Good morning BJ, I'm sorry, but there aren't any members of the PARTON or PARDON families mentioned in the "Hickman County, Tennessee, Deed Book B." This book is for the years of 1811 through 1813, so your clan could have moved into the area later than the time period of this book. There are, however, some members of the BROWN family found in this book. They are: BROWN, Claburn BROWN, Claybourn (I think these first two names are the same person.) BROWN, George BROWN, Jonathan BROWN, William. If any of these people are of interest to you, please let me know and I'll provide you with what is said about them. Please give me the names one at a time, though, if you need the info about more than one of these people. No members of the HOWARD family are found in this book, either. Is there anyone else I can look for in this book for you? Thanks for being part of the ROOTWALKER family. "Stars And Stripes Forever!"
