*Completed* ---Elizabeth Brown
I am adding info to BCC from someones tree who sadly passed away and checking as I go of course.
But ahead of the marriage look up for this Elizabeth Brown it is bugging me
I think this must be her married name
so wondered if we can suss it out
also the Grandson of Elizabeth marries a Mary Ellen Brown I wondered if it loops back in so a double link?
http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =100120489
I think on one census she had a George Brown living with them
can we find some census for this couple Elizabeth Brown (b 1821) and hubby John Jay( b 1825)
I think it is her second marriage

Re: Elizabeth Brown
If she had a grand daughter in 1881, them she could have been married before, or had a least a child out of wedlock.

Re: Elizabeth Brown
nice work Lin....
so this father George Brown
wonder when he was born?
The Browns I have to connect to for this lot are
Elizabeths Grandson marries a Mary Ellen Brown b 1896
her father is a John Alfred Brown b abt 1872
his father is a John Brown maybe a grocer...dob unknown
and that is all I have
but I bet Edwin and father George link somehow

Re: Elizabeth Brown
Hi NL, have altered 1861 Census after checking the image, the Brown children are all Step. James Jay is Son. So that all pans out. Will have a look round for George Brown and Mary Ellen.
1841 Crowley Place Kingswinford
Edwin Brown 20 Shingler Yes
Elizabeth 20 Yes
Edwin 1 Yes
Later from Linell.

Re: Elizabeth Brown
So Edwin has father George and mother Mary
Edwin is b abt 1818
So chasing back this John Alfred Brown b abt 1872 with father a John Brown maybe a Grocer (maybe b abt 1830)
John Brown father might be a cousin for Edwin?
or John Brown the grocer might be another son for George and Mary

Still with this John Alfred Brown
I am trying to find his parents
I have a note that his father is a John and his mother is an Anne
but nothing else
can anyone see this John Alfred on earlier census before marriage in 1896
