Birth*19 January 1882Harry C. Brown was born on 19 January 1882 in Martins Ferry, Belmont County, Ohio.1,2 
Name VariationHis full name was Harry Crampton Brown.1 
Marriage*28 April 1904He married first Rachel Burtwell, daughter of George H. Burtwell and Mary Ann Reedy, on 28 April 1904 in Lexington, Dawson County, Nebraska.1 
Census US 1920*6 January 1920Rachel and Harry C. Brown were enumerated on the 1920 census taken on 6 January 1920 at 156 Ridge Street, Council Bluffs, Pottawattamie County, Iowa. Harry was 37 years of age and worked for wages as a Meat Cutter in a Basket Store, and Rachel was 34 years of age. Their seven children were enumerated with them in 1920. Ralph A., Paul G. and Merle J. were ages 13, 11 and 10 years, respectively, were able to read and write, and had attended school within the census year; Lloyd O. was 6 years old and had attended school within the census year; James H. was 5 years old; and the couple's two young daughters, Doris A. and Martha W., were ages 3 and 2 years, respectively.5 
Census State IA 1925*1 January 1925Rachel and Harry Brown were enumerated on the 1925 Iowa State census taken on 1 January 1925 in Council Bluffs, Pottawattamie County, Iowa. Harry was 43 years of age and Rachel was age 40. Harry's parents were recorded as John Brown, age 80 and born in Virginia, and Albertina Elliott age 75 and born in Ohio, and they had been married in Ohio. Rachel's parents were recorded as George Burtwell, died at age 43, and born in Tennessee, and Mary Reeder, age 77, born in Indiana, and they had been married in Kansas. Harry and Rachel were recorded as married, had each completed their education through the 9th grade of high school, and rented their home for $17.00 per month. Their eight children were enumerated with them in 1925. Ralph, Paul and Merle were ages 18, 17 and 16 years, respectively, and had each completed his education through the 8th grade of grammar school; Lloyd was 12 years old, had completed his education through the 6th grade of grammar school, and had attended school for nine months of the census year; Jimme was 10 years old, had completed his education through the 5th grade of grammar school, and had attended school for nine months of the census year; Doris was 9 years old, had completed her education through the 3rd year of grammar school, and had attended school for nine months of the census year; Wilma was 7 years old and had completed her education through the 2nd grade of grammar school; and Lucille was 4 years old. Everyone in the family, except young Wilma and Lucille, was able to read and write.6 
Divorce*Harry and Rachel (Burtwell) Brown separated, and were likely divorced, although the timing of the break-up of their marriage is not clear to us. On the 1925 Iowa State census of Council Bluffs, they were enumerated together, with their eight children, and recorded as married. It's possible, however, that only Rachel responded to the questions of the census taker, and that Harry had already moved away and started a new family. On the 1930 census of Council Bluffs, Iowa, Rachel was enumerated as a "widow" and the head of her household, with the couple's six unmarried children. Harry, that year, on the 1930 census of St. Louis, Missouri, was enumerated with his second wife, Clara Luvina (Helton) Brown, and four children between the ages of 2 and 7 years. All of the children were recorded with the surname BROWN, and the three older children had been born in New Mexico. No evidence has yet been found to place Harry in New Mexico, and Clara was recorded on the 1930 census as having married for the first time at age 31, or ten years earlier. So, we've concluded from the information we have, that all four of the children were Clara's, and that at least the youngest, Roy, was also Harry's child. If Harry and Rachel separated and divorced shortly after they were enumerated with their first seven children on the 1920 census, and around the birth of their last child who was born about 1921, all of Clara's four children may have also been Harry's.

We feel confident that "someone out there" knows the truth and can put the confusion in our minds to rest with the answers. We will greatly appreciate the help. If that someone is you, or someone you know, please contact us with the information.6,7,8 
Marriage*He married second Clara L. Helton, daughter of Joseph Engle Helton and Zuritha Elizabeth Parker.9,2 
Census US 1930*2 April 1930Clara and Harry C. Brown were enumerated on the 1930 census taken on 2 April 1930 at 2914 Arsenal Street, St. Louis, Missouri. Harry was 48 years of age, had been age 23 when he married for the first time, and was employed for wages as a Meat Cutter in a Butcher Shop. Clara was 41 years of age and had been age 31 when she married for the first time. They rented their house for $27.50 per month, and four children were enumerated with them in 1930, all with the surname BROWN. Charles and Clara had been born in New Mexico, were ages 7 and 5 years, respectively, and had attended school within the census year; Rosemary had also been born in New Mexico and was 3 years old; Roy, who was born in Missouri, was 2 years old. While we suspect that Roy was the son of both Harry and Clara (Helton) Brown, the biological parentage of the New Mexico children, Charles, Clara and Rosemary, has not yet been determined.8 
(Husband) Death26 January 1960Harry became a widower when Clara Luvina (Helton) Brown died on 26 January 1960 at age 70.9 
Death*31 July 1961He died on 31 July 1961 in Brookfield, Linn County, Missouri, at age 792 
Burial* and was buried with his second wife in Parklawn Memory Gardens Cemetery, Brookfield.2,9

