I am looking for information on the Francis Brown who mar. Elizabeth " Betsey " Browning in Knox Co., Tn. on Dec. 31, 1818 . I have seen postings that state Elizabeth Browning b. ca. 1797 Va. was the daughter of James Browning and Elizabeth (?) and that she was the sister of Clarissa Browning who mar. Hugh Leeper Brown . I believe that Francis (Frank) and Elizabeth (Browning) Brown are my g.g.g. grandparents but I have no documented proof of this. These are the names given as the parents of Thomas Henry Brown ,b. Sept. 25, 1830 Tn. (my g.g.grandfather) on his Death Certificate , dated Dec.11, 1913 , he died in Jefferson Co., Ks.. Thomas Henry Brown mar. Emily Rebecca Scrivener Oct. 20, 1853 in Platte Co., Mo. , moving to Leavenworth and Atchison Co.s , Ks. shortly after their marriage. I have a document that was written by a Charles Brown , a grandson of Thomas Henry Brown , and is a recollection of his grandfather's life , ( as he remembered it being told to him ) , he mentions some old rolled up papers, that his grandfather kept in an old Boot Box , which mentioned the marriage of Elizabeth Devine to Frank Browning , stating that they were from Ireland and came to Jamestown , Va. . (no dates given) . He goes on to mention that one of their daughters married a Hugh Brown . ( also no dates given ). I can't verify the accuracy of this letter , but I am assuming that Thomas Henry Brown was relating information about his grandparents , Frank Browning and Elizabeth Devine . Any information on tjis Line would be greatly appreciated . Thank you , Jeff McDonald garaiid@alaska.com
