Surnames: BROWN, SLUSHER, BEASON Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/ok.2ADE/1923.3.1 Message Board Post: Just an FYI on R. Jane SLUSHER BROWN, who is included in Walter's last list of B deaths... R. Jane SLUSHER was married to James BROWN (8/11/1844-1918). He was the son of Leonard Doss BROWN and Sophire BEASON. According to the History of Fremont County, Iowa 1881 - Franklin Township p. 631: "BROWN, JAMES, farmer, P.O. Hamburg; born in Warren County, Indiana, August 11, 1844. In 1947 came to this county. In 1864 he was married to Miss R.J. Slusher, a native of this county, and the daughter of an old settler. They have four children; Charles, George, Leonard D., and an infant. In 1861, Mr. Brown enlisted in company C, Fifth Missouri cavalry, serving two years, when he was mustered out." I have the children listed as: Charley Boy (b. 1868), Leonard D. (b. 1872), Georgia (b. 1874), Joseph (b. 1876), and Fred (b. 1878). Another child of L.D. and Sophire BROWN, Nancy Jane BROWN, was also married to a SLUSHER, but I believe the two Slusher families in question were cousins. Keep them coming, Walter! I really appreciate your hard work!!! Does anyone know more about this Gordon Farm listed in Jane Brown's death info? Many of my Browns are buried in Hamburg Cemetery.
