I was just in the small Robert Brownfield, Sr. and Eleanor Sutton Family Cemetery in Smithfield, Fayette Co., Pa (off Main Street or Route 119) a week or so ago. It is in surprisingly good shape. Robert Jr. and Mary Bowell's stones are there and barely readable. Also, Charles Brownfield and Ruth Bowell's sons Zadoc (b.1798) and Alexander (b. 1796) and their wive's stones are still visible, as well as a number of grandchildren, etc. The place is kept mowed and there were even flags and veteran's markers on the veteran's graves.

Both [Robert, Jr. and his father] had served in the Revolution under the jurisdiction of Pennsylvania. Robert, Jr. was one of the 60 men surviving an Indian ambush on the way to Wheeling, West Virginia. He was taken prisoner and finally got home a year later. Robert, Sr. saw his commander Colonel Crawford, another early settler from east of Uniontown, burned at the stake.
