Hello Sylvia, The Brown I have is Malinda Brown, b. July 7, 1857 in Upper Towamensing Twp.. She is married to Thomas McDaniel, b. July 4, 1850 in Upper Towamensing, son of Robert McDaniel b. abt. 1820 and died July 26, 1893, and Elizabeth Greenzweig b. abt. 1822 in Carbon, died Dec. 23, 1894 in Upper Towamensing. I don't know who Malinda's parents were yet, and I am not positive that Robert McDaniel is of the Mahoning Twp. Carbon McDaniels but it seems probable that he is. I have lodged him under James McDaniel's family, (James b. 1793 m. Lydia Klotz) for further research. James has several sons showing in Carbon Census records from 1820 to 1850, he died in 1854. Out of 3 or 4 sons only J. T. McDaniel is a proved child. I do know that in J. T.'s 1906 obituary only two sisters are shown as surviving, which is confusing because another known daughter of James survived until 1913, though one listed in the obit is a repetition of the same female's name as another in the obit, and one brother Charles is also listed, this male shows in the 1850 census with James and wife. Malinda is given as a daughter of Simon Brown, b. 1814 in PA, and Catherine Greenzweig, b. 1823 in Carbon then Northampton County. Simon's father is given as Adam Brown, and mother Maria Magdalena Weitzel in Dale Berger's genealogy at Ancestry. Simon Brown's family shows as: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a.. ID: I620 a.. Name: Simon BROWN a.. Given Name: Simon a.. Surname: Brown a..

Albert James BROWN b: 26 SEP 1862 in Lower Towamensing Twp.,Carbon Co.,PA So far it is the coincidences which make me think that Robert McDaniel b. 1820 is of the Mahoning McDaniels's but it is not certain that he is James' son. There are two missing male children of Robert McDaniel b. 1756 in Maine, James is the 3rd. out of 3 stated children in Robert 1756's burial record where he is stated to have 9 children living at the time of his death in 1847, and his wife Elizabeth's (b. 1767), obituary states she had 9 children, 3 sons and 6 daughters, the sons being James, a Robert on whom I have found no further info stated to have gone west in the Carbon History, and an un-named son. Still searching for further info on those without much luck. If you have any information on Malinda's parents or if you agree with Dale Berger's ancestry for her, please let me know your thoughts on this. These McDaniels are a tough bunch to figure out!.....Judy ----- Original Message ----- From: <KRoth57013@aol.com> To: <pacarbon@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, July 30, 2007 6:36 PM Subject: Re: [PACARBON] McDaniel and allied families of Carbon County,Luzerne Co, Mon... > Judy, > > Just wondering what you have on the Browns?
