Branson went to the barn from house to feed the stock. His wife went to the barn a few minutes later, where she found him lying, dead. He was kicked just above the heart, a bruised place being the only evidence of a cause for death from violence. the county coroner gave a verdict of accidental death. Branson is survived by a wife and three brothers---- former Treasurer George Branson, of Rockville; Ellis Branson, of Mecca; Thomas Branson, of Dana; and one sister, Mrs. Crooks, of Bellmore.

Great idea! We just should not use ROLL CALL in the subject line. Surname, Location and date would be fine. Here's mine (and one of my "brick walls"): Liner Willis BRANSON was born ca 1790 in KY (or VA). His parents were (probably) Amos BRANSON and Sarah TIMMONS. He may have had a brother Bayliss, and possibly another brother Armistead. Liner and Bayliss evidently married sisters: Sarah and Ann TIMMONS - daughters of Capt. George TIMMONS and Rosa ASHBY. Liner's daughter, Paulina (b. Sept. 16, 1807 KY - my 3g grandmother) m. Joshua R. BROWNING and moved to MO after 1845 as did other BRANSONS.
