I am researching my George Brown Family in Kentucky. I got off on a tangent researching George Parke Brown, son of William Brown and Hannah Street from the Virginia line. I found some interesting stuff about him. I Googled him and came up with some biographies. It seems that he was a very prominent lawyer in Talladega, Ala. He married a Margaret Chilton, the daughter of his legal associate William Parrish Chilton. After George's death, Margaret Chilton Brown remarried to an unknown Barkley. He owned a lot of property which he left solely to his wife Margaret. They had a daughter Margaret who married a William F. Perry. Perry joined the Confederate Army and was discharged with the rank of Brigadier General.

George and Margaret had other children, Ellen, George Park JR, and Thomas C.

I have compiled this information into a Word doc which I will send to you if you want it. This proves that George Parke Brown was not “my” George Brown whose parents migrated to KY with the Maryland Catholics. He married Juliet Ann Lush in 1836 as proven by their marriage bond and license in my possession. George and Juliet subsequently moved to LaRue, Hart and Grayson Counties in Kentucky. They disappear from the census records after 1880 in Hart County.
