General Notes: Husband - George Brockway


He grew to manhood in Ashtabula County, Ohio. About 1823 he came to West Salem Township, Mercer County, Pennsylvania. He and wife resided for a few years on Big Run, in West Salem Township; thence removed to Kinsman, Ohio, where they lived about seven years. In the spring of 1834 they returned to Mercer County and took up their residence in Greene Township. They spent the remaining years of their lives there. He was a Baptist from youth up to 1840, when, being a strong anti-slavery man, and disliking the position assumed by his church on that subject, he severed his connection therewith and subsequently became a "Free-thinker."
