Title: Brown . New York 覧 Foxborough, Massachusetts
Post by: Erik Bloodaxe on Wednesday 06 January 21 18:32 GMT (UK)
Hello!
Dear friends, I am trying to find relations or descendants of Cuthbert James Brown. He was born on 31st May 1887 in Wellington, Somerset, England. He arrived in New York on 4th April 1914 on the Mauretania from Liverpool.
On the 4th October 1915 he married Florence Alice Coles in Queens, New York.
In 1925 he lived at 54 Chestnut Avenue, Pelham, Westchester, New York.
Between 1930 and 1935 they moved to Foxborough, Massachusetts .

They had 2 children, Nancy Elizabeth Brown 14.11.1916 Mount Vernon, New York.
and Dorothy E. Brown.

The reason for my search is to find descendants of a particular person from 1812.

Any help or advice greatly received.

Erik.
