    Notes 
    • Robert E. Brown married Mary Loghry from Canisteo, Stueben County, NY., dau. of Joseph Leander and Mary Nancy ( Santee) Loghry on 14 Aug. 1831. They were married the same day in a double wedding with his sister, Juliette to Charles E.Loghry. Robert was known to his family as "Emm" as referred to in letters written in later years by his brother-in-law, Charles Loghry to Wm. Henry Harrison, (Henry) Loghry.

      After "Emm" and Mary (Molly) were married, they lived for many years at Brown's Crossing where they conducted a tavern. This they sold in 1855 to Curtis Allen and removed to the Mitchell Ellison farm on North Hill, Cameron, where Emm died.

      In a letter written by Charles Loghry to his son, Henry, from Cameron, March 15, 1880; "your unkel Emm is very poorley this winter he lais A bed the most of the time. He haint bin from home in nine years. He is nothing but skin and bones."

      In the 1870 census for Cameron, Steuben county, NY, it mentioned one of the daughters, Anna, age 20, was idiotic.

      The farm on North Hill is still in Loghry (Gerald and Sylvia Loghry) possession in 1998.

      According to the History of Saratoga County, NY by Nathaniel Bartlett Sylvester, 1878, Robert's father, Samuel R. Brown and family were in Saratoga Springs, Saratoga County, NY between the years 1809 and April of 1812 at which time he took his family to Albany, NY.
