It would be great if a living male Brown who is out of the Hezekiah Brown, Senior (married Anne Stubblefield and Sarah Long) who was in Culpeper Co., VA, then in KY and then in Indiana would take the Y chromosome DNA test via the Brown Genealogy Society DNA testing project (which uses Family Tree DNA).Hezekiah Brown, Senior back in Culpeper Co., VA was closely associated there with a man who was named Garfield Brown....and Garfield Brown was a known member of DNA "Group 47."We do not know, however, if Hezekiah Brown, Senior (supposedly a son of James Brown and Elizabeth Poole) was also a member of that same Brown family (but the referenced Y DNA test should answer that question).
By the way, it now strongly appears that the other Hezekiah Brown family that was in Bedford Co., VA and then in Bedford Co., TN and then in Arkansas was part of DNA "Group 6."That Hezekiah Brown (born about 1777) was apparently the known son of the Joseph Brown who left his Will in Bedford Co., VA in 1795, as I recall.
