I have the 1860 cecsus index for AL and Francis M Dunn is listed as being on page 843 of the Northern Division of Chambers Co. Other Dunns in the county are Thomas H. Dunn
on page 832, Susan on page 833 and Susan on page 839.
I suggest you look those up and see if there was a Dunn male
of an age to be Francis's younger brother in any of those families. Then I would check marriage records for the county for marriages about 1872 (based on Mattie's age.) Then IU would check Chambers Co. Orphans's Court records for the possibility
that Francis was named guardian of his brother's children.
Good luck,
