General Notes: Husband - Benjamin Brundred

---

He came to America in 1819 bought a large estate near Paterson, NJ, with a number of slaves whom he soon freed. His place was at Oldham (later Haledon, near Paterson), where he built iron mills for the manufacture of cotton machinery, employing a number of inventors to help perfect his machinery, some of which was exported to Russia. Evidently he was much esteemed by his employes, who in 1836 presented him with a large silver pitcher and two goblets as tokens of their regard. He was a man of ambitious nature and wide vision, and in building up his foreign trade acquired connections in Mexico which necessitated frequent visits to that country. During the Mexican war he made large contracts with the Mexicans for cotton machinery which was never paid for, with the effect of practically ruining his business. He died at Oldham in 1853, of apoplexy, and was buried in the old Episcopal cemetery there, whence his remains were removed in 1901 to Cedar Lawn cemetery. In 1842 he had made a visit to England with his son William James. [CAB, 418]
