Notes - McKeown Family Bible record, written on back of page for family portraits From Dale Thompson.
There is a listing of births, it states that John G. McKeown 2nd son of Alexander and Rose Glasgow McKeown was married to Annie Parker daughter of John and Margaret Brown Parker Feb 27th 1849.
[3] - From the Parker Book by Wayne Parker, page 72: Margaret McBride was the daughter of John McBride and Dorothea (Dollie) Brown. ... The following remarks made by John Brown Parker (1818-1904) and William Parker (1821-1905) "The McBrides were rather below medium size, while the Browns were large and robust and stood in the front in all manly sports requiring strength and agility." Dolly Brown McBride had one brother John Brown who settled in Guernsey County, Ohio about 1828, had three sons, William Brown, Robert Brown and John Brown. William settled in Philadelphia, Robert in Des Moines County, Iowa and John remained on the Guernsey County farm. David Martin and Mary McBride Martin, emigrated to America about 1841 and went to Zanesville, Ohio (John Parker and Margaret McBride Parker living there at that time). They left after a few months and went to Troy, New York. All trace of family has been lost.
