Ruth,
Charles Brown is my son. I think you will remember our exchange of info. I had an old
e-mail address of yours and have been unable to send messages. I am descendant of James
Keen's son, Daniel Keen, (a brother of Huffman Keen). You gave me a pic of Huffman
and wife a couple of years back. Lets keep in touch now. I have been unable to get any
research done for over a year. Lost a brother, a sister, a sister in law and a brother in
law in a 7 month period.
I think I have found Thomas James Keen, born about 1828 or 9 in Pike Co. OH, (who is the
son of James Keen's (1784) brother, Huffman Keen) living in Elk Co. Kansas in the late
1800s according to census records. Have contacted a descendant but haven;t given details
yet. Hope to be able to find out more about the family. Pretty sure James and
Huffman's father is a Thomas Keen who disappeared from the Cape May County, NJ tax
records in the late 1780s. Possibly a Rev War soldier.
