I have 3 separate BROWN lines and this is the third of the deadends: Mary Catherine BROWN, b. 1825, AL. She married Francis Marion "Doc" SPARKS in 1845. Their marriage license was issued in Chambers County but was filed in Tallapoosa County. The SPARKS family lived in Tallapoosa, so it is possible (probable?) that Mary Catherine BROWN's family lived in Chambers County. Many of the SPARKS family moved to NorthEast Texas. Mary Catherine BROWN SPARKS died in Hopkins County, TX in 1910 and is buried in Cypress Cemetery in Franklin County beside her husband and others of the SPARKS line. Any help with Mary Catherine's parents?
