Posted on: Etowah Co. Al Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Al/Etowah/10806 Surname: ------------------------- Sorry about slow answer. Email didn't go through earlier and I haven't worked on family for few months. Jasper Brown family doen't match my line but I have gaps. I believe I have two Brown lines. The LOCKLEAR family I am looking for may not have been to Arkansas. However some BROWN in-laws may have lived there. There was travel between Ok, Ark, and Al. John Willis LOCKLEAR (1861-1923) may have been born Ark. since I have not located him on Al. or Ga. Census 1900 and earlier. John Willis LOCKLEAR married PATSY BROWN(1868-1934) in Etowah County, Alabama March 25, 1886. After living there, they moved to Floyd, Co. Georgia. (Lavendar and Rome) Patsy's mother was ELISABETH(1842-1904) and father John or George Washington BROWN. Her stepfather was John HALBURN in 1900. ELISABETH BROWN is my grtgrdmother. I am trying to prove her mother and sister are SALLY (BATTLES) BROWN and MAHALA (BROWN) md 1st BATTLES 2nd HIGGINS, who are buried in Arkansas. I am also looking for John and Patsy Locklear's grandchildren to see if they have BROWN family tree. Children of John Willis and Patsy (Brown) Locklear: William M. Minnie V'termie (copied as found) Emma John B. Locklear Geneva Locklear Elenora Edward Frank Locklear Hopefully this is helpful. Let me know if connection works out. Best wishes, N. Habiger
