Hi Paula - Thanks for the information. Unfortunately for me, I have checked all the sites you suggested, along with some other possibilities. It's like I have certain information to distinguish my Huston Brown from most others, but not enough (yet) to pinpoint him exactly because I don't have anything "concrete" (so to speak) to say WHERE my Huston was born or the month or the day -- just the YEAR, his enlistment dates and place into and out of the Civil War. I also have WHO he married, when and where, their offsprings names, dates,etc.... It does make sense though that one list member suggested that "Nativity" suggests WHERE the enlistee is born. I did go to a google site that "grampz" (also from this list) suggested and clearly see that the word "Nativity" applies to many different places but seems to be in the same context. There are other relatives (WADDLE family) with lineage in Pulaski County, KY (Huston's wife's mother's side). Is there someone in the Pulaski County area that could do a bit of digging to see if there is something more concrete in records for a birth of HUSTON BROWN b. 1832? Your help would be REALLY REALLY REALLY appreciated.
