London & Middlesex Lookup Requests / Re: Born at Sea Reg'd in Middlesex - brickwall

Hi
Richard Robinson Pryor - b1820-22 (ish) was my third great grandfather.  I have also been having problems locating his birth, and not been able to come up with anything.  Looks like you are further on than me as I thought his first marriage was to Sarah Shepard.  But read you say it was Lawrence.  Hope this is a coincidence, but Richards daughter - Sarah Ann Robinson Pryor, is my great great grandmother and she married Joseph Lawrence, my great grandfather who was a bit of a 'cad' by all accounts. 
I can't fathom out the 'Calcutta'.  Somewhere I have got the information that he was born on high seas sailing between Calcutta and Indonesia.  But still don't know more than that.  I think if this is true, his father must have something to do with British East Trading Company (think that is what is was called).  But still can't come up with anything. Did Richard have siblings? 

Would love to hear from anyone interested in Richard Robinson Pryor or Pryor's  and Lawrence's of Sheffield

thanks
Sharon

Ayrshire / Browns - Irvine- coal miners
« on: Sunday 14 August 11 22:52 BST (UK)  »
Hi
Wondered if anyone has Brown's in family tree.  Mathew Brown b1863 Halfway, Dundonald, Irvine. 
Mathew comes from a long line of coal miners,  His father Anthony Brown b1830, Portpatrick.  Going further back, it's to Ireland.  I always thought my paternal family were Scotish through and through, I've only gone back three generations to find tthey have come from Ireland. 
By 1891 Mathew and many of his brothers have moved to work as coal miners in Blantyre. 
Any information on this Brown family would be welcome. 
Also if anyone has information on the coal mining community of this time.
thanks

Hi

I have been looking into my family history for long time.  Not managed to get far with fathers mothers side of family.  I think looking at the posts you have made, I may be linked somewhere.  But must admit to getting a bit confused to some of the information.  My x2 gt grandmother was Annie Walls b.1843 Dumfries.  Her parents were John Wells and Elizabeth Kirkpatrick.  looks like this John and Elizabeth fit into the information you have given I think.  Annie and Walls married John Saunders had 9 children.  If anyone can help or would like to get in touch please do, I have not managed to come across anyone researching same family tree as myself yet.
