Rev. Jeremiah Browning and his wife Catherine, I am told, lived and worked in the Jefferson County area. Rev. Browning was a Methodist preacher. He must have died by 1860 because in the 1860 and 1870 censuses his wife is living with her daughter in Greene County, PA. The couple had at least one daughter, Rebecca (b. 29 January 1828) who married John Buchanan, my gr-gr-gr-granduncle. Rebecca's obituary in the "Waynesburg Republican" of Waynesburg, Greene County, PA, 17 November 1880, page 3, column 4, states: "Being a descendant of good old Methodist stock -- her father Rev. Browning, being one of the pioneer preachers of Eastern Ohio -- of which church she was a member..." John Buchanan's brother, David, also married a Browning girl who is likely a sister to Rebecca. Rachel (Browning) Buchanan died young on 2 June 1847, less than a year after her marriage on 13 August 1846. Family tradition says she is buried in St. John's Episcopal Church Cem., Cross Creek Township, Jefferson County, OH -- I believe. This could be incorrect, but it is believed that she was brought back to Jefferson County for burial at her father's church, this may not be the right church though. Any help is greatly appreciated. I would like to learn anything I can about this family. Thanks, Candice http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~candicelynnb/ __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
