Jo White Linn in her 16 years of publication of _Rowan County Register_ abstracted in one issue a year from the loose estate papers for Rowan County through 1850. In those 16 years, she got from "A" through CUTHRELL. Volume 9, No. 2, May 1994, pp. 1989-2018 is entirely on the surname BROWN, covering 70 different estates, and goes beyond 1850. These also include comments from Betty Dan Gilliam Spencer. Mention is made that several files were co-mingled, and some files have been separated into two parts.
