His parents emigrated to Missouri in the fall of 1837, locating in Buchanan County, where he has resided ever since. He received only a moderate education. September 27, 1859 he married Miss Jane Gilmore, a native of Missouri.

He has been fortunate enough to save 140 acres of land, all under fence and in a good state of cultivation. His father, one of the citizens, was called to the Far West to assist in supressing the Mormons. Mr. Brinton sustained serious losses by the late war. He was in the Pawpaw militia, taken prisoner and cast into prison by Col. Cranor's men and held for ten days. He is a member of the Grange, and has been school director several times.
