Flintshire / Cross tree farm and Corbins farm, Ewloe (anything on these)

Hi William Brown 1814-1875
Married Priscilla Powell 1827-1907
The 1871 census shows them at what looks like Corbins farm by Cross Tree farm Ewloe.
The death certificate shows he died at Cross tree farm, getting its name from the burnt tree.
Is the anyone who has any local knowledge about these farms. I think Cross tree farm became the vets. Corbins I take it has gone? Probably all knowledge about these farms has gone, but anything is most welcome.
regards

I had family from there at that time and Rhyd y goleu. Your family Would probably have known them and as they were Agricultural laborers probably worked together etc. How weird is that. Im just doing that part of the family now...i assume it was all estate. I go there often if you need pictures.
