Len or Levi BROWN ca l8l4 from SC with his occupation as rafting and then farmer and his spouse as Barbianna ca. l8l6 SC and Barbara Anna. They had eight children as to census. There was a Mary A. ca. l843, Louisa J. b.l844 and died in l924 and married to Joseph L. ROY in l865, Carolina ca l848, James J. ca l850, Sarah F. ca l852, Burrell or Berket ca l853, Franklin and Edwin or Edmund who were twins ca l854. In another census, the names are the same, but the last name is JOHNSON. In l870 Elmore census Louisa and Caroline aren't in the family. Evidently Louisa J is my ancestor who married a ROY and whose child, Frances Rebecca ROY married George Washington SPEAR. Thanks for any help

I am looking for any information concerning Peterson Gideon (P.G.) BROGDON who lived in Tallapoosa and Elmore Counties. He was born in N.C. abt 1805 and died in Elmore Co., Alabama between 1874 and 1880. His second wife is buried in Tallassee in the cemetery there along with the children by the 2nd marriage. His first marriage is the one that I come down from. Her name was Talitha D. (TURNER) BROGDON. She died abt 1855 and I believe it was in Tallapoosa Co., Alabama, as Peterson married his 2nd wife Frances (Dorris) LYONS there in Tallapoosa. Where Talitha is buried is not known. I have not been able to locate a grave for Peterson or his son Peterson Gideon BROGDON, Jr. who died in 1873 at the age of 3. I am also looking for information on the KIMBROUGH family. Shadrack KIMBROUGH, Jr. was my 4th great grandfather. His son James Pinkney KIMBROUGH married the daughter of Peterson Gideon BROGDON whose name was Mary Ann BROGDON. They removed to Texas and I have all the information on them down to me. However, there is still a lot of information on the Shadrack KIMBROUGH family that I do not have. Shadrack KIMBROUGH married Mary Ann LACKEY in Henry Co., Georgia. She is buried in Tallapoosa Co., AL also. I have information that the LACKEY family also moved to Tallapoosa, Elmore area. Any help you can give me on these three families, would be greatly appreciated. All I can say is help! As the records are few and far between.

My grandmother used to tell me that she had been born in 1888 in Chillicothe, Alabama. No one in my family has been able to locate any reference to a Chillicothe in Alabama.

Any direction will be appreciated. Please reply to RScott@Bracepatt.com. Thank you. Ronald Scott, Houston, Texas
