Here is another piece I found in the
ingenweb.org site
GEORGE A. BRUMMET, farmer, was born December 22, 1840, in Monroe County, Ind., and is the
fourth of the nine in family of Joab and Sarah (Brummet) Brummet, natives of Tennessee and
of German extraction. George A. Brummet was reared to farming as a business, and with a
meager education. When he was six years of age, he came with his parents to this county,
having been early settlers of Monroe County, and settled in Washington Township, where Mr.
Brummet purchased 500 acres. Our subject lived with his parents until March 6, 1861, when
he married Miss Martha, daughter of William and Elizabeth Snider, from which union
succeeded four children - Eli (deceased), William McClelland, Arwine and Thena Catherine
(deceased). Mrs. Brummet died September 12, 1875; and January 11, 1877, Mr. Brummet wedded
Miss Elizabeth, daughter of John and Elizabeth Brown, and to this second marriage three
children were granted. Mr. Brummet moved to his present residence in 1861; it comprises
125 acres, !
which is considerably improved with good buildings, orchards and the like - almost all of
which was acquired by his industry and management. In politics, he is a Democrat.
"Counties of Morgan, Monroe & Brown, IN - Jackson Township" - published in
1884 by F.A. Battey & Co.
I may have a Brummet in my tree but I will have to get on my other computer to find it
