**Purported Ascents, and my opinion as to whether they are false or suspicious:
 +
**#Mark Ogle who had a grant of arms in 1535, but flawed by attaching Henry Ogle b 1600 as a a son of Luke known to have died in 1582
 +
**#William Purefoy + Katherine Wigston, but through the probably specious connection of some "Francis Purefoy" purported to be their son and had issue
 +
**#William Ruthven, 1st Earl of Gowrie + Dorothea Stewart, but by assigning some "Alexander" Ruthven, fictitiously as their son
 +
**#Ambrose Sutton+Sarah Warner and Nathaniel Tilden+Lydia Huckstep.  This ascent is going to depend on proving this http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Trail/1262/Sutton-Nat.html
 +
**#David Crawford and his wife Jane of New Kent County, Virginia, but ignoring the flaw that Jane's maiden name is not known, and that David's grandfather as the Malcolm Crawford who d 1592 has been disproved.

==Lester B Brown==
 +
Lester B Brown was born 1902/3 in Oklahoma.  Some trees in the Ancestry World Tree project claim that he was born on Sep 1902 and was the son of George Washington Brown and his wife Cynthia Martin.  I'm not happy so far with those sources that do not cite any underlying source.  The main thing that bugs me is that in the 1930 census Lester B Brown's birthstates are given as "OK/MN/NE".  This is a very odd response as you can see.  The parents ascribed to him however were both born AR which is a rather normal response for an Okie.  I would really like to see some better sources on his purported parents.
 +
 +
He married Una Valerie Coker about 1921/2, probably in Oklahoma. Their eldest child [[#Elizabeth Jean Brown|Elizabeth Jean "Bettie" Brown]] was born about 1922/3.  In 1930 the family was living in Bethany, Oklahoma County, [[Oklahoma]] where he was a freight agent for the railroad.
 +
 +
Lester Brown and Una Coker divorced, probably in Oklahoma.
