Where are these Brown's from? My names are close and the birth years are close; but not the same family and I didn't find Alexander in my line I was in hopes though.

Bet. 1822 - 1829, Clinton, Ohio; d. 20 Apr 1889, Washington Twp; Decatur Co; IN. (My Gr Grandfather) ii. REBECCA BROWN, b. 1826, Clinton, Ohio. iii.

Eastern Standard Time, xior@chesapeake.net writes: I have a wonderful hand drawn/written document, 10-inches by 12-inches, similar to a frontispiece of a family bible, on the BROWN family listed below. It would appear to have been created sometime in the 1840s, and added to in the 1850s, based on the hand-writing(s). (as it appears in the document) Mr. Alexander Brown, Born Feb. 4th 1793. Miss Grace Gilmore Born Nov. 13th 1796. Married October 1820 Births Marriages James Brown Jan. 1st 1822 William Brown Feb. 27th 1823 Sept. 8th 1850 Charles Brown Dec. 5th 1824 Margaret Brown May 22nd 1826 July 5th 1849 Philip Brown Jan 15th 1828 Rhoda Brown Nov. 15th 1829 July 3rd 1851 Joseph Brown Jun. 22 1832 Amanda Brown Mar. 31 1834 Mary J. Brown Jan. 10th 1836 Alex. Brown Aug. 5th 1838 Geo. F. Brown Dec. 10 1843 The above document is yellowed with age, has hand-drawn flowers and leaves, is bordered by hand and has quotes from several Bible passages. I have digitized it and will gladly send high-rez copies to any descendants of this couple. Also ... If I can locate a direct-linear descendant of Alexander BROWN, who still carries the BROWN surname, I will pass the original along to them. I have had the document mounted and framed utilizing acid-free materials and UV protected glass to slow the aging process. Alexander BROWN (senior) in the document is my 2gGrandfather.

I have an Alexander Brown b. 1837-8 GA. The only place I have found him to date is on the 1870 Alachua Co. FL census. His wife was Augusta b. 1840 GA. Children: Jackson C., Albert, Susan, Minny, Harriet. Alex was my gg-grandfather and Jackson was my great grandfather. Would your family tree fit mine?

Jim I wish that my Richard Gibson Brown were listed! He remains so elusive! What a treasure you have. Did this line originate in Hampshire Co., VA? I just received a notice from another board of a will for an Alexander Brown. I'd be glad to share if it is the same one and you need it.
