I am wondering if this is Mathew Brown b. 1807 in OH m. to Mary Brazelton in Vermilion Co, IL in 1831. Mathew was the son of James Brown and Elizabeth. In the 1850 Vermilion Co, IL census there is a Susanna Henthorn living with Mathew's parents James and Elizabeth Brown. Mathew and Mary Brown lived in Vermilion Co, IL before moving to Travis Co, TX where they can be found in the 1850 census.
