My great grandfather's name was Thomas Harris Brown, b. March 25, 1823 & d. Jan 17, 1910)....I have no information about his family and would love to find my Brown ancestors. . The census' says Thomas Harris Brown was born in VA was an Overseer in Nelson Co. VA at the age of 29 per census. He married into an Albemarle Co., Va family (Hamner & Herndon) Elizabeth Marshall Hamner, daughter of Jesse B. Hamner & Sarah Witherall Herndon in 1853 in Nelson Co. VA. His first child Thomas Elliott was born in VA & then the family, with Sam M. Brown (brother? b. 1823. also in VA), seem to have moved to Looxahoma, De Soto, MS where their other children were born. Other Virginians listed in MS at the time were... a Thomas G. Brown b. VA (62 yrs, Arkabutla, MS) and a W.(probably Wesley) H. Brown b. VA (28, Hernando MS) were in DeSoto MS in 1860 as well.
