Biography

Family records including the family bible that Pascal R. Brown owned. Federal census records and family lore. Pascal has three grandchildren or great grandchildren that bare the middle name Reese. We can assume they acquired their middle named from their grand or great grandfather Pascal. In addition, we have DNA matches with a Rhoda Reese Brown family of Bedford, Virginia. We can assume that ‘Reese’ and not the earlier spelling of Reis is Pascals correct middle name and spelling. Furthermore , the name Reis is of Germanic origins and Pascal was not of Germanic origins. No documents in my research has shown the spelling of Reis or Reese for Pascal. It only shows the letter ‘R’. More research is needed.

Family records show Pascal passing away on March of 1897. A recent deed from Todd County, Kentucky signed by Pascal R and his wife Charolette H Brown in April of 1896. In this deed he is giving a large tract of land to his youngest son James Edmond Brown. Pascal would have been 79 in 1896 when this deed was signed.
