Roy, I am interested in your ancestor, Fred Brown. We have been searching for our Fred Brown for years and have nothing concrete. Several hints but thats all! Is there anything at all that you could tell us about your Fred? Is it possible that he could have been James Frederick Brown? That is a possibility for our Fred. The one thing we do know is that he was in Alabama for several years,,,,,about 1900-1908. As a sideline,,,my husband and his father were Roy Browns. Could thatbe a family name???
