    3. The following is a list of BROWN's who supposedly served in the Rev. War and were from Amherst Co. Does anyone know any more about these BROWN's? Are they related? Andrew BROWN, John BROWN, Sr., John BROWN, Jr., Morris BROWN, and William BROWN. I have an Andrew BROWN b. c. 1760, VA, d. 1803, North Garden, Albemarle Co., VA, m. c. 1780, Albemarle Co., VA, Mary FORTUNE b. 1762 Albemarle Co., VA, d. Aft. 1850 in North Garden, VA or Nelson Co., VA. She was the daughter of John and Lucy FORTUNE of Albemarle Co., VA. My Andrew BROWN of North Garden served as a private in the Virginia Continential Line during the Rev. War. I do not know which county he came from or his father's name. However, since he named his oldest son John, and Morris and William are names found for his grandsons, I am wondering if his father was John BROWN, Sr. of Amherst. Andrew and Mary BROWN had the following children: i. Sarh "Sally" BROWN, b. 1781, Virginia; d. 1872, Virginia; m. Absolom JOHNSON, February 01, 1802, Albemarle County, Virginia; b. 1780; d. 1868, Virginia. ii. Elizabeth BROWN, m. Joel YANCEY, December 12, 1823, Albemarle County, Virginia. iii. John BROWN, m. Martha WOOD (WIDOW OF John P. WATSON), 1816. iv. James BROWN. v. Anderson BROWN, b. 1785, Virginia; d. 1859, Albemarle County, Virginia; m. Sussanna WOODSON, June 03, 1808, Albemarle County, Virginia; b. 1788, Virginia. vi. Lucy BROWN, b. 1786, Virginia; m. Rolph THOMAS, December 03, 1833, Albemarle County, Virginia; b. 1780, Virginia. vii. Nancy BROWN. viii. Mary BROWN, b. 1793, Virginia; m. Martin MOORE; b. 1775, Virginia. ix.
