General Notes: Husband - Hugh H. Brackenridge

---

From Philadelphia, he was enroute for Wheeling, West Virginia, in company with several friends, and stopped at Jacob Wolf's house in Washington County, Pennsylvania, to seek a night's lodging. Sabina Wolf, eighteen years old, was told to "put the gentleman's horse away," and supposing herself unobserved sprang lightly on the horse's back, and galloped off to the stable. The Judge, however, saw the act, and also observed that on her return to the house she cleared the fence with a running jump. He was so delighted at seeing such an agile female, so different from city girls, that he passed the entire evening in conversation with the fair damsel, and became so infatuated with her, that, just as he was about to renew his journey the following morning, he asked the "old squire" for his daughter's hand in marriage. A few days later, on his return trip, the Judge again stopped at the house, married her there, and took her with him to Philadelphia, where he had her educated in a select seminary. Some of her descendants became residents of Washington County.
