Debbie, Do you know the name of John Henry's mother or stepmother? Is
there any relationship between your JH and the John Henry Brown who fought
in the Civil War, was from IN, and left a widow named Catharine A. Brown?
Searching is difficult when one is dealing with such popular names. Good
luck, Nancy Cooper

Subject: [INGIBSON] John Henry Brown
John Henry Brown was born December 11, 1869(65) in Princeton, Gibson
County, Indiana. His family moved to Indiana when he was a young age. His
mother died, his father remarried. Then his father died around 1881 when he
was 12 years of age. As there was family dissension he left home at this
time. His step-mother at that time gave him his father's civil war cap. No
one knows his father's name. John Henry Brown's whereabouts for the next 26
years are unknown. In 1895 he shows up in Lamar County, Tx at the home of
Alonzo Edmonds and meets and marries Delilah Ann Stanford. I know this is
limited information but this is all I have. This is my brick wall. Anyone
have any ideas or know of this family. Thanks in advance for any info.
Debbie
