Hi Jo, I am preparing manuscripts for my vol. 2 on the Brownings and need your help. On the John Browning, died 1857 Elisha (Elijah?) died between 1850-60, and/or Gilbert who died 1880-90, Franklin Co., IL, do you have copies of their wills/estate records, etc.? In my vol. 1, John is #1760b, Gilbert is #3006 and Elisha is #3007. As of that vol. we were not sure of the relationship between them. I thought Gilbert was a son of Elisha, but have not proven any of them as yet. I would like to do that for vol. 2. After studying the census records, 1810-50, on John & Elisha, I think that Gilbert may have been a son of John. John has a son on the 1820 cen., Franklin Co., b. 1805-10, that I cannot account for, and Gilbert "fits" the time frame (he b. c1808). No census record I found on Elisha/Elijah has a son of that time frame. Gilbert is on the 1830 cen., Franklin Co. I have several updates on what we put into vol. 1. When I get it done I will send it to you for your review. Thanks. Jim Richey
