Brown Family History

Sponsored by the Brown Family Club

They will live ...
as long as we remember.

Welcome to the Brown Family History section of our Brown Family Club website, devoted to the history of all different Brown families in America. Most of these families are descendants of pioneers who settled in the American Colonies before they gained independence.

This is a common name so obviously not all Browns are related. However, we are united in a desire to preserve our heritage. This is the main purpose of the Family Club -- to gather and preserve copies of public documents on our family of every kind as well as personal family information. We are trying to create a major collection of such records and information that can become a storehouse of knowledge about our ancestors.

Book

Our first book on Brown family history is now available. It is a brief history on the Brown men who served in the state militias, Continental service and naval service during the American Revolutionary War for Independence. It contains more information than we can post on our website, including when and where born; more about their military service; who, when and where married; children (and info on them); occupation; information from pension records for the veteran, widows or survivors; when and where died and buried, etc. You can order a copy of the book by sending a check payable to the Brown Family Club to the address below. Cost: $25
