Subject: [EKYORIGINS] Larkin Brown and dau. Serena
Date: Fri, 12 Nov 1999 11:44:21 -0600


Greetings from a new member living in Missouri...

I'm Jane(Wallen)Moroni...my mother's maiden name was Lavender
and both sides of my family are steeped enough in E.Ky. to keep me
thrashing round there for a long time to come. My primary Brown
interest is .I think, going to turn out to be around Larkin Brown(him
I find in my Mitchell Hall "Jenny Wiley Country vol 3,pg 230-31.)
;apparent son of one George Brown of Asheville,NC. Larkin
marr/Elizabeth Lewis (d/o James Lewis of NC.);they had a dau. Serena
Brown/1st Sandy Vaughn/2nd Wm. Friend. this Serena is curious to me
because in old pictures from my Grandfather Edward Paul"Toby"
Lavender comes a woman in front of a major corn field (very "flat"
landscape) with the name Serena Friend
on the back. I'm speculating Mr. Friend moved out to corn country
after marrying Serena in Ky. ;or perhaps some other of the Larkin
family moved north or west and she married Mr. Friend while IN corn
country.

Hope this isn't too disjointed.....I need HHEEEEPPPP !!!!
