FAMILY NOTES
HUSBAND NOTES: William Henry BROWN
General: I have never been able to find Wm. H. or his
parents in the 1880 Texas
census, leading me to believe his father may have died and
his mother remarried,
or, both parents died and he was raised by a different
family. The following census
info may be a possibility?

31 Oct 2002, reply email from MB, she has found a marriage
record for me.
John A. RUSSELL and E.B.S. BROWN 23 Jul 1878 in Milam Co,
TX.
A note adds that the wife had been previously married.
COULD THIS BE EMMA
SPEARS-BROWN and my William Henry? His death
certificate indicated his parents
were both born in TX - is the above birth state info
for Emma in error or could
the family have "forgotten" where she was born?
WorldConnect has the above census John A. Russell
as the son of Barney Russell,
grandson of Alexander Russell (Burnet Co TX Russells)
WorldConnect file indicates
the wife of John A. Russell was Emma Lee Speirs

Found him and family in 1920 COMAL Co TX census. I had
been looking in NM for
him as I remembered Dad saying that his family left TX for
NM when he was 2 mo.
old. I must have misunderstood, he must have meant 2
years old.

can't find her and husband Jess anywhere if they are married
by this early in
the year. Mary K. has died in 1928.

Certified copy of William and Lola's marriage certificate.
Married Comal Co,
TX 27 Sep 1906 (thanks to WQ lookup info)
AZ Archives cannot locate an obituary for William Henry
Brown.
AZ Death Cert. photocopy from AZ Archives
Gives date of birth and place only as Texas. Actual location
of death is Gila
Co. Hospital, Globe, Gila Co.; person giving info is Lola B.
Brown, wife. Trade
is listed as carpenter. Cause of death "Paralysis of
larynx and muscles of
"deglutition"?, onset July 1938. Names of
parents listed as George Brown and
Emma Spears. Place of birth for each listed as TX.
His death certificate gives his birth date as 6 Jan 1875.
I think he may have
been born in 1873: a) His age in the 1910 and 1920
census indicates an earlier
birth than 1875 b) He and Lola were married in
Sep 1906 and the 1930 census
states he was married at age 33. Those three items
indicate a birth year
earlier than 1875.
I never saw William Henry, but my mother, Helen
Campbell-Brown said he was well
over 6 ft. in height, perhaps 6' 4-5".
