    3. From POWG Vol.3 Pg 30-31 (I am quoting it in total) Brown, Henry 1804-1864 Clinch Co. Henry Brown was born in Bulloch Co., April 10, 1804, a son of Britton Brown and wife Rebecca Thornton Brown. He married in 1826 to Elizabeth Davis, a sister of William L. Davis (Vol. 1) She was born in Bulloch Co. August 7, 1806. To Mr. and Mrs. Brown were born: 1. James b 1828, m. Sarah M Hughes, d/o Wm. 2. Elizabeth b. 1833, never married 3. William b. 1835 m. Mary Tatum, d/o Geo. J. 4. Jincy (Jane) b. 1838, m. Perry Douglas, Sept. 25, 1870 5. Ann b. 1840, m. Geo. W. O'Quinn, Sept. 22, 1865 6. Tobitha b. 1842, never married 7. Fairiby b. 1844, m. Elias Thompson 8. Henry b. 1846, died of small-pox in 1864 9. John b. 1849, died of small-pox in 1864 This family removed to Clinch Co. in 1852, and settled in the present DuPont district where the parents died. Mr. Brown and his two sons named above, Henry and John, died of small-pox during an epidemic of the dread disease which raged in this section of Southern Georgia the last year of the Civil War. Mrs. Brown died in 1878. They were buried at Prospect Church. Mr. and Mrs. Brown and their dau., Elizabeth, were received by letter Feb. 9, 1863, into Prospect Primitive Baptist Church, Clinch County, and died members there. Census references: 1840, 1850, Bulloch; 1860, Clinch I will continue to look for Brown's with any ref to Cobb, so far nothing. -----Original Message----- From: CannadyGal1@aol.com [mailto:CannadyGal1@aol.com] Sent: Friday, April 15, 2005 3:04 PM To: GAEMANUE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [GAEMANUE-L] Brown/Cobb Need help finding the Henry Brown married to one of the daughters of Curtis and Matilda Cobb. In the 1859 documents re the will of Curtis Cobb it named the sons in law... Henry Brown (+ ?) Jeremiah Grimes (+ Jemima Cobb) Nathaniel E. Cowart (+ Matilda Cobb) We know that a Henry Brown was married to Sarah Nancy Wiggins. In the 1850 Emanuel County Census, this Henry Brown married to a Sarah BUT he is living right next door to Jeremiah Grimes and Jemima.
