Biography

Experience Morgan was 22 Jul 1749 at Groton, Connecticut, the first child of Timothy Morgan-9812 and Deborah Leeds-197.

She married Peleg Brown in 1770. They had at least 10, perhaps 11 children ^[1].

This family relocated via Leyden, Massachusetts, eventually settling in central New York State.

Experience (Morgan) Brown died in 1845 at Bridgewater New York, and is buried in West Winfield with her husband ^[2].

Note: The F-A-G online memorial site is poorly documented as to its relevance to this Experience Brown. The depicted plaque, containing dozens of names purportedly in Tennessee Road Cemetery (not Old Day Cemetery where her grave is located), is not a grave marker. Its listed actuarial dates for "Experience Brown, born 1757 - 6-26-1852" do not align with those obtained from the Brown genealogy, which unless proven otherwise, should be preferred.
