    Notes for Luther Brownfield:
    I am interested in information concerning one of the Brownfield lines out of Fayette Co in Pa. There were two brothers a Charles and a Robert who married two sisters I think Mary and Ann Bowell. One line is that of the Basil Brownfield people, the other line includes mine. I am interested in connecting with any relatives that descend
    form Zadoc Brownfield M Ann Price and Luther Brownfield (served in the Civil War, brother to my great grandfather) These people are buried behind the Post Office in Smithfield, PA and I believe are connected to the "Brownfield Hollow" ones. My grandfather was Lee Byron Brownfield, an attorney in Uniontown (d. Circa 1926 and
    brother to Owen Brownfield also an attorney from Fairchance.) There are a lot of Fayette Brownfields out there, but I have yet to come in contact with any who are are related to the Zadoc Brownfield line. Can any one help? - Christine Brownfield
