I found my Great grandfather living in Lineville, Clay County, Alabam on the 1900 Federal Census. He was age 13. He was living with his mother, who was widowed and her name on the census as much as I can make out is Samanth, age 49. Can anyone help me. I hope to hear from someone soon.....The fact that they were living in Clay County, Alabama should link them to some Luker line.

Deone I'll pull out my files and check. Can't remember James Madison Brownings father's name, but do have. It's too late to go downstairs and hunt for it now, but will tomorrow. Thanks again, Gloria

You are not intruding at all. We are all in this together, even if we are going in different directions! Can you tell me if there are any Brownings in the Heritage of Tallapoosa County book? I don't have the book, an the libraries here wouldn't have a copy. My grandmother was a Clay County Browning, and my grandfather was a Tallapoosa County Browning. I've been doing some research on my grandmother's side, but haven't gotten to the grandfather side of the Brownings. Any help would be appreciated. My grandfather was John David Browning, Jr., born in Tallapoosa County, AL. Thanks Gloria _rsmmktinc@aol.com_ (mailto:rsmmktinc@aol.com)

Wanda, I don't feel that this is another family group and I will tell you why. 1) James is a long standing namesake in the Browning and McCain families. Both families arrived here approximately around the same time frame, from North and South Carolinas. In our family alone I know definitely there are double cousins of mine, from both Browning and McCain's marrying. The same Dr. Daniel Nolan, had an influence also upon the names of two of my uncles. Daniel Browning, b.1904, his brother next in line, Nolan Browning b. 1907. There were 9 more children that followed. 2) I too have some kin that married a Sarah Frances Browning, in fact that is my mother's name today and she married a James M. Browning... Isaac (Benny) as he was always called, had a younger sister that married into the same McCain's family as he had done by marrying Oralee McCain. They all chose the proper naming methods that had been carried on long before they arrived here in this country. Family names are so very important to consider and use as a method of closing those gaps. Should I dare mention that D word...? That is the DNA =======Should we maybe start one just to see from whence we came.. Ha ha I'm game if the rest of you are interested. There is allot I would love to know about our Browning lines. So much that we don't know, so much lost now. We have the technology folks. Let me know what you all feel about this. Also can't we get kits to use with the female ancestors as well? I'm all for it, let me know whey... thanx Deone\P.S.

That is interesting. My ggrandfather's family lived on the farm in Clay Co all their lives, but everything my grandfather wrote says he was born in Alex City. He later moved to Tallassee, and the rest of the family lived in Alex City. I suppose he could have been named for the doctor who delivered him! Where we got the spelling of Nolon I will never know.

I just took a peek at my Browning files and have a couple of questions. --John Browning born 1802 in North Carolina, died 1885 in Alabama married Jana Hawkins, born about 1801 in Virginia and died about 1890 in Alabama. They were parents of James Madison Browning, born 1824 in South Carolina and died 1910 in Clay County, Alabama. (I do have a lot more details on James Madison than just the years.)-- My only source for the above is an interview with Kiffin Browning in 1990. I feel like the information is correct, but would like a direct source. Does anyone have any? Wanda Craft

Forgive me also for intruding, but there was an Old Doctor Dan Nolen in New Site. We have people in our family named for their doctors. I did a story in the Heritage of Tallapoosa Co on this Nolen family.

Deone: Forgive my intruding on your conversation, but I too was intrigued by the name of James Madison in the Browning line. As you know James Madison McCain was my gg grandfather. My g grandfather, Berry Jackson McCain, named his third son, my grandfather, John Nolon. I have been trying to figure out where the name Nolon comes from (he passed it on to my father, and then to me). No one else among the McCains are called Nolon, but granddad was always called Nolon (he is listed as Nolon in the 1910, 20 and 30 census, not John). His second wife signed her name Mrs. Nolon McCain. It seems there are many McCain-Browning connections, and I wonder if this is another one. This is probably a stretch, but consider: It seems that Issac Browning had a son, whose name I show as Nalen D Browning, born in 1905 (same year as my grandfather). I wonder if I could have this wrong, and perhaps his name was Nolan? If so, I wonder how many other Brownings were named Nolan?

Hello Gloria, It's so good to find you my cousin. This would never have been possible had we not been born at such a wonderful time, as the age of the "Computer and the Internet". Perhaps we will get the opportunity to meet in person some time in the not so distant future. My research finds Issac's father to be" John Browning "out of Ga. and his father (John's) from up in North Carolina. I have the census record of the family when my grandfather was about 8 or 9 yrs of age. The records say John was from Ga. I can't remember exactly where and have not gone and pulled those files yet. I have been working on my grandmother's side of the family, McCain's, and her father's name was in fact James Madison McCain. Funny that you have that name in your records under the Browning's. She was grandpa Issac Browning's wife, Ora Lee McCain-Browning. His birth year was 1886, and he had quite a few brother's and sister's. I have much more on the Browning's, but with not knowing what you do or do not have I need to see whom you are missing or already have in your files. I will get those out and get something together to send to you ,but it will take a few days. I have several files on different sides of both my parents so you see my dilema!! Thanks for writing me back so quick.

Do you have any other Ellis names? I have a book written by Ellises - my grandfather's first wife was an Ellis. Not sure if there are any Clay County ones, but some in Tallapoosa Co.

Deone, I don't remember writing to you, but yes, we are related. Issac Benjamin Browning was the brother of my great grandfather, William Jesse. Their father was James Madison. I am just beginning my Browning research, so any and all info will be greatly appreciated. A distant cousin, Gloria Browning Moyer _rsmmktinc@aol.com_ (mailto:rsmmktinc@aol.com)

I am wondering if any one is aware of any Ellis families that lived in Clay County Alabama during or before the Civil War era. Remember they may spell it Ellis, Elis or whatever and there may be a William Aaron Ellis or someone with one of those names in the their name. Thanks Beverly

Hi, The Bennie Browning, in your note here is, I believe my grandfather, named; Issac Benjamin, b.1886. I can't find anywhere that I responded to your emails, hence the reason for maybe a repeat. I was cleaning out some old files, deleteing and moving things around and ran upon your notes. Please let me know if we have already spoken and the resulting progress that you have acheived with your research. If, that is, we are in fact related. I feel sure that it is the same Browning here. If I may assist you with any info from this end please ask.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/2R.2ADE/490.519.523.588.1 Message Board Post: In a query you posted about this family you mentioned a Sarah Ann Bethany Bruce marrying into your lines. You didn't mention any dates. I have an SA Bruce b. 1872 in Alabama, per the 1880 Clay County (Lineville)Census. The record does not mention male of female. I have never been able to find anything else on this person, but 'her' father was George W Bruce and he is my 2nd great grandfather. Could this be the same person?
