General Notes: Husband - James Brownlee


After coming to America he learned the trade of a millwright, which he followed several years in eastern Pennsylvania, then settled on a farm in Canton township, Washington County, where the remainder of his life was passed.

He emigrated to America from Scotland, and settled east of the mountains in Pennsylvania. He was a millwright by trade, and came to Washington County with several others. After staying through the winter they returned to the east, concluding that they were too far beyond the bounds of civilization. He returned a year or two later, and purchased land near Sugar Hill from Hugh Wiley on the 2d of January, 1792. He married and settled on the farm.


General Notes: Wife - Jane Leman


She was a member of a pioneer family of Washing­ton County, Pennsylvania, who had emigrated from Ireland.
