James Dungan & Mary Brooks m. 1790

Per Justice, I show James born in Montogomer co, IN, also was present in Washington PA census in 1790 with Mary and 4 children: Ann Rebecca (Becky), Mary Ann, Nancy, and Elizabeth so probably married earlier than1790. I show James as son of Levi b.1740, d. 1825 in WV, m. 2/1/1764 to Mary DAVIS. Owned Camel Tavern Inn, voed to DEL in 1771, moved to Beaver Co, PA in 1772. Mary studied medicine with relative Dr. Benjamin RUSH. Levi served in militia in 1778. There is an interesting story about Mary saving a man's life through her medical training. Levi is son of James L. Sr. and Rebecca WELLS DUNGAN.
