This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: BROWN, SHELTON, Lawson Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/VgB.2ACE/419.1.1 Message Board Post: Louise, approximately what year was your Sara or Sarah BROWN born? I have one born about 1830 in the area of Fentress Co., TN that became Pickett Co., TN, later moving with her parents to Clinton Co., KY. Clinton County borders present day Pickett Co., TN. "My" Sarah was the daughter of Elizabeth (SHELTON) and Michael BROWN. It is believed that Elizabeth (SHELTON) BROWN, Sarah's mother, had some Indian blood. I don't really know much about this Sarah. She may have married a LAWSON, but that is unproved. I don't have names of children. Let's compare what you and I have on our Sarah BROWNS and see if we have a possible match.
