LUTHER BROWN, Patch Grove. Mr. Brown, who ranks among the pioneer settlers of Grant County, was born May 21, 1796, at Canterbury, Conn.

This pro- gramme obtained until Mr. Brown had reached the age of 30, when he concluded to try his luck in the Far West. At that time, the pioneer adventurer needed not to go further than Ohio, the main portion of which was but little better than a wilderness. Mr. Brown settled near Ellsworth, Mahoning Co., in the above State, and began the task of converting 100 acres of heavy timber-land into a tract fit for cultivation. While here, he married Miss Fitch, daughter of Deacon Daniel Fitch, who proved a worthy helpmeet.

Here Mr. Brown has continued to reside, and where he has raised a family of twelve children, seven of whom are now living, and have families of their own. Mr. Brown is now in his 85th year, and a link between the past and the present, and takes an active in- terest in everything connected with the county of which he has been so long an honored citizen.
