General Notes: Husband - Rev. John Brice

---

He was a self-made man in the best sense of the word, having pursued his studies when a boy under the discouraging restraints of poverty, and having advanced by his own efforts. August 16, 1786, he appeared before the Presbytery of Redstone, Pennsylvania, and asked to be taken on trial in order to his being licensed to preach. April 16, 1788, "Presbytery having received sufficient testimonials in favor of his having gone through a regular course in literature, of his good moral character, and of his being in the communion of the church, etc., having given satisfaction as to his accomplishments and experimental acquaintance with religion, and as to his proficiency, etc., in divinity, did license him to preach as a probationer for the holy ministry wherever he might be orderly called." April 22, 1789, a call was received by him from the united congregations of Three Ridges and Forks of Wheeling, and at the meeting of Presbytery May 25, 1789, he declared his acceptance of the same. He was ordained at Three Ridges in April, 1790. After leaving this charge he removed to a farm in Virginia, where he spent his remaining years. While there he organized the church at Unity, Greene County, Pennsylvania. He died aged fifty-one years, and in the twenty-second year of his ministry.

He was born in Harford County, Maryland. When he was very young his parents moved to Washington County, Pennsylvania, and here he received his early education. He received his license from the Presbytery of Redstone in 1788, and a short time later was ordained a minister of the Gospel. He was admitted a member of the Ohio Presbytery and established a church at West Alexander and the Forks of Wheeling, where he remained for twenty years, also preaching in Greene County and the surrounding country.
