Looking For Doctron Brown
I am doing a geneology search on the Brown family of North Carolina and I am stuck at Doctron Brown of Bertie County. He was born in 1808 (or 1810:looking at census records, he either goofed on his birthday one time or someone transcribed his age incorrectly during one of the census years). His name shows up in the census on different occasions as Doctron, Doctrine and Docton. Has anyone else been researching the Brown family in NC? We also have Browns that seem to like to flip back and forth from Bertie to Vance and or Granville Counties. Any help is greatly appreciated.
"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.
