Willard BROWN
Mary E. "Polly" RASEY |
UPDATE (8 Sep 2018): We have three DNA matches, each of which in lines that lead to New England. Please see this web page for details. |
Husband: Willard BROWN
Birth: 1806/7, NH Death: aft. 1860 Y-DNA Haplogroup: R1b-FGC16982 Occupation: farmer, cooper Relative (father? brother?): Nathan BROWN Now that it's known the maiden name of Willard's wife is RASEY, not BAKER, people are jumping to the conclusion that BAKER is the maiden name of Willard's mother. Unfortunately, that unsupported guess is now widespread in files on the internet. |
Marriage: 17 Nov 1826 |
Wife: Mary E. "Polly" RASEY
Birth: 21 Oct 1808, NY Death: 12 Dec 1868 Occupation: homemaker Father: Joseph RASEY III Mother: Catherine BRUCE Because our subjects had a son named, "Ira Baker BROWN," someone assumed that Ira's mother's maiden name was "BAKER." It isn't, but unfortunately that error is now widespread in files on the internet. |

1. It is our family history that Ira Baker BROWN's parents were Willard & Mary BROWN. The following is copied from papers handwritten in 1921 by Nellie (BROWN) KIRK, daughter of Ira Baker BROWN — and surely she would know the identity of her grandparents. A typewritten copy was made from Nellie's hand-written original on 25 Sep 1941 by Nellie's daughter, Ida (KIRK) BAIRD. A photcopy of the typewritten page was kindly sent to me by Nellie's GG-granddaughter, Kathleen HONTZ. One of the items on the pages states:

PLEASE NOTE (9 Apr 2018): I'm looking at the online image of this census page many years after I first extracted it.
