Hello list. I am looking for any information about Brown families in Fauquier around 1800. Specifically, the family of Roda Brown. Marriage records indicate that Roda Brown (married Jesse Gray 23 March 1818 in Fauquier County) is the daughter of Thaddeus Brown and Frances Thaddeus. Does anyone know more about any of these folks? Has any connection ever been made between the Browns of early Fauquier and the Brown families in Westmoreland County around 1650--1700? Browns, Grays and Popes all settled along Machodoc Creek in Westmoreland County around 1650. Thanks.
