Surnames: Brown & Reaman Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/kFB.2ACE/4406 Message Board Post: My great grandparents were William Avery Brown and Lydia Louisa Reaman. They had at least two children, Matie R. and Eugene L. Matie was born in 1876 so William and Lydia probably were born in the 1850s. Lydia was born in Jackson, MI. If you have any information, I would appreciated it very much. Karl MacEachron Fresno, CA
