This is another Brown family I found a year ago but didn't get a reply. Hopefully this will get a response. Samuel Brown b. 1777 NC son of Benjamin Brown and Susannah (White) Brown married Margaret "Peggy" Gillham dau of John Gillham and Sarah Clark Gillham. This couple had 14 children: Benjamin b. <1797 Thomas b. 1799 Daniel b. < 1801 Sarah b. <1803 Susan b. 1805 Samuel Park b. 1810 Ryderus Clark b. 1812 Lydia b. <1814 James b. <1816 John Sidney b. <1818 William M. Brown 19 Jul 1819 Vedeen, IL d. 1890 Jefferson Kansas m. Margaret Claywell, they had 8 children (Samuel, William Jasper, Josephine, Lucinda, Joel, Stephen, Louisa, Daniel, Albert Lincoln). Park b. 1820 Clark b. 1820 Sidney b. 1820 I found this at Ancestry.com and contacted the lister but never got a reply. So I don't know how accurate the info is. I really would like to know something on this family. Hoping to hear from someone, Carol Brown Hoskins Buffalo, WY hoskins@trib.com

John Mellick, I do have the 1840 Coles Co., IL census book. There are 7 Beals listed on it. Would you like that info or do you have it already? James Wiswall, Have you checked the Morgan Co., IL census? (I personally do not have a copy) It lists William T. Brown as well as several other William Browns from 1830 to 1860 dealing with Jacksonville township as well as Waverly and Arcadia. Mary Myers, Have you checked the 1860 Grundy Co., IL census. there are several William Browns listed there for 1860 only. Felix, Highland & Vienna townships. I do not have that census.

Brownie, Have you looked at the 1880 Cook Co., IL census page 36 & 497 different areas of Chicago. I do not have info for Cook Co. at all. Just found this at Ancestry.com.

In searching for my Miller family, I came across this Brown. He was listed with the Millers on the Bois Bruel Census in either Il or Missouri. Now I forgot which. Peter Miller age 32 born Germany Dorhuler Miller age 22 born Missouri Hubert Miller age 1 born Missouri Mary Gibony age 48 born Tenn Neal Brown age 21 born Tenn. These are my Millers, perhaps this Brown was related somehow. Hope that someone recognizes them. Karen Moore Kerr

Looking for information on Jefferson Brown born 1829 in OH. Moved to MO in 1847. Married Martha or Maggie Cobb (she was a widow with 3 children William Cobb, Lucy -married name Huston,Sadie-married nameCarper. Jefferson and Martha were married in 1872 somewhere around Alexandria. My grandfather, Abel Calvin Brown, was born in Clark county MO in 1874. Jefferson had at least one sister, in his obituary dated February1907 she was listed as Mrs. H. A. Boatman. I believe her name was Kate. His mothers name is thought to be Charlott. I have know clue as to his father's name and have come to the conclusion maybe there really are UFO's and they just dropped Jefferson off, I can't seem to find any information on him at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Alice

Johnny Bob Beaird, Have you looked at 1860 Carroll County, IL census page 1006 York township at ancestry.com there is a listing for Jehu Brown. It might give you a clue if you haven't seen it. The only other info I have on this family is what was sent to me last year and almost word for word what you sent yesterday and today. I am sorry but I will keep the info in mind. I do know that there was a James Brown in Macoupin Co., IL on the 1840 census 1 male (20-30) and 1 female (20-30). Maybe a connection to your Brown. Carol Brown Hoskins Buffalo, WY hoskins@trib.com

My Brown's left Ohio in 1870 and ended up in Illinois's Effingham co. They are in the 1880 census for Illinois and in Ohio for the 1860 census. James Brown father and son John L Brown who married Sarah Jane Root were living in Beecher City in 1880. I have acomplete line after that nothing about Ohio or other relatives besides one sister Mitilda Reynolds. If anyone has a thing to add or can tell me James Browns wife name besides Elizabeth please let me know.Thank You FMcKee

KEN, I will keep a look out but I am sorry to say I have limited my IL research to just the Southern half of IL. I have purposely stayed away from Cook Co., IL. It is too massive for me at this time. However, I realize I just might have to break down and do just that. Several of James & Kizziah's 7 sons that married listed on 1900 census that their parents were from MO. Where that idea came from I can not figure out. But it tells me that there just might be some kind of connection to a MO family of Browns. My Browns were in Saline Co., AR by 1846 and on the Census there in 1850, then on to CA in 1852. Where they remained. So the Browns I am interested in finding, are all the ones that were in IL prior to 1838 when my James got married. He wasn't very helpful in listing his place of birth other than on 2 census reports. 1850 he said (or someone said OH) 1860 he was listed as being born in KY. He was born in 1816, possibly in November. But I will keep a look out for your James Oswald Brown. One never knows where information might show up.
