I have permission from Mary to send this to the Brown list; hope it is of help to someone. From: MaryHul@aol.com (Mary Hulsey) Date: Fri, 26 Jan 2001 08:21:30 EST Will of Joseph Brown--excerpts: ...Of Broad Mouth Creek, Pendleton District, planter, aged 78 years or thereabouts. Wife Mary to have among other things 1/13 share with children. Son David to care for mother and have 400 acre tract where Joseph now lives. Also land purchased from William Reed on Broad Mouth. Also land where Thomas Crow formerly lived on south fork of Broad Mouth. Son James to have 140 acres on south fork Broad Mouth were he now lives and part of Crow land.

William Brown, eldest son of Joseph deceased shall draw lot for his brothers and sisters except Mary who now lives with me and for whom provided separately. Mary to have negro girl Violet. Jemimah, the widow of Joseph. Executors, sons Hugh and David, and friend, neighbor Robert Telford. 17 Jan 1810. Wit: Aaron Broyles, Benjamin Bowen, James Harkin." 1800 Pendleton South Carolina USA census--p. 33, Joseph Brown 12011-30010-00. Note: This Joseph Brown of the will was husband of a Mary Porter and was the father of the Joseph Brown, Jr. who married Jemima Broyles and had, among others, a son named Mackey Brown, b. 1797. Mackey married a woman named Salley Rice and appears on the 1830 Pickens County, SC census, the 1840 Union County, GA, later moved to Lumpkin Co., GA and finally was in 1870 Cherokee County, GA before he died 1874 at Canton, Cherokee County, GA. Mackey Brown was the father of Joseph Emerson Brown, who served as Governor of Georgia during the Civil War and later as a senator. The James Brown, identified as a son in the above Joseph Brown will, is also shown by the will to have had a brother-in-law named Benjamin Starritt. Thus, I believe the below deed pertains to that same James Brown. Pendleton. 9 Jul 1791 Benjamin Starritt to William Hall for 100 pounds, 153 acres in Washington District, on north fork Broadmouth Creek, waters Saluda, part of tract granted William Brown 5 Jun 1786, containing 306 acres.

Recorded 18 Jan 1792. *I have a copy of "Joseph Brown, Early Tennessee Pioneer" in my files; email me at w4ctk@farmerstel.com if you want an attached copy sent to you.
