Notes for RICHARD THOMAS BROWN:
In 1913, R. T. took his family from Simpson County to Fitler in Issaquena Co. There he earned a living as a blacksmith and a carpenter. As the older children had married and had families of their own, the Brown family now consisted of R. T. and Dicy and children, Sudie, Myrt, Vernie, F. M., R. J., and L. E.

The children were told they could farm the land and keep all the money they made!
R. J. Brown 01/25/2001

R. T. came to Simpson Co. for Dicy's funeral. He stayed with Mack and Vennie and returned by wagon to the Delta to gather his belongings. He was planning to come back to Simpson County to live. While at Fitler in Issaquena Co., MS, he developed pneumonia and died several days later. His body was returned to Simpson Co. and he was buried next to Dicy in Merit Cemetery.

I am searching for information and burial location on a Felix Brown. I do not know his first wife's name, but he had two children with her. A son named Hitson and a daughter Beulah. I was told that they lived around Ellisville, MS. Beulah's married name was Quick. Felix was married the second time to Amanda Harvey. They had two children, a son Leffe and a daughter Tinny Mae. Tinny was born in 1884. Leffe and Tinny lived around the Magee, MS area.
