Explaination of Tree System
Study this page. It clarifies (1) the Tree system used, (2) the seeming division between Christian workers in the 19th Century and 20th Century, (3) states main object for writing this history in its present form, (4) why each family does not have a larger write up and tree.
Ninteenth Century Christian workers included.
1. John Brown (Reverend) and wife, born in 1804. Disciple of Christ.
2. John H. Brown (Rev.) and wife, born in 1833. Disciple of Christ.
3. William Harvey Brown (rev.) and wife, born 1855. Disciple of Christ. Theologically, they lean strongly to calvanism. (Once a Christian, always a Christian.) Three things are absolutely necessary to become a Christian. a. make a public confession. b. Baptism by immersion. c. Fellowshipped into the Christian Church (name put on the Church rolls.)
The above three ministers are all in a straight line. Buthere Rev. william H. Brown's oldest son died when a lad. God reached over to the youngest brother of W. H. Brown to another John - John Dempsey Brown, also a son of John H. Brown, and called his oldest son, Oral Carl Brown, who is the same identical relation or blood line as Walter Brown would have been. Oral C. Brown at 12 joined the Christian Church, but at 21 1/2 was Born Again at the methodist Altar and became a Methodist. So the 20th Century Browns are methodists of the Armenian faith. This is all told in 15 chapters, "How It All Happened". Study them. This shows why the seeming division. rev Oral carl Brown is the fourth in a line. his son (Rev.) david Brown is the sixth minister in a line and will likely span more than 200 years.
The writer is blind and unable to follow in detail only those who are Full Time Christian Workers, namely all ministers and their wives (in green), all teachers and their wives (in red).
Please preserve and continue this History.
