I have additional information on my William Thomas Brown. My very elderly Aunt remembered that Ellen was a sister to William Thomas Brown and was like a best friend to my Grandmother Bessie Brown. Ellen went for several visits to Decatur, Illinois. My Grandfather and Ellen "had words" and Ellen never returned. My father said for some reason he thinks that my Grandfather did not live with his parents. I looked at Ancestory.com's 1910 Census to find a Jesse and Martha Brown had children with Ellen and William, but William had NR instead of an age. I am hoping to find a connection. William Thomas Brown b-11/14/1887 or 1889 stated his birthplace as Kentucky stated his birthplace as Powder Mills, Kentucky Stated his parents were Jim Brown and Ermin(a) McKinney Rita L. Coventry
