Our first Brown ancestor immigrant, his wife, and his son, Abraham, landed at Philadelphia in 1735. That his name was Abraham is inferred by events, time sequences and family memories and traditions. We are certain that further investigation into the records of Borden's Grant will shed some light on him.
Abraham Brown was born either in Scotland or Ireland about 1700/10. When he died is unknown, but we believe it was near present day Lexington, Virginia in the Wood's Creek Area of Borden's Grant when it was part of Orange County. Abraham is possibly buried near Hall's Meeting House on Whistle Creek, two miles west of Lexington. At that time the area was known as the Forks of the James River.
He married Margaret, whose parentage is unknown, in Scotland or Ireland. She was born about 1700 in Scotland or Ireland and died at the Forks of the James near Lexington, Virginia in what was part Augusta County.
Abraham and Margaret Brown landed at Philadelphia with their son Abraham in 1735 according to old family Bible records and notes. Soon they migrated with a large group of Scots Covenanters down the "Indian Road" on the west side of the Appalachian Mountains to Bordon's Grant in present day Rockbridge County. They settled on the southern part of the grant next to the Kirkham's land. They were in the area from 1735 or 1736 but the deed for the land was not obtained until 17or 18 years later in 1754. The deed was apparently put in the name of his son Abraham and his wife, Margaret Kirkham.
There are few records from this period, especially for the Covenanters, whose religious practices were banned by the Crown. No Marriage records of these people exist and gravestones were not used. The new settlers were constantly harassed by the Indians. Burials were done in secret because the Indians often destroyed the burial sites. Paper was very scarce and only the Virginia Colony and Anglican Church records were maintained in the early days of settlement. Because ofthe scarcity of records, we have to rely on later day records and family stories that were documented after the fact. [Source: George T. Brown, Jr., Dayton, Ohio.]
