The following from Arthur Humphrey, findagrave member #47386013, on 6/5/2014:
John Brown 1833-1913 was the son of Irvin (also spelled Irvine and Irwin) Brown b. 1805 Co. Carvan, Ireland - d. 1891 Kiskimentas Twp., Armstrong Co., PA and Margaret Johnston b. Abt. 1801 Ireland - d. 1889 Kiskimentas Township, Armstrong Co., PA.
John was one of at least 10 children brought to America by his parents in 1851 - and encouraged to settle in Kiskimentas Township by Margaret Johnston's older brother, Alexander Johnston b. 1774 Co. Fermanaugh, N. Ireland - d. 1872 Kingston House, Youngstown, Westmoreland County, PA (Kingston House located near the Loyalhanna Dam between Latrobe and Ligonier, PA).
The Browns lived on a farm near current day Brownstown, only a few of the children ever marrying - and most living well into their 70's and 80's. Their happy farm is described in the History of Armstrong Co.
Siblings of John were Thomas Brown b. Abt. 1830 - d. Aft. 1910, Isabella "Belle" Brown 1831-1919, Elizabeth Brown b. Abt. 1833, Mary Brown 1842-1922, Alexander Brown b. Abt. 1842 - d. After 1919, Francis Johston Brown 1844-1919, and Margaret Brown 1845-1919 (the latter also buried at Beulah Cemetery).
