| 23535 | Very little has been found regarding Ammi Almanzia Brown and wife Almira Sanders. It is not known for sure when or where they were married or when they moved to Minnesota. Born in Massachusetts in 1829, Ammi was found in the 1840 Census with his parents and brother residing in Burlington, Otsego Co, NY. He was next found in the 1855 State Census of Otsego County, New York, along with his first wife Deborah and their daughter Ida. Five years later, the 1860 Census found him residing in Crawford County, Wisconsin with Deborah, and their two children, Ida and Edwin. (Further evidence of this first marriage is his 1898 application to the Washington Soldiers Home, on which he stated that he had two children, ages 44 and 16.) He was a resident of Palmyra, Jefferson Co, Wisconsin in Aug 1862 when he entered military service for the Civil War. Ammi's and Almira's marriage must have occurred upon Ammi's return from Civil War duties, as they are found together in the 1870 Census in Guilford, Chenango Co, New York. They were next found in the 1885 Census of Wadena Co, Minnesota, with son Addison. Circumstances taking Ammi from Minnesota (possibly by way of California) to the state of Washington in 1893 are unknown. An affidavit by son Addison Avery Brown, dated Aug 21 1935 at Clarksburg WV, regarding establishment of Addison's birthdate, stated that his family had moved from Minnesota to Montesano, Washington, when he was about nine years old, that the family Bible had been destroyed in a house fire about three years later, that his mother had died when he was about six years old, that his father had died when he was about 18 years old, and that he had no living siblings. Ammi remarried twice after Almira's Dec 1887 death, first to a second Deborah S. in 1888 in California. They divorced in 1894 in Seattle or Tacoma. He married again in 1895 in Tacoma to a Rachel A. But she left him within a couple of years, though they apparently never divorced. Addison Avery Brown always gave his parents' names as Ammi Almanzia Brown and Almira Saunders (or Sanders), and official records support that. But Addison's obituary identified his parents as Adli Brown and Rachel Sanders. The basis for that information is not known, other than an apparent confusion of his mother with his stepmother. Ammi's middle name Almanzia has been found in only two documents, son Addison's delayed birth certificate, and Addison's application to the Modern Woodmen of America. Son Addison's birth certificate, which was not registered until 1943 when he was a longtime resident of Doddridge County, WV, identified his father as Ammi Almanzia Brown, age 54 at the time of Addison's 1881 birth, born in Massachusetts, occupation carpenter; and his mother as Almira Saunders Brown, age 39 at time of Addison's birth, born in New York. Information supporting the delayed filing was provided in affidavit by Edith Maria Weeden, 20 Brown Avenue, Norwich, Chenango County, NY, who was identified as Addison's cousin. Addison always told his son Armand that Edith was Addison's only living relative outside the immediate family. Edith was later found to be Almira Sanders' niece, a daughter of her sister Mary Sanders Terwilliger. Civil War Service Records reflect that Ammi A. Brown, a resident of Palmyra, Wisconsin, served as a Private with Co A of the Wisconsin 1st Heavy Artillery Regiment from Aug 1862 to Jun 1865. Applications to the Washington Soldiers Home in 1897, 1898 and 1899 show this to be the same Ammi A. Brown, born Sep 13 1829 in Boston, Massachusetts, carpenter by trade, who was the husband of Almira and the father of Addison. He applied for a Civil War pension on Sep 16 1890, classification "Invalid," which likely corresponds to what is now called "disabled." Census records before 1850 listed only the head of household by name. The following is the household of Ammi Tufts Brown, father of Ammi A. Brown. 1840 Census, Burlington, Otsego Co, New York: Household of Ammi T. Brown 1 male age 40-50 (this would be Ammi T. Brown, who we know from the 1870 Census was born about 1799) 1 male age 10-15 (i.e., Ammi A. Brown, b. 1829) 1 male age 5-10 (i.e., Andrew J. Brown, b. 1834) 1 female age 40-50 (i.e., Annis) NOTE: Daughter Julia is not accounted for. No record of Ammi A. Brown was found in any 1850 Census. However, the following census entry cannot be ignored: 1850 Census, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire (Town of Milford), enumerated on Aug 20 1850: Ai Brown, 22, b. Massachusetts, carpenter; Rosina Brown, 21, b. Mass; Lola (Lela ?) Brown, 1, b. New Hampshire. In the next household: Levi Tuffts, 50, cabinet maker; Mary W. Tuffts, 43; Helen Tuffts, 6. Birthplace for all indicated as New Hampshire, but the use of ditto marks under Lola Brown, above, leaves open the possibility that Massachusetts was intended. It is noteworthy that Ammi A. Brown's father, Ammi Tufts Brown, was named for his uncle, Ammi Tufts, the husband of his mother's sister Lucy (Williams) Tufts. Minnesota Land Records, Document 16156, St. Cloud Land Office, on file at U.S. Bureau of Land Management, show that Ammi A. Brown purchased 80 acres of land on Dec 16 1890, with the following legal description: Aliquot Parts S1/2SE, Base Line 5TH PM, Fractional Section No, Township 134 N, Range 34 W, Section # 4. In "The Famous & Not So Famous," published by the Verndale Historical Society in 1987, it is noted that the relationship between the many Brown families who settled there has not been entirely determined. Of the many pages devoted to settlers of the Brown surname, only the following three entries appear regarding this one: (1) "Architect and Builder. I am prepared to take contracts for erecting buildings of all kinds. Plans and specifications furnished on short notice. Stair building a specialty." [Wadena County Tribune, Dec 5 1878, attributed to A. A. Brown] (2) "A. A. Brown has erected a barn near Verndale." [Verndale Journal, Dec 26 1879] (3) "The A. A. Brown Furniture, 1882, is mentioned in 'Bartlett Township History,' Volume I." It is noted that there were apparently two A. A. Browns, Ammi Almanzia and Albert A., both carpenters and residing in Verndale at that time. Based strictly on the two Censuses and on son Addison's birth certificate, Ammi would have been born either ca 1840, ca 1832 or ca 1827; but entries on his applications to the Washington Soldiers' Home consistently and specifically state his birth date as Sep 13 1829. Ammi Almanzia Brown was thought by family lore to have died at age 74 of apoplexy, although son Addison, born in 1881, recalled that he was about 18 at the time of his father's death, which would have been shortly after Ammi's last admission to the Washington Soldiers' Home in Orting, Pierce Co, WA in 1899. Discovery of his grave at the Washington Soldiers Home Cemetery in Orting shows that Ammi Brown's death occurred on Jun 20 1899, also reflected in Pierce County death records. | BROWN, Ammi Almanzia (I3621)

