David was the sixth of nine children born into the home of Hezekiah and Dorothy (Mason) Brainerd. Details of his childhood are scanty, but he grew up in a country house just above the west bank of the Connecticut River, two miles outside of Haddam. His father was a country squire, a local justice of the peace, and a Christian, as was his mother. His father died when he was nine and the death of his mother in March, 1732 brought additional great grief to 14 year old David, who was by then seeking to find what conversion was all about. From ages 15 to 19 he lived with his sister Jerusha who had just married Samuel Spencer. In April, 1738, he returned to Haddam to live and to study with the pastor of his youth, Phineas Fiske. Brainerd soon became a serious student of the Bible, and ignored the other pleasures in which most young people were participating. Fiske died in the fall, and Brainerd, like Luther, continued desperately seeking peace with God. By February, 1739, he was setting aside whole days of secret fasting and almost incessant prayer as he strove for acceptance with God.

Jabez Brainard, born 1759, son of Simon and Hepzibah Spencer Brainard, a soldier of the American Revolution, rests in Erie street cemetery at the right of the main drive, and not far from the Erie street entrance. His brother Simon Brainard was a lieutenant in the Conn. Continentals. His brother Jeptha Brainard served seven years in the revolutionary army. His brother Asa Brainard also was a soldier of the American Revolution.
The parents of these patriots lived in Chatham, Conn. Soon after the close of the war, Jabez Brainard married Lucy Bingham, daughter of Deacon Elijah and Sarah Jackson Bingham, and removed to Leamsted, N. H., where he lived many years. He was a leading member of the Presbyterian church of that town, and was familiarly known as "Deacon Brainard."
His only son Nathan Brainard established himself in business in Cleveland, and hither at the death of his wife came Jabez Brainard seeking and receiving in the loneliness of his declining years the ministrations that only kinship and love can bestow. And in this city, in 1852, in the once well known Brainard residence on Sheriff street, he died aged 94. A large part of the history of Cleveland is to be found in the lives of many old families of this city allied through marriage to the descendants of this revolutionary hero.
Deacon Jabez Brainard was of slight build, and of medium height. He had blue eyes that twinkled with mirth, or shone with intelligence. He was exceedingly original in his speech, w?thal a Puritan by inheritance and instinct, a markedly pious man even in the days when irreligion was rare in the community. His desk, a beautiful piece of Colonial furniture, stood in the library of his grandson, the late Prof. George Brainard, and doubtless is still treasured and used by the family.

