General Notes: Husband - Johan George Brungart

Miles Twp, Centre Co, PA

He was a farmer, also an ex­tensive land owner, and was one of the substan­tial citizens of his time. In 1820 he built on his farm a tannery, which was superintended by Ja­cob Steffy, also from York county, and the leather he took to Philadelphia by team, bring­ing back goods for the merchants, the trip occu­pying three weeks. He never learned the trade, but was a most skilled mechanic, and spent most of his time in a shop on his farm, where he made tools and instruments of various kinds. He made a plow which was an improvement over the clumsy ones then in use, and which became well known. It was the one alluded to in the old saying common in Brush Valley, that “no man was much unless he owned a long-barrelled shot-gun, a red wamus, and a Brungart plow.” He was a Democrat in politics, and a member of the Lutheran Church, in which he held an influen­tial place. Tall and slender in person, he pos­sessed much vitality, and lived to see his ninetieth year.
