General Notes: Husband - Joseph Brown
He was a descendant of the earliest pioneers of Crawford County, Pennsylvania. The Browns early purchased large tracts of land and later added considerably to their possessions; so that by this means, and by intermarriage with other families, they came to occupy the most of Vernon and Summit Townships. They were a prosperous people, no doubt in consequence of their honest and peaceable dispositions, so that there was no need in the eighty years of their occupancy for a Constable or a Justice of the Peace before whom to bring an action.
