Dear Bob,
You got my family!!!!
I don't know how to thank you. I had not listed John Brisben, who died in
Jefferson Co., 4 Dec 1835. He was my 4th great grandfather!.. John married
?Mary ?Clark YOUNG. I am posting the following info for anyone else
following this line.
John's children were
1. Elizabeth W. who married Nicholas D. GROVER, (children John Brisben
Grover, and Jeremiah Grover),
2. James Young Brisbin, who married Julia McClung (children - Harriet, David
A. and Samuel R. who is my 2nd great grandfather) My 3rd great grandfather.
3.William Henry
4. John Jack, who married Sarah Ann OWENS in Jefferson Co.
5. Hannah Maria, who married Samuel HATCHER in Jefferson Co.,
6. David, b. 3 Aug, 1771, d. PA
7. James (Doctor), married ? Esther (children - James C. who married Amelia
S. Bellas)
8. Henry, who married Julia Ann LIGHTNER (child - David H. married Hannah
HURST)
Samuel R. listed above, child of #2 James Young Brisbin, married Mary
Elizabeth FOREHAM/FORKEM. The only child I know of is my great grandfather
James P. (spelled Briston on marriage index in Lawrence Co., IN) James
married Rose B. WALLNER (spelled Walner on marriage index) Rose was from
Germany and I would love to find out the right name of the town she was
from. They had James Hugh and George who changed the spelling of the name
to BRISBANE.
Again Bob, thank you so much. And of course, now you have thrown a few more
names to work on...gee...and I thought I was almost done! <grin>
