Hi all, I'm posting this query in response to a non-subscriber. We are looking for the parents of Brainerd Miller Washburn, born in New York state about the 1820's. He shows up in Dodge county, Wisconsin in the 1850's with my gg grandfather James A. Washburn and James' brother Lyman Gardner Washburn. We know Brainerd is not a brother of James and Lyman Gardner, however given that he was born in New York as James and Lyman were, pioneered with these two brothers in Wisconsin and his death certificate says his parents were born in Massachussetts as James and Lyman's were born in Brookfield, MA, we think he may be a cousin. Brainerd and his wife had two children, Gardner R. and Florence J. born in Dodge County, Wisconsin in the 1850's. I realize that there were lots of Washburn's born in Massachussetts that moved on to upstate New york, but maybe someone has something on this elusive individual. Brainerd Miller Washburn also occasionally went by Miller Brainerd. I'd appreciate any help you can give me. Marc Chambers Virginia Beach, VA
