• Notes

  Muriel Brisbin Morrison said in a letter dated 18 March 1996 that James Sanks Brisbin was the son of Ezra and Margaret Packer Brisbin. General James Sanks Brisbin played a prominent part in the Indian wars and the Civil War. The Centre County Historical Society sent me a photocopy from the Historical Society of Montana, Helena which appeared in the Froid Tribune 2 March 1928 and closes with the following: "General Brisbin is described as a rather portly man with a stentorian voice, very effective on the platform. His wife, who was a beautiful woman, was a social leader. They had several daughters just growing into young womanhood at the time they were stationed in Montana. General Brisbin was transferred about 1885 or 1886 to the east. He died at Philadelphia in 1892 at the age of 55. The article does not mention any lineage.
