Researching the Brown Family of Green County - (Salisbury) Josiah & Lois Chapman Brown - Beaches Corners - Jewitt - Eastkill. (Josiah - abt 1741 - 1818) Josiah - his son - his father and whole bunch of them are buried and/or memorialized at that cemetery. Their children: Melvin, Stace ( Coxsackie) Lois (Hinman) Nathan, Leman, Horace, Edith ( Merritt) Zadock, Josiah Before heading to Green County - Josiah & Lois Brown lived in No. Salem, Westchester - before that over the hill in CT - in Dutchess County on the Beekman Patent. You will find these folks turning up in Coxsackie - Jewitt/Hunter - Rensselaerville, Coeymans, Coeyman's Hallow, Schoharie, Glenville and Cayuga County - ( Ledyard - Scipio ) Tioga & Tompkins County ( Danby & Enfield) Also in Hinckley, Medina County, Ohio ZJ & HR Brown - of Schoharie - the Schoharie Marble Works. Interested in all - but most of all - I would like to find out more on the wife of Melvin Brown born 1772 (my line) baptism Salem, Christ Church - Westchester. Wife: Polly Salisbury. Melvin opened a store in Scipio, Cayuga County in 1808. He made potash and took it back to Albany to sell for goods to take back to the store. Melvin may have lived in Glenville with his brother Nathan for a while before 1810 and he may have lived in Marcelus - Onandago County early on. Their first child Horace - 1810. Other children: Grace Clara Brown ( married ZJ Brown) Nancy (Trim) Eliza (Sawer) Synthia (Rice) Horace (Elizabeth Neal) and Parvis Austin Brown ( never married ) My big question: Who are the parents of Polly Salisbury (wife of Melvin) She may have come from Troy ??? She may have come from a Salisbury Family in Cayuga County - or Melvin may have "picked her along the way" perhaps in Greene County or Saratoga !!! Polly was born perhaps about 1793 ish ... and died in 1858 - she and Melvin are buried in the Ledyard Cemetery, Cayuga County.
