I am looking for a James Brown who was living in FT Morgan Co at the time of his sisters death in 1926. His sister was Nellie Brown Cale. He was born 1870/1871 near Montrose, Iowa. James parents were John and Eliza Bullard Brown.

These censuses may be of help to you.

Thank you for your reply. I think this is the right family. I am glad to know who he married. With a name like Brown you have to be careful who you pursue. This is a great help to us.

BROWN, James T. b. 1870 d. 20 Jan 1933 Sect K Lot 33 Plot purchased by Mrs Carry [sic] BROWN

BROWN, Carrie R. b. 1870 d. 12 Feb 1941 Sect K Lot 33 Plot purchased by Mrs Carry [sic] BROWN

Headstones are side by side.

I checked on all of the other BROWN given names listed and found nothing else, however, a brother-in-law is mentioned in your query: Charlie Bronson. There is a Bronson and the age difference is only four years - census age info is often incorrect.

BRONSON, Charles E. b. 1868 d. 2 Jun 41 Sect O Block 1 Lot 26 Plot purchased by Mrs. Lawrence ERNST.

Thank you so much. I always like to know where they were buried. It is like closure or something to know what happened to people. I do appreciate you taking the time to let me know.
