Burial
Research from Deanna Kenney: "...He and his wife, Margaret were originally buried near the fence along the road that runs up the hill to the old Benjamin Brownfield family cemetery in Georges Township, Fayette Co., PA. Around 1965, a coal stripping company accidentally destroyed the original headstones. Because of the isolated location of the original burial site, it was decided to replace the tombstones with a single marker and have it erected on the John Troutman family burial plot in Mt. Moriah Baptist Cemetery...."
