Hi Barbara/Rose. My BROWNs were born Nova Scotia, too. I have identified two siblings: David BROWN b 1811 and My great, Mary Ann BROWN, b 1813. I do not know their parents, except that they were also born in Nova Scotia. Mary Ann/Marian married Eli SIMONS/SIMMONS/SIMMONDS/SYMONDS/SEAMANS/ETC before 1835. David BROWN married Nancy PETERSON before 1832. David lived for a while in Orleans, Jefferson County, New York and then migrated to Huron County, Michigan. Mary Ann first appears in Sanilac County, Michigan per her husband's land record in 1857. I wish I knew more of their earlier years and their parents' info. Donna Michigan
