Karen: The only reference to my John H. Brisbin is in our family bible. It does not give his middle name, just H. John's 2nd son was named Henry so just guessing it maybe Henry ?? As we do our research in Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Penna. my son and I have been on the look out for your Hiram but so far that name has not come up. We will continue to be on the alert.
