacob Brown, Sr.


He was born in Germany and came to Pennsyl­vania with his parents, who settled in Westmoreland County. About 1801 he located in Clay township, Butler County, on a tract of 400 acres. He walked from Logan's Ferry to his new settlement in Butler County, carrying his provisions on his back. In the spring of 1802 he married and they took up their home in a small log cabin which he had erected on his land. When they died, he and his wife were buried close to his house; his son Jacob erected a monument to mark their last rest­ing place. They were members of the Lutheran church, and died in that faith. At his death his tract of 400 acres was left to his children.
