Owned and lived on the land willed to him by his father Benjamin. He signed the "Association" in Brookhaven Town, in support of the Provincial Congress of New York and the Continental Congress, thus entitling his descendants to join the Sons of the Revolution or the Daughters of the Revolution.

      Children as named in his will:
      1. George, b. Sept 17, 1779, ancestor of the Robinsons, Hamlyns, and other old Bellport families through marriages of his daughters into these families.

      5. Dorothy, who m. s Randall
      6. Sabra ("Sabery") probably d. unmarried.

      He (Gersham) seems to have been the first one of his line to have dropped the final e from his name, spelling it just plain Brown.
