Which makes you and me third cousins....
You can see details of this family on my website. I suspect the name change is not really a change at all but is the interpretation of Essex dialect by the vicar. All the BROYDs in Finchingfield appear as BROADs in church records for a few decades.
I've not been able to track Edward and Susan's parents, but I suspect Edward was illegitimate because when he married a second time, after 1837 when father's names appeared in marriage records, no father's name was given.

Hi Nomee
Are you doing a One Name Study on the entire family name or are you just after information on these particular individuals? :)
If the latter is the case I will gladly move the post for you to a more relevant board which may help to generate a response for you. Please let me have any information on possible locations (County etc.) so I can place it in the right board.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes
