Margaret's father, Johan Jacob Brown, his parents and siblings, arrived September 9, 1738 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on the Ship, Glasgow. The family settled in Lancaster County, Pa and resided there until the 1750's, when they moved southward to Rowan County, North Carolina, they begun to spell their name BROWN. Jacob purchased 2 tracts of land on Crane Creek in Rowan County, North Carolina. Apportion of this land adjoined that of his brother Michael, (1732 - 1807). In 1796 Jacob moved from Rowan County, North Carolina to Washington County, Tennessee where three of his sons had already moved. Jacob and Elizabeth Goettgen (Braun) Brown had 11 children. Jacob was known as the "Wagonmaker", and performed Patriotic Services during the American Revolution by making and repairing wagons. Being known as a "wagonmaker" distinguished him from another Jacob Brown who lived near by in Washington County, Tennessee. Jacob died on November 1806 and was buried in the Family Cemetery on his farm.
Margaret and Conrad Starnes were the parents of 9 children:
1. Jesse Starnes, Rosanna Brown and Arlyce Rotermund
2. Rachel Starnes, John Brown
3. James Starnes
4. Sally Starnes, married James Mitchell
5. Jacob Starnes, married Catherine Brown, d/o Abraham Brown and Catherine Bonaker
6. Elizabeth Starnes, married David McCardle
7. Margaret Starnes, married Benjamin Scroggins
8. Frederic Starnes, Elizabeth Salts
9. William Starnes, married Sally Holly
From the notes I have, made possible by Robert H. Brown. Leesburg Cemetery at Telford, Washington County, Tennessee is the same as the Brown Family Farm Burial Plot in Limestone, Washington County, Tennessee. The tombstones were made of limestone, it is said the stones are broken and piled against the fence.
I do not know for sure if Margaret Brown Starnes is buried at the Brown Family Cemetery, as the notes I have just says she is buried in Washington County, Tennessee.
I honor Margaret Brown Starnes, and would think she is buried at the Family Farm Cemetery.
