John "Red" Brown married Margaret Hodges Brooks, dau of William Brooks. They came to AL (Blount Co) in ca 1818 with group from SC. They settled in the Elyton area. Then the Browns went to Tuscaloosa and finally to TX in ca 1836. Especially looking for info on John Brown's parents. Any info is appreciated. Thanks, Bob Pfennig in New Braunfels, TX
