"91.    Israel Brush (Timothy, Thomas, Thomas) born at Huntington, L. I. 10 Aug. 1730 (town recs.), baptised there 13 Sept. 1730, evidently did not accompany his brother Timothy to Hopewell, Hunterdon Co., N.J. for he was of Huntington on 17 Nov. 1752 when he sold his negro boy Jack Coper to Tredwell Brush.  huntinton town laid out sever parces of land to him at various dates, the last on 15 Apr. 1754.  He had removed to hopewell by 18 Sept. 1757 when his wife Taphath Brush joined the church there.  She was Taphath Sexton* of Hopewell baptized 12 Dec. 1736 at Huntington daughter of Charles Sexton and Sarah (Whitman) Brush.  When Charles Sexton, Esq. of Hopewell made his will 24 Jan. 1750/51 he named six married daughters among his children and daughter Taphath Sexton to whom he gave "on feather bed and bedding whereon she used to lye."
          Israel Brush had removed to Crum Elbow Precinct Dutchess Co. N.Y. by 1760 when he appears on the precinct tax list for the first time.  Thereafter until 1774 he appears consistently on tax lists for Charlotte, Amenia and North East Precincts; the changes probably were not due to removals on his part but to shipfts in civil boundaries.  pioneers of Old Hopewell by Ralph Ege places him in Dutchess County after the Revolution but as he died in Hopewell in 1779 the error is obvious.  He was an inn-keeper in Dutchess County.  Israel Brush returned to Hopewell early in the Revolution.  His name appears on a Company roll of militia exempts for Newburgh, Ulster Co. dated 23 Apr. 1779 but as he was dead on that date it is probable that this service should be credited to Israel Bush.  Stoutenburgh's History of Oysier Bay also lists Israel Brush in an Oyster Bay militia company (British service) which drew arms 22 Jan. 1777, but it is indicated elsewhere that Isaac Brush was the tory militiaman.  Records of the Adjutant-General's office, N.J. show that Israel Brush served from 23 Oct. 59 31 Oct. 1777 in Capt. William Tucker's Hopewell company of the First Hunterdon County militia, being mustered as "a substitute on duty".  On 28 May 1778 he enlisted for nine months, from the first Hunterdon militia, in Capt. John Polhemus' company of the First Regt. of the N. J. Line, Col. Matthias Ogden.  He was described as 51 years old, born on Long Island, five feet eleven inches, fair complexion, grey eyes.  He was ill at Elizabethtown, N.J. on 14 July 1778 and continued ill in hospital until 2 Feb. 1779 when he was reported ill at Hopewell and was discharged there 28 Feb. 1779 (Adj.-Gen. office, Washington).
       Taphath Brush on 5 Apr. 1779 was named by Surrogate Jared Sexton (her brother) administratrix of the estate of Israel Brush, deceased of Hopewell.  Nehemiah Sexton on the bond.  Witnesses:  Jared Sexton and Jerusha Smith.  Inventory by Aaron Runyand and Minne Gulick taken 2 Apr. 1779 shows and estate of Pounds 441:12:6 including cattle and household furnishings but no real estate.  Among assets was an order on the Treasurer of N.J. for Pounds 100 with interest at 6% dated 26 May 1778, evidently a bounty or a cash loan to the state.  Among other items were carpenter tools and two guns with bayonets.
          The widow Taphath Brush married 2nd, as his second wife, Capt. Timothy Titus of Hopewell, whose will dated 13 Jan. 1807, probated 4 Oct. 1808 mentions wife Tabbitha to whom he left considerable personal property and also Anna Brush (relationship unstated) to whom he gave a cow, a bed and $54.  Nehemiah Brush a witness."


