Elijah Brush
Elijah Brush (c. 1772 – 1813) was a lawyer and politician from Detroit, Michigan.
==Early life==
Elijah Brush was born in Bennington, Vermont in approximately 1772, the son of Colonel Nathaniel Brish and Samantha Parker.〔 Brush graduated from Dartmouth College and came to Detroit in 1798.
Brush married Adelaide Askin (c. 1779 – 1859), daughter of John Askin, in 1802.〔 The couple had three sons and a daughter〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=History of Detroit.com )〕 who survived their father: Edmund Askin (b. 1802), Charles Reuben (b. 1807), John Alfred (b. 1811), and Archange (b. 1813).〔 John Askin was a British subject, and when Detroit was turned over to American control, he moved across the Detroit River to Canada, leaving behind his farm, "Private Claim #1," which was immediately adjacent to Detroit.〔
Elijah and Adelaide moved onto her father's farm, and in 1806 the Brushes purchased it for $6000; the property eventually became known as the Brush Farm.〔 With careful administration, Brush increased the value of the farm and made his heirs wealthy.〔 In particular, in the 1850s, Edmund Brush began developing sections of the property into the fashionable Brush Park; the street names Edmund, Alfred, Adelaide, and Brush were named by Edmund after family members.
