My great grandfather William Ansell George was born to Isaac George and Mary Funk George around 1869, in Jackson Twp, Vinton County, Ohio. He eventually married a Sarah Brown in 1898, who may have been the daughter of T.J. and Mary A. Brown of Falls Twp, Hocking County, Ohio. Mary Funk was born in 1839, probably in Falls Twp, Hocking County, Ohio. She may have been the child of Joseph Funk and Sarah Miller, who had married in Muskingham County, Ohio, in 1822. Isaac George had been widowed by Catharine Rose George earlier in the 1860's. They had resided in Perry County, Ohio during the 1840 census. They were married in Morgan County, Ohio in 1833. I'm trying to trace the Ansell family connection, assuming it's the maiden name of someone's mother(that is redundant, isn't it?). If something looks familiar, please e-mail me at msb@core.com, thanks, Mike Beckley

Also, someone told me that if men married much younger wives, sometimes they "deducted" a few years from their age (which I had never even thought of). Also, the numbers may not be read correctly...such as 3 instead of 8 or 5. I have even found where the sex is not correct. I try to view the original and decide for myself if the age is written clearly enough to be sure-especially if I have taken the information from a book or someone else's work. The census has a lot of information, but not all of it is correct. Don't know if this is of any help but do wish you the best in your research. Lana Floyd Alabama USA searching James S.

Are there any descendants of William and Elizabeth Brown who settled in Cartwright Twp., Durham Cty., Ontario c. 1837? They are buried in Devitt's Cemetery, Blackstock. Ron

I am looking for the grandmother of my husband, all we know is that her name was Molly Brown, she first married ? Bowlds, and her second marriage was to John Melton. They lived near Carmi, IL, and he worked for a RR co. as a laborer. Time was around the 1890's to 1908/1911;she died when the children were young and they were put out in neighbors' homes. Thanks, Wilma wawdc@vincennes.net

Are there any other family researchers of: Daniel Brown one of the first settlers in the Lycoming, PA area. He had two daughters Margaret and Elizabeth who married two Benjamin brothers. There are probably other siblings. Elizabeth married David Benjamin This family suffered losses during an Indian Raid in 1778. Including Daniel Brown and his wife who burned to death in a fire set by the Indians. I know very little and would appreciate any help.

Once again I am looking for my Brown line in Jersey, Social Circle or Walnut Grove, Walton Co., Ga. Several of this line or buried at the Walnut Grove Methodist Church. Two of the Brown siblings married Two Allen siblings. Any connections out there?

I haven't posted for a while, so am trying once again to find any information on MINOR C. BROWN. Minor is buried in Blackjack Cemetery, Burleson Co., TX. On his tombstone is: M.C. BROWN, BORN Dec. 3, 1864, DIED May 10, 1901, Thy Trials ended, thy rest is won. The 1900 Milam Co., TX census shows that he was born in MS, wife Sarah Roxie Burrough also b. in MS. Child, James Richard b. in TX in 1898. Minor was a farmer, but family lore has it that he was closely related to church activities, possibly as a preacher. Any info will be appreciated. Hazel

William Brown served in the War of 1812 under Maj Dinkens. He was discharged in October 1818 from Pensacola, Florida. William received Bounty land from his service in the war. His land was issued in Arkansas in the county of Jackson (could have originally Independence or Lawrence county since the county lines changed so often). His discharge papers said that he was 32 years old at the time of discharge. At the Archives this past weekend, I found a deed where in 1825 William Brown had sold land in Independence County, Arkansas to a Patrick Quiqley of St. Louis Missouri. The deed said, "William Brown, late of the Army of the United States and Rosey, his wife" sold this land for $300. Mention also in this deed were John Rogers, James Gaily, and Jesse Parker. Now my delemia... I have been researching my William Brown, who has resided in the State of Arkansas since at least 1822 in the counties of Independence and Jackson. With all my research I have found only one William Brown in this area. There are other Brown's, but in other counties and no other Williams. According to my research (through census dates only), my William Brown is 10 years younger than the William mentioned above who served in the War of 1812. I cannot figure out how to resolve this 10 years age difference. Maybe someone can help me with this. William & Rosey's children were - Cornelius (b. 1818 state unknown), Emily Nancy (b. 1822 Newport, Jackson County, Arkansas), Atlantic (b. 1825 Arkansas), Newton John (b. 1827 Arkansas) and Richard Jasper (b. 1828 Arkanas). Rosey apparently died between 1830 and 1840. In 1840, William was married to (Mrs. Mary Churchman). William and Mary's children were: Mary A. Elizabeth Churchman (b.1838 TN - stepdaughter, deaf), Leodicea Pacific (b.1843 Arkansas), John A. (b.1851 Arkansas), and Sarah S. (b.1856 Arkansas). William died after the 1860 census and before the 1870 census. Any suggestions I can get in finding William and Rosey and also with the difference I have in William's age would be very much appreciated. ----- Original Message ----- From: <BROWN-D-request@rootsweb.com> To: <BROWN-D@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, March 05, 2001 4:00 AM Subject: BROWN-D Digest V01 #62

