No, David Brainerd never married. He was very fond of Jonathan Edwards's daughter Jerusha, however. (This was also the name of his sister...so not to be confused). Jerusah Edwards was only 17 when Brainerd was invited to the Edwards home. He was dying of tuberculosis and she tried unsuccessfully to nurse him back to life. He died when he was 29...in the Edwards's home.
