Now I see William who came from Ireland oldest son might be Vincent. They tried to move a family & the Indian's killed them but the son. He escaped & got shot at. He went to Kentucky then to Brown, Ohio. I dont think he went to Indiana.

I found that Vincent went to Ohio in 1801 Age 15 from Kentucky. Vincent was in 1840 in Pike, Brown, Ohio. Theres was James. Both of them are on the same page. Vincent is listed 1830.

The oldest James Brown I found in 1850 Pike, Brown, Ohio Age 55 born abt 1795.
Vincent C. Brown wouldve be age 64 in 1850.

I found info about another Vincent on rootsweb.com & familysearch.org I guess this one is in a differnt family.Vincent Brown was born around 1755 Northumberland, Virginia & died South Carolina He married to Sarah Corbell in Virginia.

Here's some links I found

-----------------------------

Vincent and Martha were the first people united in marriage in the Twp. He was an early settler in Brown Co., coming there in 1801 from Kentucky. Vincent & his wife was buried Hendrickson Cemetery, New Hope. Scott Twp., Brown, Ohio.

Vincent and Martha son James M. Brown who married to Margaret Armstrong moved to Schuyler, Illinois. Also thier daughter Rhoda Rose Brown who married to Aaron Leonard moved right next to James. At first James & Margaret went to Kentucky. They came back to Ohio then went to Illinois. They rest of thier children stayed in Brown, Ohio.

My line to the Brown's

1.) Vincent C. Brown & Martha Ann Allen

2.) Rhoda Rose Brown & Aaron Leonard

3.) Martha B. Leonard & Aaron L. Thomas

4.) Mary Jane Thomas & Benjamin Franklin Kniffen

5.) Aaron Eliphalet (Lafe) Kniffen & Permelia Ann Penrod

So, Aaron Kniffen/Niffen was my great great grandpa.