ChartsDescendants of Nicholas Boulton, The Immigrant
Descendants of John Bolton and Zilpah Peirce
Birth*James Ormond Brown was probably born in Maine.1

Marriage*12 June 1823He married, as her first husband, Elizabeth E. Bolton of Milton, daughter of John Bolton and Zilpah Peirce, on Thursday, 12 June 1823 at First Parish Church, Milton, Norfolk County, Massachusetts. They were married by the Reverend Samuel Gile.3,4 
Death21 September 1829A young man named James Brown, identified as a mate of a vessel and the son of Captain James Brown, died at sea "the captain of the vessel is indicted for murder because, according to the testimony of the crew, this young man was kicked and otherwise abused while in a dying state. He was buried on 21 September 1829.5 
Census US 1830*1830James O. Brown appeared on the 1830 census as the Head of Household in Wrentham, Norfolk County, Massachusetts.

Brown and Eleanor (Kenyon) Brown, in Mount Hope, McLean County, Illinois. George and Eleanor had four young sons living with them in the household. Cassius was 7, Harold 5, Frank 4, and Lucien 2. Also living with the family and helping with the farm labor was Clarence Shove, George's 22-year-old half-brother.

Lucinda Brown1

b. 16 November 1840, d. 28 June 1914
Birth*16 November 1840Lucinda Brown was born on 16 November 1840 in Virginia.1 
Marriage*She married William Harrison Eudy.1,2 
Relationship Note*On the census of 1900 a child named "Mattie" was identified as a granddaughter of Lucinda and William Harrison Eudy. That Mattie was born in April of 1900 in Kentucky and was one month old. Then, on the 1910 census, a child named "Mattie", who was born about 1895 in Kentucky, was enumerated as a daughter of Lucinda and William Harrison Eudy. We believe that she also was actually a granddaughter as Lucinda would have been 55 years of age at her birth and the couple already had a daughter named "Mattie". (As a side note, their grandson George, who was also enumerated with them in 1910, was identified incorrectly as their son.)

So... here's our dilemma. We are not sure if these two "Mattie" granddaughters, Mattie D. Eudy and Mattie Eudy, are separate people or if they are the same person with their ages recorded incorrectly. Additionally, we are unable to identify the parents of either "Mattie". We're hoping someone out there in the internet world will provide the answer for us...3,4 
Census US 1900*20 June 1900Lucinda and William Eudy were enumerated on the 1900 census taken on 20 June 1900 in Glasgow, Barren County, Kentucky. William was 63 years of age and worked as a farm hand, and Lucinda was 59 years of age. They rented their house, had been married for 41 years, and Lucinda had given birth to 11 children, all of whom were living. Three of their daughters, a son-in-law, and two grandchildren were enumerated with them in 1900. A married daughter, Mattie E. Jeffries, was there with her husband, Ross Jeffries, who was 23 years of age and worked as a farm hand. His wife Mattie was 17 years old. Two of William and Lucinda's other daughters, Mary E. and Anna A., were single and ages 23 and 21, respectively; and their grandson, George Eudy, who was 6 years old, was also enumerated with the couple in 1900. George's father and stepmother, Nannie and William Riley Eudy, were enumerated that year with George's two siblings, Annie and Thomas, ages 9 and 8 years, respectively, in Robards, Henderson County, Kentucky. A mystery granddaughter, Mattie D. Eudy, was also enumerated with William and Lucinda in 1900. Mattie had been born in April 1900 in Kentucky, was one month old, and we have not been able to identify her parents.3 
Census US 1910*27 May 1910Lucinda and William Eudy were enumerated on the 1910 census taken on 27 May 1910 in Hiseville, Barren County, Kentucky. William was 73 years of age and a general farmer with employees, and Lucinda was 69 years of age. They owned their farm free of mortgage, had been married for 50 years, the first marriage for each, and Lucinda had given birth to eleven children, ten of whom were living. A daughter and two grandchildren were enumerated with them in 1910. Their daughter Anna, who was enumerated as Fannie, was single and recorded as 29 years of age, although she was likely about age 33; granddaughter, Mattie, who was recorded as a daughter, was 15 years old and had attended school within the census year; and grandson, George Eudy, who was recorded as a son, was 13 years old and had also attended school with the census year.4 
Death*28 June 1914She died on 28 June 1914 in Summer Shade, Metcalfe County, Kentucky, at age 731 
Burial* and was buried in Baldock Cemetery, Summer Shade.1

James and Louisa had four young children living with them in the household. Son, Ormond, was 9, and daughters Alice, Lucy and Amy were 6, 4 and 2, respectively. The previous family enumerated on the census was the household of George W. Brown, James's younger brother, whose household included another brother, Clarence Shove. The next family enumerated on the census was that of Obediah Arnold and his wife, Rosina (or Rosanna) Kenyon, likely a close relation of George Brown's wife, Eleanor Kenyon. It is believed all of these families knew each other in the east, likely Rhode Island or Massachusetts, before migrating to Illinois. Members of the extended Kenyon family also lived on nearby farms.1