But his age in the 1930 Census was 9, putting birth in about 1921, and he did not appear by name with his family in the 1920 Census, enumerated on Jan 21 1920. It is possible, however, that the Anthoney, age 2 months in the 1920 Census, was actually him, that his family afterwards renamed him Garmen, and then five years later had another son who they named Anthony, as indicated in the 1930 Census. | SWIGER, Garmen (I84055)

| 23547 | Virginia Bee's birthdate, January 1 1863, was the same day that President Lincoln announced passage of the legislation establishing the State of West Virginia. Tradition has it that when Ephraim Bee learned of this historic event, he promptly renamed his daughter West Virginia Bee. In the 1870 Census she was indeed listed as West Va Bee, and she was identified in her daughter Mary Pauline (Zinn) Duskey's death record as West Virginia Bee. However she was identified in the 1880 Census and in her marriage and death records as Virginia Bee. Census records of her adult years indicate that she was more commonly known as Jennie. http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~wvdoddri/who/bee.htm 1900 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (Central District), enumerated on Jun 16 1900: Mary Zinn, 76, b.

Sep 1885 in WVa; grand-dau Mary P. Zinn, 9, b. Mar 1891 in Pennsylvania; grandson Benjamin F. Zinn, 5, b. Oct 1894 in Pennsylvania.

It is noteworthy that Mary is listed as having eight children, as Bee researchers consistently report that she had only the seven listed here.) 1910 Census, Ritchie Co, WV (Clay District), enumerated on Apr 23 1910: Jennie Zinn, 45, b.
