General Notes: Wife - Sarah Patterson

---

No children were born of her mar-riage to Thomas Brown, but he was a widower previous to his marriage with Sarah, having six small children, and to these children she became a mother in the truest sense. She was of a modest, unselfish nature, strongly domestic in her tastes, and for sixteen years filled the difficult part of stepmother, securing for herself the love and affection of these children, whom she trained in the fear of the Lord, and who all became prominent and much respected in the community. They mourned her as a true mother when she was taken from them, her death resulting from a stroke of apoplexy.

She died December 30, 1857. [CRFP, 738]
