!Charlie Brashear (SDSU):Marsham Brashear, the younger (Marr. Reg. Bullitt Co,
KY), whose ancestry has not been determined, but is possibly s/o Benjamin
Brashear, a hypothetical s/o Otho Brashear and Ruth Brown.

In 1850, Cordelia Brashear, 65, was in the HH of William M. Mason, 41, and
his wife, Emeline, 39, of Daviess County (HH #50). Also in the household,
James Anderson, 9. Cordelia's relationship to the Masons, if any, has not
been established.
Marsham and Cordelia Brashear apparently had no children. The division
of Cordelia's estate does not mention anyone who could be a child. Instead,
her estate goes to her siblings or their heirs.
