    Notes 
    • I have not totally proved that the Levi Brown b. in Lunenberg, was thesame Levi as the on in Charlestown, NH. However, it is highly probablysince the Levi in Lunenberg was the son of Aaron and Abigail and theymoved to Charlestown from Lunenberg.

      There were two Aaron Browns in Leominster/Lunenberg both having childrenaround the same time which causes a lot of confusion, especially sincethe Leominster first church records only give the father's name onbirths. Following are listing from the Leominster First Church:

      Sept. 28, 1747 Aaron Brown and Rachel his wife joined church
      Oct. 3, 1747 Aaron Brown on Leominster married Rachel Reed of Harvard

      baptisms:

      Oct. 1747 Sarah, dau. of Aaron Brown
      Jan 14, 1750 Prudence, dau. of Aaron Brown, Junr.
      Mar 25, 1750 Ephriam, son of Aaron Brown
      Mar 29, 1752 Aaron, son of Aaron Brown
      Sept 24, 1752 Levi, son of Aaron Brown, Junr.
      Oct 27, 1754 Silas and Elizabeth (twins), children of Aaron Brown
      June 11, 1758 Molly, dau of Aaron and Rachel Brown

      Following are from Leominster, MA VR

      Aug. 13, 1747 Sarah, dau of Aaron and Rachel Brown
      Jan 11, 1749-50 Prudence, dau of Aaron and Abigail Brown
      Jan 14, 1749-50 Ephriam, son of Aaron and Rachel Brown

      One of the Aaron's was referred to as Aaron, Jr. both in church and townrecords, even though neither appears to be the son of an Aaron. Ibelieve the Jr. was simply a way of keeping them seperate and indicateswhich was younger. Notice that in the church records, Aaron has a sonAaron in 1752, so he wasn't the father of Aaron, Jr.. Aaron Brown, Jr.must have been the Aaron who married Abigail since both the church andtown records list a birth for Prudence. Likewise, the entries for Sarahshow that Aaron (Sr.) was Rachel Reed's husband. Aaron Jr. also hasbirths show in Lunenberg and Charlestown, NH.

      Jan 31, 1744-45 Aaron, son of Aaron and Abigail Brown
      Feb 17, 1746-47 David, son of Aaron and Abigail Brown
      Dec 13, 1754 Jonathan, son of Aaron and Abigail Brown (he d. July 17,1759)
      Feb. 2, 1757 Hepsibah, dau of Aaron and Abigail Brown
      Oct. 1, 1759 Jonathan, son of Aaron and Abigail Brown

      Charlestown, NH VR

      May 16, 1762 Elijah, son of Aaron and Abigail Brown

      The probate records for the Estate of Aaron Brown of Charlestown (Feb 18,1770?) mention s. Aaron Jr., and include David Brown as a creditor.According to Charlestown town records, they were warned out ofCharlestown on Mar 27, 1760 after having arrived in Feb. 4, 1760. Howeverthey apparently stayed for a while. Later probate shows Jonas Cutler ofGroton, MA trying to get money fron Aaron and Aaron Jr. of Charlestown(May 16, 1769 docket #15226). In docket #28508, Simon Sartwell ofCharlestown got a judgement against Capt. Aaron Brown of Westmoreland, NHon June 11, 1771 after he left town owing money. That was probably AaronBrown Jr. who left after Aaron Sr. passed away.
