George Brown was born March 10, 1803 according to his obituary in the Catoctin Clarion on July 9, 1885. He was born on the Brown homestead in Brownsville/Foxville, Fredrick County, Maryland the son of Thomas Brown Jr. and Susannah Rebecca (Harman) Brown. He was baptized Johann Georg Brown April 14, 1803 at Apple's Church in Thurmont, Maryland witnessed by Georg Fuchs and Anna Elizabetha. He dropped the name Johann and went by his middle name George. He was the brother of Thomas Brown lll born in 1795 who married Susan McAfee, Elizabeth Brown born in 1797 who married Daniel Hauver, Mary Brown born in 1798 who married Christian Getz/Gates, Johannes (John) Brown born in 1799 and died 1821, Susan/Susanna/Anna Brown born in 1804 who married John Barnhiser, who may have also been known as Barnes. Catherina/ Catherine born in 1805 who married Daniel McAfee, Sarah A. Brown born in 1812 who married William Martin, William H. Brown born in 1813 who married Catherine Brown, daughter of William Brown Sr., and Christian Brown Born in 1815 who married Susannah Shaull. It is believed that George married Julia Ann Scott April 26 or 27, 1824/5 in Maryland. Together they had seven children: Catherine born in 1825 who married William W. Null, David W. Brown born in 1826, Christian Brown born in 1830, Sarah Brown born in 1833/4 in Maryland who married Aaron C. Rhees in Seneca County, Ohio, Leetha born in 1838 who married Jacob Ash, Thomas Brown born in 1843 and who died in 1846, and Wesley B. Brown born August 2, 1844, and died March 1, 1912 near Bryan, Ohio. George's father died in 1828, and he was forced to take over as the head of his family and also raise his two younger brothers and sister. According to the 1830 census, George was living at the Brown Homestead in Brownsville/Foxville, Maryland off of Manahan Road and there were eleven people living in the house. George and his wife Julia Ann who were both 27 years old at the time, his mother, Susannah Rebecca (Harman) Brown who was 55, a sister Sarah Ann Brown, 18, a brother, William H. Brown, 17, and brother Christian, 15 and three of his children; Catherine age 5, David W. age 4, and Christian an infant born in 1830. That left two unidentified male children between the ages of 15 and 19. His mother died the next year in 1831 and both his parents are buried in the Brown Family Cemetery. When his father Thomas Brown Jr., died George and his brother Thomas Brown III, were the administrators of the estate and there was not enough money to pay all the debts from his personal estate, so the court ordered that the real estate be sold. The Brown homestead known as Round Meadow, Stones Enough, Resurvey on Round Meadow and the Seperation were put up for public sale. The first sale did not receive a high enough bid to satisfy the debts so they held another public sale. This time George Brown, son of Thomas Brown Jr., was the highest bidder and bought the property for $1122.94. According to his obituary, in 1834 he travelled by horseback to Seneca county, Ohio and purchased or leased some land. He returned to Frederick county and on October 17, 1835, He sold the Brown homestead to his uncle William Brown Sr., for $1800.00. It was after this date that George Brown, his wife and four children and his younger sister Sarah Ann Brown and his younger brother Christian Brown who just turned twenty and ½ years of age and along with other families from Fredrick County, Maryland travelled by Ox driven wagon to Seneca County, Ohio. He was initially in Tiffin, Ohio and practiced the trade of cooper (barrel maker). He leased the old Lloyd Norris farm in Clinton Township just Northeast of the City of Tiffin where his relative John Pittenger owned land. His cousin, John Pittenger, owned land just above the Lloyd Norris farm and was a merchant in Tiffin having moved there in 1828. In John Pittingers bio it states he made the trip from Frederick County, Maryland to Tiffin, Ohio nine times so it is very possible that he led the wagon train that George Brown and his family were on in 1835. He then moved to Eden Township where he farmed for a year before moving to property he purchased in Liberty Township. According to land records On September 24th 1836 he purchased 160 acres of land in Liberty Township where he farmed and later served as a Justice of the Peace. His land was located on CR 11 just north of County Road 592. There were 80 acres on the left side of the road that he later sold to his brother Christian, and his remaining 80 acres was on the right side of the road. Their land was closer to the town of Fostoria than Tiffin, so they were considered as being near Fostoria, Ohio. The legal description for the land was the East ½ of North East ¼ Section 28, Township 3, Range 14 and the West ½ of North West ¼ Section 27, Township 3, Range 14. He was considered one of the pioneer families in Seneca County, Ohio and lived to be 82 years, 3 months and 4 days old. He died June 20, 1885 from illness known as inflammation of the bowels, and is buried with his wife Julia Ann (Scott) Brown in the Null Cemetery in Liberty Township, Seneca County, Ohio.
