Some Brazoria Families with Documented African connections

prepared by Barbara Taylor, March 1, 1996, from records compiled by Ken Brown.

Questions or Comments?
Please let us know!

Census records for the following Brazoria families reveal the following connections with African ancestral homelands. Census records for some of these families, and some others, are available for viewing at the Brazoria Community Library. When families have given their permission, links are provided from these names to information on this web site (no living people are included on this web site without permission). If you are a descendant of one of these families and would like to have the information compiled on your family name posted on this web site, please contact Carol McDavid.
