MORGAN A. BROWN Family History and Genealogy |
The following are links to websites specific to research, genealogy and history of the Morgan A. Brown family. I am also including the best recommended free and easy genealogy websites for overall genealogy research. There are some pay websites, but I am not providing that information here. In many cases those can be found accessible from your local area library.
An extensive history of the Brown family of Maryland was written down by Dr. Morgan Brown (1758-1840), the Revolutionary War veteran from South Carolina who settled Montgomery County, Tennessee. He wrote the family history of the Brown family in his family bible long before he passed away in 1840 at the age of 82. Clearly a lot of personal knowledge is recorded in this history.
The original history of the Brown family of Maryland as written by Morgan Brown IV and published in "Sketches and Anecdotes of the Family of Brown and Some Others with Whom They Are Connected, or From Whom They Are Descended." American Historical Magazine. Vol VII, No. 2. Apr 1901: 148, 227-243. Now available on Google Books. Be sure to scroll up to page 146 for more genealogies on the Stewart and Little families that Morgan Brown IV also claims descent from and provides a wealth of history.
A nice website of history and descendants of Morgan Brown IV (1758-1840), the Revolutionary War Soldier from South Carolina who later settled in Tennessee.
This is a very interesting 'reminiscence' attributed to Morgan Brown IV, brother to Joseph Brown and uncle of our Morgan A. Brown, in which he gives a vivid account of his early life and some of his experiences during the Revolution. Especially the first battle of Charleston in the summer of 1776. This account was printed in the October 1859 issue of Russell's Magazine recently posted by Google Books. Click here and scroll to page 59 to read the reminiscences completely.
