This list is for any Brown. I am suggesting we hear from Ireland Scotland and English as mainly I see Georgia, NC, SC and Virginia. So it would be nice to see anyone who thinks they are or knows they are from these countries. If not that sure would be nice to hear a LOT MORE from the New England States, Ohio, Michigan and Pennsylvania.

Check my website; start with Susan Elizabeth Brown (b. 1791 in Hancock County GA) and work backwards to John Brown (b. ca 1671 in ??). > I got this information from Carol Scott <khaki_scott@yahoo.com> > > http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~unclejoe/people/index3.htm > > Joe Defazio > Uncle Joe's Genealogy > > ---------------------------------------------- > > Message: 2 > Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2009 10:01:47 -0400 > From: <parkerar@nbnet.nb.ca> > Subject: [BROWN] SUGGESTION--- FOR BROWN'S FROM SCOTLAND, IRELAND AND > ENGLAND or you beli > To: <brown@rootsweb.com> > Message-ID: > <20090420140148.RRVR1599.simmts12-srv.bellnexxia.net@simip9-ac.srvr.bell.ca> > > > Thank you Ken for bringing this topic up. I have a suggestion for everyone. For everyone who has an idea that their ancestors came from the above countries why not post your last known ancestor with their brothers and sisters if you know them. If possible a picture of that ancestor. I am out of country and this email will not allow attachments while out of country but I do have another email if anyone thinks they may be related. Although it may be your direct line it would help others to connect the dots. > > I also belong to the Brown DNA and have from almost the start. My brother provided the DNA..have some close ones but no perfect match. In our case it could be because my family and thousands of others who were stationed in CFB Gagetown (Oromocto, N.B.) were sprayed with Agent Orange and many other defoliating chemicals from1956 to 1984. So my brothers DNA could be altered. I have talked to a scientist specializing in Agent Orange in Australia (because of Vietnam) and the head of the DNA project so this possibility. > > My last know male Brown was John Ebenezer Brown born November 17 1822 (some census say 1823) in NY and died May 13 1902 Ingham County USA. He also lived in Toledeo and Richfield Ohio before moving to Michigan. First wife Abigail born abt 1827 NY. Chidren Aaron Carles, John Cyrrus and George H Brown. My greatgrandfather Aaron Charles Brown told my grandfather that we were from Dublin Ireland but I have not found any proof. I believe we may be Scottish possibly via Ireland. Ebenezer is more Scottish than Irish at least that is what I have found and I do know it is a English name as well. > > Carol Brown Parker > > > > > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to BROWN-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message > > > > > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to BROWN-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message >
