John Brown, of Stradlington Lower Makefield

findagrave # 161931219 We might well imagine: When he died on his farm the family carried his body down by the river and buried him at the Slate Hill burying ground. Other Browns are buried there, such as Adonijah Brown .

The Quaker section of Slate Hill cemetery has 185 marked graves out of a total of 487, most pre-dating 1800. A notable progenitor of the Brown line, also buried at Slate Hill is Henry Baker

• * problem:

~• it seems a little unlikely that John's parent's are William Brown and Esther Baker as:
here are at least some of William's and Esther's children:

#William Brown b. c 1705, d. 29 May 1786

1. Margaret Brown b. s 1708
2. James Brown b. s 1710
3. Daniel Brown b. s 1712

For John to also be a son he would have to be James Brown's twin...
