Notes - From THE WYOMING AND LACKAWANNA VALLEYS, pp. 200-201:
"Lieutenant Garret Brodhead, sixth child of Captain Daniel and Hester (Wyngart) Brodhead, born Marbletown, Ulster county, New York, January 31, 1733, died Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, 1840 [must be a typo]; married, March 15, 1759, Jane Davis. He enlisted in the New York Colonial troops as sergeant April 4, 1758; promoted lieutenant Second regiment, Ulster county troops, 1760. He located in Smithfield township, Northampton county, Pennsylvania, 1770-72, as he was taxed there in 1772, "Garret Brodhead, £7, 10s,"and in 1785, £5, 4s, 8d for six hundred acres of land, five horses, seven cattle. He was in service on 'the frontier during the Revolution, and held a lieutenant's commission. Lieutenant Garret and Jane (Davis) Brodhead had children: 1. John, born March 3, 1766, died September 5, 1821. 2. Daniel, died unmarried. 3. Richard, born July 31, 1772, of whom later. 4. George, died unmarried. 5. Elizabeth, born 1775, died 1802; married Dr. Francis Joseph Smith. 6. Rachel born 1787, married David Dills. 7. Samuel, born 1779, married Hannah Shoemaker." Note: The Brodhead Family Association's Volume I of "The Brodhead Family" (p. 72) records a 1st marriage circa 1755 to Cornelia Schoonhoven, daughter of Henricus Schoonhoven and Johanna Decker. They record the 2nd marriage (to Jane Davis) as taking place on 11 Aug 1759 (Kingston Reformed Dutch Church Hoes #1350).
Founding owner of Wheat Plains Farm, purchased after the War. Garret worked as a farmer and schoolteacher. The Farm remained in the Brodhead family well into the 1900s, leaving the family only once during that time. It is now within the Delaware Gap Recreational Area (owned and presumably maintained by the US Government).
