I am having trtrouble with 1881. Any joy Margaret?

MargaretM

MargaretM Report 20 Jan 2010 13:04

Nope!
It would be nice if we could find him with parents but then unlikely because he'd be 22. Also being a coachman he could be travelling.

have you checked for his baptism yet.?

LadyKira

LadyKira Report 20 Jan 2010 13:31

I cannot see a birth. If we can narrow that down you could get his birth cert

I couldn't find a baptism either and there are just too many Thomas Brown births to narrow down. Brown is just too common!

Hi
It seam that my family got it wrong and my grgrgrandfather was not William Brown but Richard Brown. I have just got the marriage cerftifield for Thomas Henry Brown and Elizabeth West ,Thomas father is listed as Richard Brown not William Brown. Once thing i have learn is do not believe what family tell you. So now i am trying to find Richard Brown the father of Thomas Henry Brown born about 1859.

Thanks Sandy

Sandra Report 27 Jan 2010 16:16

Sandra
I would not usually advise a new thread butsince so much of this thread is irelevant to you now I think you should start a new one.


In your opening post start with all the information on the certificate including witnesses . Give any name dates and places that you know as opposed to may have been told.

Thank you everyone
