Reynda,
This note is a little old from you, but perhaps you are still out there.
I have some Brown's in my line from the Madison County area, however, I haven't been able to break thru too much on the info. Although I didn't recognize anyone on my first run thru your list, the James Elmer Brown about sent me off my chair. I've been searching for info on one by that name, from that area, however, mine lived until at least 1971. Too strange.
Anyway, I have a William E. Brown, born March 1854 in Arkansas, married Mary Florence Todd, who was born in Madison County for sure. Their kids were from there also, including:
Essie May Brown
Joseph A. Brown
Lydia H. Brown
Dora H. Brown
Laura Frances Brown
John E. Brown
James Elmer Brown
Nettie Mae Brown
Jasper Brown
Any of this sound familiar to you?
Jo Brown
