The information I have is as follows: Benjamin Davidson Brown – Benjamin was born on 01-Aug-1778 in Hanover County, Virginia. He married Mary “Polly” Powe (Poe) on 21-Mar-1800 in Garrard County, Kentucky. Benjamin moved to Ripley County, Indiana in the fall of 1816. He died on 06-Jan-1860 in Ripley County, Indiana and was buried in New Marion Cemetery, Ripley County, Indiana. Benjamin and Mary had 8 children: 1. Elizabeth – She was born on 21-May-1801 in Garrard County, Kentucky. Elizabeth married Peter Young on 24-May-1821 in Shelby Township, Ripley County, Indiana. Elizabeth died in 1873 in Indiana. 2. Nancy Jane – She was born on 12-Dec-1802 in Garrard County, Kentucky. Nancy married Isaac Harrell. 3. Finley – He was born on 02-July-1805 in Garrard County, Kentucky. Finley married Peggy Delay (b. 1812). 4. Elijah – He was born on 15-Dec-1807 in Garrard County, Kentucky. Elijah married Sarah Delay (b. 1812; d. 1899) on 13-Jan-1829 in Shelby Township, Ripley County, Indiana. 5. Clarissa – She was born in 1808 in Kentucky. Clarissa married Henry Waddle on 03-May-1832 in Shelby Township, Ripley County, Indiana. She died before 1860. 6. William Bartlett – He was born in 1810 in Garrard County, Kentucky. William married Elizabeth Waddle (b. 1810 in New Jersey or Kentucky) on 05-June-1833 in Shelby Township, Ripley County, Indiana. He died on 12-Sept-1855 in Shelby Township, Ripley County, Indiana. 7. Mary “Polly” M. – She was born on 04-June-1812 in Garrard County, Kentucky. Mary married John Rhea in 1832. 8. Eliza Ann – She was born on 11-Oct-1815 in Garrard County, Indiana. Eliza married Elijiah S. Mason on 31-Oct-1839 in Shelby Township, Ripley County, Indiana. I have also seen that Benjamin's father might have also been named Benjamin and was from Albemarle Co, VA. I do not know how accurate that information is. I appreciate any information anyone can give me on this family . Thanks!
