Thanks to all that came to my aid with Gilbert BROWNING. I now know that Gilbert is the son of Elijah BROWNING, born ca 1807 NC and Margaret STEELE born ca 1808, and not Levi BROWNING. Jo

----- Original Message ----- From: Kit & Jo Kramer To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, March 09, 2000 4:36 PM Subject: Gilbert Browning I have list queries before on Samuel S BROWNING born ca 1826 IL, married Martha THORNTON born ca 1823 IL, in Jackson Co, IL Dec 1848. I have been told that Gilbert BROWNING born ca 1808 NC, died Nov 1883, FCI, married Elizabeth ? ca 1825, born ca 1808, are the parents of Samuel. I have also been told that Gilbert BROWNING is the youngest son of Levi BROWNING born April 1758, VA, and Margaret PURNELL. I can't find anything to connect Samuel to Gilbert, or Gilbert to Levi. Gilbert BROWNING settled in what is now Six Mile Township, and received 600 acres of land from the government. He lived his entire life here. Gilbert and Elizabeth are supposed to be buried at Browning Cemetery near now Royaling, Illinois. With this information can anybody help me to connect the players together? Jo
