On the 1870 census of Chattooga Co., GA a Hiram Gillean age 63 is shown on census indexes as living in Broomtown PO area. Is there any information about Gilleans in the book that has been discussed at length on this site? Does anyone know anything about this Gillean? Thank you. Sybil Chapman

Would like to find out who Temperence was before marrying DCO. Wyndell

I to have just started to research this family, which is on my wife's side. John Marshall

As a matter of fact, there are some Browns who live in this community. I don't know if there is a connection, they haven't been here too long, as in long, long ago. Charlotte

No, really it is nowhere near Trion. It is west of Summerville. I don't know if there is a connection. I just noticed the name Dorsett and thought I'd let you know about the Dorsetts in this community at that time. Charlotte

Margaret Brown, born 1850, GA. Married Robert Cicero Bramlett born 1849, Chattooga County, GA. Looking for Margaret's parents. I need your help. Sherry

Both my g-g-granddad, John Cobb, and his son, John Walter Cobb were listed on the 1900 census for Chattooga County. They were listed as miners and lived in the Seminole District. Does anyone have a clue as to just what mine they may have been working in and if there were any little mining towns in the Seminole District in which they might have lived? Sure would appreciate any info. Cindy up here in Michigan

I am looking for someone who might be able to tell me if Matilda Foster and A J Henderson are buried in Chattoogaville Cem??????? Thanks Shelby

{If someone has a relative that could be in one of these cemeteries, I would be glad to check, just provide a surname and first name, etc.,} Hi Bob, Would you please look to see if my g-g-grandma is listed? *Martha Cobb, spouse of John Cobb Thanks so much. I sure appreciate it. Cindy in Michigan

Shelby, The Brown Valley information would be greatly appreciated. Thank You, Chocy

Shelby, I can tell you for a fact there are at least three seperate BROWN families in Northern Alabama (Marshall, Morgan, Blount, and Cullman Co.) Our William P Brown family have members in all the counties. I will keep a look out for your BROWN. I have had to collect parts of other BROWN families in the area in order to keep our BROWN family straight. Having a BROWN to research is quite interesting because it seems they all like the same first names! Chocy

Chocy , I have some info on Brown's Valley if you want me to forward. Shelby

Chocy, The Brown line is new to me. My husband's Minerva Brown m. James Porter Doss. I am looking for Minerva's daddy. I believe she was born in Marshall Co, AL. I haven't been able to obtain any Brown family census info from Marshall Co yet. I noticed in 1900 index there were numerous families. Minerva had her first child in 1867 and her children were General Buford, James Martin"Mart", Rueben, Mrytle, and Cain. her husband served in the Civil War. Shelby

Shelby, An added note: On the 1850, Trion District, Chattooga Co., GA Federal Census there were several DORSETT families living near our BROWN family. On this 1850 census both William Brown and Thomas Dorsett were enumerated with their families; HOWEVER, on the Guntersville, Marshall Co., AL 1860 Census (where the BROWN and DORSETTS were only one enumerating number apart) they were both missing and Elizabeth BROWN was the head of household for her family and Mary DORSETT was the head of household for her family. Like I said before,James A (oldest BROWN son) and Mary (oldest Mary DORSETT daughter) get married and a few weeks later James goes off to fight for the South in the Civil War. Further, on the land records for Marshall Co., AL in the Mill Creek area are listed THOMAS DORSETT and WILLIAM P BROWN each followed by 1860 (all the other listings on this page showed complete dates). Interestingly, on the 1850, Trion District, Chattooga Co., GA Federal Census everyone is listed except Margaret BROWN who shows up as 10 years old on the 1860 Census and being born in GA. SO Elizabeth must have had Margaret after the 1850 Census was taken and she probably was born in the year 1850. NOW, on the LAND RECORDS of Marshall Co., AL only the year 1860 appears for both Thomas Dorsett and William P Brown; which could mean they both purchased the land before passing away (if that is what happened) or they went somewhere-----------war, or ?---------whatever happened to them they could have been together-------------------Could they both have been killed or left before leaving Chattooga Co., GA and their wives/children bought this property under some plan or other in Marshall Co., AL in 1860 where their names DO NOT appear on the 1860 Census with their families? Did something terrible happen in Trion District, Chattooga Co., GA around that time (1850-1860)? We have not been able to find a burial site for Thomas Dorsett his wife Mary or William P Brown and his wife Elizabeth. Does anything here fit into anything you know? Chocy

Chocy, I have a W T Dorsett living in the community of Foster' Store Chattooga Co, GA 1898-1899. That is from the area directory. Funny thing is my Foster's where living close to your Brown's . Shelby

The closest I can get is Dr Herman Dobbs Brown b. in Cherokee Co, AL in 1885. He is buried in the Summerville Cem. Shelby

Thank you Charlotte-Perhaps that is where the Browns also lived in 1850------Would that be a part of Trion District, Chattooga Co., GA in 1850? Chocy
