Jan, Thank you so much for responding to my plea for help. I have the Brownlow genealogy and the Brownlows migrated from North Ireland to Craven Co., NC aboard the "Earl of Donegal" 1767. James Brownlow was b: 1765 in Ireland and married in NC (don't know what county) to a Mary (Polly) ? ca 1790. He is on the 1800 Chatham Co., NC census and moved 1808-09 to Logan Co., Ky (1810 Census), Giles Co, TN (1820, 1830 and 1850 Census). At least 1 of James brothers had property in Cumberland Co., NC. I am wondering if Mary could be a Nevill. Several families of Faires, Orr's, Alexander's, Grigsby's and Brownlow's migrated from NC to TN then on to MO all intermarried. There was a Jane Brownlow that married a Ward then Patterson that is related. Just giving this in case someone has anything on a Brownlow/Ward. I have more history if anyone is interested. Thanks again, Remona
