Thanks for responding Ticker. I have not learned anything new, the information I have comes from a book "Ulster Scots and Blandford Scouts" - and talks of William Brown coming to the States (probably Boston) around 1725 (possibly earlier, possibly a little later) and settling in Blandford, Mass. His family lived in an area of devout Presbyterian Irish Scots. The referenced book states that William worked in a linen factory in Cholerane or Londonderry before coming to the states. Thanks!
