General Notes: Husband - James Brown


He accom­panied his brother, Ebenezer, from Westmoreland County, PA, to Butler County early in the nineteenth century, and together they acquired 400 acres of land. James located upon the farm later owned by his grandson, Henry J. Brown, which three generations of the family aided in clearing of its heavy growth of timber. He died on the place at the advanced age of eighty-one years. He and his wife reared a large family of fourteen children, of whom ten grew to maturity.
