    Notes:

    Jacob Brown, "Manlius, was born in the town of Sullivan, Madison Co., May 3, 1838, third son of George and Maria (Crouse) Brown. He was educated in the common schools. After leaving school he engaged in boating at the age of eighteen, which line he followed for twenty years. He then went to Smith Center, Kansas, and took up a farm of 320 acres, where he remained for five years. On his return he stopped at Buffalo and bought another canal boat and was a captain until Aug., 1885. At that time the family came to Manlius, where he bought a farm of thirty acres and has since made his home. He also has charge of his father's farm of fifty-five acres. In Sept., 1857, Mr. Brown married Samantha Gage of Canandaigua, who died Feb. 18, 1865, leaving one son, Orville G., who was given a good education and after farming it a few years, took up railroading and was killed at Lyons, Feb. 12, 1894, aged 33 year. Mr. Brown was again married April 7, 1865, to Mary E., daughter of Andrew D. and Laura J. (Goodfellow) Collins of Manlius. Mr. and Mrs. Brown have two children: Mary Elldwina, wife of William Raymond, a farmer of Perryville; and William J., a student of the public school, aged 12 years. Mr. Brown is a member of the early family of that name in this town and is one of the heirs to the Crouse estate."

  1. 2.  Orville G. Brown Descendancy chart to this point (1.Jacob1) was born on 26 Nov 1860 in Canandaigua, Ontario County, New York; died on 12 Feb 1894 in Lyons, Wayne County, New York; was buried in Kirkville Cemetery, Manlius, Onondaga County, New York.

    Notes:

    Did you know that Orville G. Brown (son of Jacob and Samantha Gage) did not live with his parents, he was raised by his grandfather, George. I find this ironic in that George farmed his own daughters out to live with other families. When his first wife Maria Crouse was dying of tuburculosis they sent their four youngest children, Catherine, Sarah, Helen, and Laura out to live with relatives. (Pat Carey, Sept2007)

    Orville married Hattie Morgan about 1884. Hattie was born on 08 Apr 1865; died on 15 Sep 1895; was buried in Kirkville Cemetery, Manlius, Onondaga County, New York. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
