His daughter Annie married my relative George MItchell who succeeded him as squire). There is a surname search feature. I didn't look up the Browns, but there were numerous references found to Parhams. I also have a copy of a series of articles from the Gallatin newspaper in 1979 about Cottontown. Several references are made to Alexander Parham and his son George. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
