BROWN

In the 1830 Williamson Co. Tn. census there is an Amy Brown living in the household of Nathaniel Warren. She is listed as 75 years old, blind and an pauper. In April 1830 there was a court order for Nathaniel to take care of Amy. I wonder what connection she has to the Nathaniel Warren family. In the census she is listed as a male over 75. Would appreciate any help.
