I have a marriage record date of 23 Jul 1878, recorded in Milam Co TX for them. The information indicated the female E.B.S. BROWN was previously married. I have found a John A. RUSSEL and wife Emma A? listed in the Bell Co TX, 1880 census. Living with them is a 7 year old Wm. H. BROWN, listed as a step-son (to John A. Russel). No other children are listed as living in the household. Does anyone know anything about the above persons? I think the Emma BROWN may be Emma SPEARS-BROWN, my great grandmother, and the Wm H. BROWN my grandfather. Please, any information would be greatly appreciated.
