Based on an entry at familysearch.org, this couple was married in 1806. The question is "where?" A history of Pickaway County, Ohio suggests that Sarah, the daughter of William Brown had been born in Huntingdon County, Pa. and that the family had come to Pickaway County in late 1806(that being William and family, Samuel his son and family and several sons-in-law). I assume they married earlier in Huntingdon County, Pa, but it could have happened somewhere in between. That previously mentioned Pickaway County history says that most of William's children moved to Hancock County sooner or later. One of the exceptions is " Mrs. B. Brown who moved to the coal fields". I've found deeds in Pickaway County that refer to Brian and Sara Brown referring to land in the same area that Brian Brown is found near in 1820 census(near William Brown his father in law and several brothers-in law). By 1830, Brian is in southwestern Hocking County in Eagle Twp and moved over the years between there and neighboring Jackson Twp(both townships would eventually become part of Vinton County). That region certainly is in or near coal fields. If the couple were indeed married in 1806, I'm hoping to find where. There are no records in Pickaway County, Ohio(not a county until 1810) or Fairfield County to the east. I haven't yet had a chance to check Franklin County to the north[from which the Brown's part of Pickaway County was formed(Walnut Twp)]. I wonder, too, are any records in existence in Huntingdon County, Pa. that might show a marriage there or records to show Brian/Bryant's lineage? Any help in locating records in Franklin County, Ohio or Huntingdon County, Pa. or anyone familiar with Bryant Brown's lineage is appreciated!