Hello Listers, All BROWN surnames (approx 150) listed in the Delaware County, Indiana Census for 1870 can be found at website below. They are a little untidy until they are formatted to html, but useful non-the-less. ----Indiana Heritage---- http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~acorntree/index.html Enjoy, Virginia

Hello Listers, As of yet, I have not been able to find out what I need to know regarding Hiram BROWN and his family, here is what I am interested in. According to the information I have, Hiram BROWN, born abt 1792, died 1862, Cobb Co. GA., married first Sarah CLAY. Children of Hiram BROWN and Sarah CLAY 1. Mary Ellen BROWN 2. William Sumpter BROWN 3. Hiram Leroy BROWN 4. Sarah Ann BROWN 5. Robert BROWN 6. James Harry BROWN 7. Isabella BROWN 8. Augustus Cicero BROWN 9. Sarah "Sallie" BROWN 10. Amanda Elizabeth BROWN I am mainly interested in the fifth child, Robert BROWN. Robert BROWN married Susan CONINE abt. 1849. I found an entry in the Cobb Co. GA 1850 Census. BROWN, Robert age 25 b. SC Susan age 21 b. did not give a state BROWN, Hiram age 58 b. NC #1317 Deborah age 48 b. NC James age 23 b. NC Augustus age 18 Isabella age 21 b. NC Sarah age 16 Children of Robert BROWN and Susan CONINE 1. Mary Ann BROWN, b. 1849 d. 1896 m. Alfred P. TUCKER 2. Hiram Richard BROWN, b. 1851 d. 1932 m. Belinda JORDAN 3. Henry Clay BROWN, m. Emma COX 4. Sarah J. "Sallie" BROWN, m. Berryman LYLE 5. William Marion BROWN, m. Lucy Jane THOMPSON 6. Martha Elizabeth BROWN, 7. Susan Ellen BROWN 8. Robert Joseph BROWN I would like to know where Robert and Susan raised their children. According to the information I have, Robert died abt 1864. Did Robert die in the Civil War? Susan as far as I can tell did not remarry, she died abt 1900. Where is Susan buried? There are eight children listed for Robert and Susan, surely there are some descendants of those eight children, where are they? I'm not positive but I don't think Robert and Susan stayed in Cobb Co. GA., but I could be wrong. Other then finding them listed in the Cobb Co. GA 1850 Census, I can't find any further information about them, I've pretty much hit a dead end. Would appreciate any help at all, or if you know of some of their descendants that might be able to provide more information, I would sure appreciate it. Thanks, SHEILA

Most of us searching for ancestors prior to 1800s realize that middle names or initials were lacking , and are painfully aware that the same names were recycled ad nauseam. In searching for the Williams', Henrys', James', etc in my Brown line, I was surprised to find two , BARNABY and MORDACAI , that are not common names , and wonder if anyone on the list can identify either of them ? Your answer could be the break I need to penetrate my 30 year old brick wall , since both Alleythear and Henry are known family ancestors. Barnaby Brown m Alleythear Green in Wake Co NC 1787 Barnaby Brown is listed on the 1800 census in Pendleton Dist. SC Can any one confirm that this is one and the same person ? Deed Abstract for Spartanburg Co SC 1804 Henry Brown to Rueben Harrison; sold (1) 48 ac where MORDUCA Brown lives and (2) 40 ac where Henry Brown lives; on E side of Kelsoe's Cr. Can anyone tell me how (or IF ) Henry and Morduca are related ? Thanks for your help, Marietta

Seeking family information on descendants of Zachariah Brown who married Susanna Rippeto in Amherst Co. VA 1798. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank You Bobby

Brown Researchers: You just might find that elusive Brown in the Muncie, Indiana City Directory 1907-1908. Check out "Just Lists"-Delaware County. Brown surname only. The Directory lists family members separately so be sure to pay attention to the home addresses. I "gathered up" one whole family that way. ----Indiana Heritage---- http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~acorntree/ Have fun, Virginia