In another of his series of Cleveland's Revolutionary War hero's, Mr.
Kelley discusses Jabez Brainard, last of the suviving veterens.
The Last Leaf--
Jabez Brainard, forebear of Cleveland's musical family,born in
Connecticut in 1758, died in Cleveland in 1852, probably was the cities
last surviving veteren of the Revolutionary War. He was buried in Erie
Street Cemetery to the right of the main drive, until his remains were
removed to Lake View Cemetery.
Ninety-four when he died, his life was a story of military service,
family life in a New England town, as leader of a church and, finally of
residence in Cleveland, where he marched with other white-haired
veterens on Public Square. The date of his death, as entered by Ohio's
Military Register and approved by the State, is at variance with the one
I give. But mine, from cemetery records, undoubtedly is correct. Honah
Hanchett is said by these military records to have died here in 1860.
An orderly, in the Revolution, he lived to be 92. But his buriel place
is listed unknown and there is no record showing he lived here.
Jason Robbins of Solon, lived to be 90, and Obidiah Cooper,buried in
Warrensville, to be 92. Josia Wicox of Brecksville lived to be 91, while
Jared Farrand, buried in Fairview, and John Sheppard of North Royaton,
passed the century mark, but these lived without the city limits.
The " Deacon "--
Jabez Brainard was the son of Simon and Hepzibah Spencer Brainard of
Chatham, Conn. His brother, Simon, was Lieutenant in the Continnentials
with whom brother Asa was a marine. With peace, Jabez wedded Lucy
Bingham, daughter of Deacon Elijah and Sarah Jackson Bingham, and for
many years resided in Lemsted, N.H. Leader of the Presbyterian Church,
he was " Deacon Brainard." His son, Nathan, came here in the
mid-thirties and opened a music store on Superior Street. He bought
land on the east side of Sheriff (E. 4th) Street an with his four sons,
built a home. Like myself, many will recall the later quaint Brainard
brick terrace with mounting steps and areas on the site of McCrory's
west entrance.
When his wife died in New England, Jabez came here to pass his last
years with son Nathan. " Deacon" Jabez Brainard was of slight build and
medium height with humorous, inteligent blue eyes. H? possessed a
Puritanic manner of speaking with the piety and religious convictions of
a day when there were few churches. His ornamental colonial desk was
long treasured in the library of his grandson. Prof. George Brainard.
His desendants were many. The late Miss Annie Brainard, a prominent
member of Trinity Cathedral congregation, whose home was on Kenilworth
Drive, was a great granddaughter. Her father, Silas, and her
grandfather, Nathan, built Melodeon Hall on the site of the Wilshire
Building. Later they renamed it Brainard's Hall. All four grandsons
married, had families and were well known. Silas married Emily C. Mould,
daughter of Henry Mather, married her sister, Laura V. Mould. Prof.
George W., noted organist and music teacher, married Louise Hills,
daughter of Nathan C. Hills; Joseph Mather, the fourth granson, married
Helen Cushmen Hills, her sister, and their only child, Nelly Brainard,
became Mrs.Wilson Black Chisholm and all their decendants are all sons
and daughters of the Revolution.
Amos Brainard, buried in old Brookmere Cemetary, Brooklyn, settled
in the southwestern part of the city. Mrs. Perry Geller,1637 Holyrood
Road, tells me she is directly descended from a brother of Jabez. Her
ancestry traces back through her father, George Brainard, to Enoch
Brainard, veterinary surgeon in the Civil War. His father, Enoch
Southworth Brainard, settled in Newburg and married his cousin, Abigail
Brainard, daughter of Silas, a son of the Revoluntion.
The removal of Jabez Brainard's remains to Lake View Cemetery took
place in 1915. He rests in his original Tombstone, near the man
entrance.

Dr Brainard:
Herewith I enclose you my commission of Brigadier General which I desire you file away with the others. I do not know whether you have written me or not lately for I have really been so busy with my brigade that I have not been able to go into town. If I can find time I shall try to get to the city today when I shall hope to hear from you. I am in camp about six miles from the city on the Bladensburg road & pretty near the old battle ground of that name ? a name which Americans do not care to remember. I have now the full machinery of my command in motion with the exception of my staff. These I shall appoint as soon as I can determine on the proper persons to hold the positions. I have done nothing in regard to Orville. I shall not until after I learn his wishes - It is my wish that he should join me but in matters of this kind I do not feel disposed to advise you. It is for you and Mary to determine.
I have four good regiments tho they require discipline & instruction before I can place much reliance on them under fire. I have the 1st and 11th Regt from Mass, the 2d N Hampshire & the 26th Penn. ? & not the N.Y. Regts as was at first contemplated. I am now endeavoring to make good use of the time in preparation.
It is with deep regret that I learn of Lyons death ? for with the exception of McClelan he is the only officer who has done anything worthy of mention from the [beginning] of the rebellion. I suppose you remember him. He made some of the elements required for a popular and successful commander. Stupendous preparations are now making in the vicinity for another advance. I do trust & believe that something will come from it besides disaster. No movement however will be likely to be made inside of from four to six weeks.
Give my best love to all. I write in haste as you will conclude when I tell you that I have almost four thousand men to look after without a single staff officer. Will write you as often as I can.
Yrs truly,
Jos. Hooker | Orville Velora BRAINERD
