5. Jacob Braune --so far nothing on him..

6. Frederick Andreas August "Fritz" Braune was born: 1850 in Leipzig, Germany and died: 12/21/1925 in Williamson County, Texas. He married Augusta Fuchs.  It was mentioned that this Fritz had a brother, Wilhelm.. maybe the one listed above?

* indicates information given to me from various Braune members also researching Braune's names .. mostly from *Mary Jane Neuse.. ( Andreas, Frederich Wilhelm,Christian Henoch, Christian Heinrich,sr and Chritian Heinrich, Jr line).. Guess it is safe to say, Mary Jane has been busy and found out what we needed on this line...just need more children listed on each generation beyond Christian Heinrich Braune, Sr.

Thank you for your time and help to my queries and you have my permission to list these on your websites.. so others can see them..
