Photo of Tillinghast Brownell.
Born 1826 died 1914.
Tillinghast is the namesake for my Father.

Tillinghast Brownell
The naming tradition in the John Hansen history
has been that the second name is after the mother father.
John Albert ( Albert Lemke)
John James ( James Dempster)
John Thomas ( Thomas Smith)
Obviously my Mom and Dad got confused with Tillinghast being my G-G-GF (and not GF.)
This photo was given to me by Bill Perrin. I'm not sure he knew it was my fathers namesake; but I sure appreciated receiving it!!
