additional information

To give more information. He ended up in Mississippi in the early 1830's buying land. In the 1840 he started and built a plantation in Biloxi right on the gulf coast. It is called Beauvior. It is the home of the Jefferson Davis Library and is a memorial to the Confederate president.

The parents of James Brown 1805-1866

James Brown
I am the great great granddaughter of James Brown who was born in  Kentucky in 1805 and lived in Mississippi for an extended time but died in Virginia in 1866.  I am trying to verify who is parents are.  He was married to Sophronia Perdue (his second wife) who gave birth to his 13 children.  In some records he is listed as James H. Brown and his eldest son (my great grandfather) was James Henry Brown.  If you have any information on James Brown I would love to get it.
