According to the information I have George and Ella were married in Lafayette, 22 Jan
1856.
I am trying to determine when George arrived in Tippecanoe County and from where, whether
they really were married in Lafayette, as well as when they left and where they were
headed.
I have located Ella in the 1850 Census residing with her family in Wabash Twp family 174.
I have also located A George Brown, not necessarily THE George, residing in Selby Twp
family 45. He is shown with a wife and three children. The age is about right, but the
birth place, PA, is not, my George Gibson Brown was born in Shipton, Quebec. If this is
my George Gibson Brown, then this is a family for which I have no information.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I'm planning on being in Lafayette in
early June to do some research so recommendations on local resources would be most
helpful.
Thank you.
Mel Brown
