Are These Your Ancestors?

The Brown County Historical Commission is in the process of documenting pioneer families from Brown County.  The Historical Commission plans to eventually print a book about pioneer families.  One needs to document that his ancestor was in Brown County before 1910.  An applicant needs to document his ancestral lineage by using birth certificates, death certificates, marriage licenses, wills and other means of genealogy.  He would also need to document his ancestors arrival in the county by census records, land records, or other means.  A $15 fee is required along with the application and supporting material.  The fee will be used to defray costs for the program.  Anyone interested in the program should contact Jerry Spain, Brown County Historical Commission Vice Chairman at 915/646-2934

In 1935, the Brown County Pioneers Association listed a number of people as members, all of whom had come here prior to 1876.  The club used to meet once a year for an annual picnic.  Several pictures of these club meetings are at the Brown County Museum of History.  The Brown County Historical Commission would like to find descendants of these early pioneers as well as other pioneer families in Brown County.  The rolls of the 1935 Club List included the following names along with the date of their arrival in Brown County:
