Go to the Browning site
http://browning.evcpl.lib.in.us/ and you can see several family
members obits. There is a local history database that may have some newspaper clippings
about the family. To do much real genealogy--history farther back--about your family you
really need to be able to go back before 1900. You can find out a lot of information from
the census records but most of the census records on the internet cost money. Your local
library may have a business subscription to one of the services. You might also look for
family trees someone has posted on your family, but that will be more names and dates
rather than family information, and may be wrong.
