Posted on: Amador County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ca/Amador/331 Surname: BROWN, PETERSON ------------------------- I am looking for an address or source who can direct me to finding out about a death of JAMES BROWN in Jackson, Amador County, CA 5th of May 1870. this info I obtained from a publication in the Sacramento Bee 8th of May 1870. I do not know if this is my 2nd Great Grandfather. My James Brown married Kizziah PETERSON in Coles County, IL in July 1838. They were the parents of George Washington, William Thomas, Issac Francis, John M., James Havey (my line), Squire A., Sarah A., Edward A., Andrew J. and 2 girls who died very young, Mary A., and Sophia. James and Kizziah lived for about 7 years in AR before moving to San Joaquin CA in 1852. Any help in this search for James BROWN b. about 1816 would be greatly appreciated. Carol
