D. E. BRADY, FORMER COUNTY/OFFICIAL, DIED AT AGE 87.

Douglas Ellinipsico Brady, 87, former member of the County Board of supervisors and for many years county surveyor, died Saturday in Stonewall Jackson Extended Care Facility.

The son of Charles A. Brady and Marie Townsend Brady, he was born May 16, 1883 at Point Pleasant, W. Virginia, where his father, a civil engineer, was working on a railroad bridge across the Ohio River. The Brady's were living at the time in a house called "Ellinipsico", which stood on the site where the Indian Chief Cornstalk and his son Ellinipsico, had been massacred. Thus, the unusual Indian name became associated with the Brady family.

Several years later the family returned to "Mount Pleasant" their property at Buffalo Forge.

On Jan. 1, 1916 D. E. Brady was appointed county surveyor, a post his father had also held. The elder Brady, as surveyor had helped lay out the "boom" town of Glasgow, which had extended, on paper, from Greenlee to the present site of Lone Jack Quarry. The records accumulated through the years from surveying of the father and son touched on almost every piece of property in Rockbridge County.

D. E. Brady retired as county surveyor February. 9, 1948.
Mr. Brady was elected to the Board of Supervisors from Natural Bridge District in 1947. He served two terms on the governing body from 1948 to 1956.

Prior to his service on the Supervisors, he was deputy commissioner of revenue for Natural Bridge District from 1939 to 1948. He also served for a number of years as road commissioner for Natural Bridge District. He had been an elder in Falling Spring Presbyterian Church.

Always interested in new developments and processes, he was one of the organizers and a director of the Farmers' Exchange, which began as a cooperative for buying fertilizer. He was also in the group that formed the Natural Bridge Telephone Company.

He was among the first farmers here to try alfalfa, owned one of the first radio sets in Rockbridge County and installed his own electrical system at Mount Pleasant some years before electric lines were extended throughout the county.

For several generations the Brady name has been associated with Mount Pleasant, one of the most unusual and historic places in the county. It was the home of William Weaver, who operated extensive iron works there at Buffalo Forge. Following the death of his wife, William Weaver asked his niece, who was married to Daniel C. E. Brady, to come from Philadelphia and live at Mount Pleasant. Daniel Brady, who was the grandfather of D. E. Brady, continued the iron business and the property has since been in the Brady family.

D. E. Brady was married in 1910 to Miss. Mary Thompson of Rockbridge, who survives him.

Other survivors include two sons, Douglas E. Brady, Jr. of Lexington and Tate T. Brady of Richmond; four grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

A private funeral was conducted Monday by the Rev. Ray R. Hanson.
