Euphema BROWN in 1774 Chowan County, North Carolina md John READY and had a son Frederick READY.

I am seeking the parents and family of Euphemia BROWN who married John READY in Chowan Co., NC in 1774. Euphemia Brown READY died before 25 Apr 1779 because at that time John READY married Rachel JONES in Chowan Co., NC. John READY and Euphemia BROWN had at least one child named Frederick READY.

I found little on the Browns who lived in Chowan Co., NC. But I did find a THOMAS BROWN and Christian MAUL who along with sons Edward BROWN and James BROWN were living in Chowan Co., NC.

In volume 3 of "Historical Southern Families" by oldtime genealogist John Boddie, he tells of the Browns of Duplin NC. He has Jacob Brown Jr marrying Sarah Bryant, but does not know that this was a name from her first marriage. Boddie writes:
"In 1741, John Brown, ancestor of the Duplin family, was granted 640 acres in Onslow [county]. In 1747, as John Brown of New Hanover, he sold his last holdings in this grant to Jacob Humphrey of Onslow. John Brown acquired land in eastern Duplin prior to 1754, for in that year he made a deed of gift to his son, John Brown. John Brown Sr was born circa 1707 and was living in Duplin in 1756. From deeds it has been ascertained that his sons were John Jr, Thomas , Jacob, and Stephen. He possibly had other children."
Jacob Brown was born circa 1735 and died 1812 in Duplin. Follows a list of children by his first wife, name not given--includes the Jacob Jr who married Sarah Bryant. He married second Abigail Smith in June 1808 and had by her sons Daniel and Henry.
Earlier, Boddie had written: "It appears from circumstantial evidence that John Brown of Duplin was a son of Christian (Maule) and Thomas Brown of Chowan and Bertie Counties NC....on Sept 16, 1719, William Maule of Chowan deeded for Christian Brown, widow , and in her behalf to her two sons, John and Edward, 320 acres in Chowan on the south side of Potacasse Swamp, formerly surveyed for her husband Thomas and one Robert Patterson. Edward Brown, on March 6, 1738, deeded to his brother John Brown of Bertie his right to the upper half."

Any help with finding the family of Euphemia BROWN would be appreciated