Tapthath (Taphath Saxton) SEXTON

          Taphath Brush joined the Church in Hopewell by 18 Sept. 1757.  "She was TAPHATH* SEXTON of Hopewell baptized 12 Dec. 1736 at Huntington - daughter of Charles Sexton and Sarah (Whitman) Brush.  When Charles Sexton, Esq. of Hopewell made his will 24 Jan. 1750/51 he named six married daughters among his children and daughter Taphath Sexton to whom he gave "on feather bed and bedding whereon she used to lye.
          Taphath Brush on 5 Apr. 1779 was named by Surrogate Jared Sexton (her brother) administratrix of the estate of Israel Brush, deceased of Hopewell.  Nehemiah Sexton on the bond.  Witnesses:  Jared Sexton and Jerusha Smith.  Inventory by Aaron Runyand and Minne Gulick taken 2 Apr. 1779 shows and estate of Pounds 441:12:6 including cattle and household furnishings but no real estate.  Among assets was an order on the Treasurer of N.J. for Pounds 100 with interest at 6% dated 26 May 1778, evidently a bounty or a cash loan to the state.  Among other items were carpenter tools and two guns with bayonets.
          The widow Taphath Brush married 2nd, as his second wife, Capt. Timothy Titus of Hopewell, whose will dated 13 Jan. 1807, probated 4 Oct. 1808 mentions wife Tabbitha to whom he left considerable personal property and also Anna Brush (relationship unstated) to whom he gave a cow, a bed and $54.  Nehemiah Brush a witness.
          *The name Taphath is a form of Tabitha.  A most unusual series of errors appear in print in connection with Taphath (Sexton) Brush.  New Jersey Wills (N.J. Archives) calls her Japhath in its abstract of Charles Sexton's will and lists her with Judge Sexton's sons.  The same authority in presenting the administration of Israel Brush's estate in 1779 states that Japheth Brush was named administrator.  The published copy of Records of Old Hopewell prints the name Japhath Brush in connection with the church membership mentioned above.  Japheth or Jephath is a Biblical male name.  A reading of the original records mentioned here shows that in each instance the name is Taphath and her own signature which appears twice in the probate records is a clear and well written Taphath.  Moreover the probate records contain so many supporting "hers" and the language so clearly indicates the name is that of a woman it is difficult to understand how the errors got into print.  It is frequently stated in print that Bathsheba Sexton married Israel Brush (Supplement to the Higgins Gen., and elsewhere) thought Charles Sexton's will shows his daughter Bathseba as wife of _______ Hill."

"247.  ISAAC BRUSH (Israel 4, Timothy 3, Thomas 1&2), born say 1759, probably in Dutchess Co. N.Y., is listed as a soldier in both Weissenfell's and Pawling's levies, which were organized late in the Revolution.  An undated roll lists Isaac Brush as a deserter from Major Elias Benachoten's batallion of Col. Willect's two and three year men.  This must have been a date after April 1781, when Benschoten joined Willett's new levies.  It seems probable that Brush had been made a prisoner by the British, for on a receipt roll for Weisenfell's levies dated 6 Mar. 1787 credit of L21:13:8 given to Isaac Brush had been assigned to Consider Sturdivant.  On 20 Dec. 1792 Isaac Brush of Maiden Head (Lawrenceville) Hunterdon Co., N. J., gave a mortgage for his house and five acre lot to Joseph Story of Windosr, Middlesex Co., N. J.  No further record found.  He may have removed to Irville, Muskingum Co., Ohio.  Records there have not been searched.

"253.  NEHEMIAH BRUSH (Israel 4, Timothy 3, Thomas 2,1), born 5 Feb. 1777 at Hopewell, Hunterdon Co., N.J., applied for a pension 2 Dec. 1839, age 63, stating he entered the U.S. service at Philadelphia on 26 June 1803 and served on the ships Philadelphia & Constitution until his leg caused his discharge.  On 19 Oct. 1846 ("now past 69"), he filed a second application, stating he was born in Hunterdon Co. (Family Bible record) and enlisted from Hunterdon Co., at Philadelphia on 8 Sept. 1794 as a soldier in Capt. Cornelius Snyder's company of the First Regt. U.S. Infantry.  Later he was transferred to Capt. Lyman's company of the Second U.S. Infantry.  He served three years with Gen. Wayne in the Western Territory and was discharged at Presque Isle, Penn.  In June 1798 he again enlisted in the Second Infantry, serving under Gen. Wilkinson for five years.  He was honorably, discharged at S.W. Point, Tenn.  In June 1803 he enlisted in the U.S. Marines and served under Capt. Osborn on the Ship Philadelphia.  He was on board when the ship was taken by the Turks in Tripoli Harbour.  He was a prisoner in Tripoli for nineteen months and underwent much suffering.  He was discharged at Washington in Nov. 1805.  When with Wayne he cut his leg with an axe and later hurt the injured leg in a cable accident on the Philadelphia, which caused his discharge.  He had never recovered from the injury.  He owned no property and had excellent character letters which showed he had lived in Erie Co., Penn., until 1826.  In 1846 he was residing with his son-in-law (name not given) at Canton, Fulton Co., Ill.*).   Authorities:  20.
