Hello Brown Researchers; Someone made the statement that one must kiss a few toads to find their prince. Well I will kiss a few toads and send anyone a picture of same if they will find my ggfather, William Robert ( called Billey) Brown b abt 1825 in SC. according to census records. He was on the 1860 census of Rutherford Co. NC. with wife Dicey Earle Brown and children. They were living next door to Dicey's parents, Balus/Bayliss and Sarah James Earle. On the 1870 census of Dyer Co. Tn. Billey and Dicey are listed with all seven children. Dicey died in 1872, after all children were grown Billey remarried. Have been searching for nearly fourty years, cannot find who the parents of this William R. Brown were. Thanks very much......Grover Pope in Dyer Co. TN.
