Bernadine, You have really given us something to chew on. On Page 27 of the LCT 1820 census we have Ephraim King from SC. He along with the Harkins were supposed to have come with the Armstrong's. James & John Armstrong on this page were Thomas Armstrong sons. And Joseph Brown on page 27 might be Mary "Mollie" Brown Armstrong (wife of Thomas) brother. McClintic Brown was Mary's cousin. I cannot fine Thomas Armstrong on the 1800 SC census but there is a Thomas (the right age & children) on the Cumberland NC census. If they all came together then where did they all meet up? Anyone have any idea. Bernadine, do you know anymore about the Wright-Suggs marriage? My Wrights were from SC but also stopped along the way in NC (but where)? Solomon Wright was in LCT by 1820.

Julia, In my data base I have a Joseph Patrick Brown, born July 22, 1770. His wife was Mary Ann Stephens, born December 28, 1771. They were married about 1794 in Norway, SC, at the Willow Swamp Baptist Church. Their children (that I have listed) are Winnifred Ann Brown, born June 6, 1795, and Joseph Martin Brown, born 1796 Winnifred Ann Brown married January 28, 1818, Thomas C Young, Jr. and they had eleven children. They died in Neshoba Co., MS, and are buried at a Winston Co., MS cemetery. Do these names fit in with the ones you have?

Dortha, I have many Joseph Browns in my date base but do not have the one below unless he is one of my stragglers. I would be happy to send you my Brown file to you personally. Let me know. jmolitz@cox.net Some of my Brown's came to middle TN by way of flotilla. Some killed by Indians and other captured and held for ransom. This line settled in the Cumberland Community and then when on to Giles, TN. as well as other places that I do not have info on. These were kin of my 3 great grandmother Mary "Mollie" Brown Armstrong. But I have not found any information that she and Thomas Armstrong came that way. They were suppose to be in the bunch with the Kings, Harkins, Deals and etc. Mary Stevenson Hulsey has a Brown line that may be part of yours. Her email address is maryhul@ao.com I have not been in contact with her for some time so hope the address is current. If your Brown's came to Middle, TN at some time then they may all be related.

Julia, The Suggs-Wright marriage is: Harbard Suggs born 1755 Anson Co., N.C. d: 1812-14 Montgomery Co. married Zelphia Wright daughter of William Wright & Elizabeth Furr. Don't know how or if this fits into your Wright family. I believe their son Wiley is the one who might have migrated to Owen Co., Ind. along with the Bolin family & some others. There was a Wiley Suggs who was mentioned with Benager Randle's estate. He probably married a Randle daughter. When I was at the State Archives in N.C. I copied what land records I could find from Montgomery Co. Among them is this one which shows some Wrights were neighbors of my Bolins. This is probably the Father of Zelphia. Oct. 23, 1789, No. 596 John Boling Junr., 50 acres beginning at Ben (?) Dewals Talors corner tree and bounded by Talors line running North crossing sd river thence West to Wm. Wrights line thence South for complement. I have tried to look into these families because they seemed to follow my Bolins in different directions - one took off for Ga., one for Owen County, Ind. & one for Lincoln Co. Tn., Marion Co., Ala. & Mo. Actually it was more than one in each direction. All seem to carry the same names in their families & they're all a mess. Another researcher I've corresponded with was also following the Brown family. Some of these family branches were just over the county line into Bedford Co. There's a mixture of families from S.C. & Montgomery Co., N.C. They may have met up in Ga. On the other hand, my Willoughby was born in S.C. but lived in Montgomery Co., N.C. He may have gone back to S.C. Bernadine Julia Molitz wrote: >Bernadine, > >You have really given us something to chew on. On Page 27 of the LCT 1820 >census we have Ephraim King from SC.
